Conor McGregor has posed nude for the front cover of the July edition of ESPN Magazine.
According to SportsJOE, he speaks about ‘body issues’ and credits his Irish genes for serving him well in MMA.
He said:
“I tell you what, them Irish genes are good.
“They’ve served me well. We are made tough. We are made of steel. So I have no doubt the blood in my genes, the Irish blood in me has definitely stood me. My family’s lineage, we are warriors.
“The McGregor clan, we are warriors all through. We are famous all through the world for our fighting capabilities of all generations. So I have no doubt that’s stood to me and that led me down this path and gave me what I have.”
He also admitted to liking a bit of trash talking, saying, “Verbal warfare is another form of warfare, so I look to engage in that 100 percent. It’s just part of the game.”
Conor is included in the ‘body issues’ edition of the magazine, along with more sporting stars, who also posed nude.
