CONOR MCGREGOR LOOKED extremely motivated during the UFC Fight Night Dublin weigh-ins at the O2 this afternoon, promising to take Diego Brandoa’s head off tomorrow night.
‘The Notorious’ clocked in at 146 pounds on the scales, after the Brazilian was tagged at 145.5. Immediately after the weigh-ins, the two fighters squared up, with UFC President Dana White stepping in between the pair.
Brando told a “hostile crowd” that he’s going to “destroy” McGregor in tomorrow night’s fight at the O2.
McGregor responded in kind, grabbing the microphone and stating: “Tomorrow I take his head clean off! Every featherweight’s head I’m coming for. Tomorrow I take his head clean off!”
Check out the video below to see McGregor and Brandao’s weigh-ins (from 26.00 onwards):
In the earlier weigh-ins, Irishmen Patrick Holohan, Cathal Pendred and Neil Seery got rousing receptions, while Northern Ireland’s Norman Parke also had strong support.
Things have unsurprisingly stepped up a notch after this afternoon’s prelude. Tomorrow night can’t come quick enough.
That was fecking late as I was in the pub watching the match.
Jumped ship before the misses got home and now only see that they won.
Can they just give O’Shea the job now? He clearly loves it, is getting the right reaction from the Players and who the hell else is there?
@cian nolan: we’re acc very lucky he’s looking for it because no alternative id have any faith in would touch the job
you can say that again
Should have passed that ball. Got away with murder as it was not a great shot. Would have been a terrible ending if he missed.
