Conor McGregor has been in the news as of late due to a possible boxing match against pound-for-pound great Floyd Mayweather Jr.
Back in November, he became the first fighter in UFC history to hold two world titles at the same time when he knocked out Eddie Alvarez at UFC 205 to become the lightweight champion while already having the featherweight belt.
UFC 205 took place in New York City and was coming off of the presidential election in which Donald Trump became president of the United States. While walking down the streets and seeing the news, McGregor saw people protesting the fact Trump won the hard fought election. “Notorious” feels the protesters shouldn’t be blaming Trump for what is happening to you.
“I feel like you’re in charge of your own situation,” McGregor told Zach Baron in a GQ cover story which he graces the cover. “When you start blaming others for your situation, like I see all these people screaming at these politicians and I was like, ‘It’s the wrong mindset!’”
The magazine hits newsstands first in New York and Los Angeles on Feb. 21 and then nationwide on Feb. 28.
