“I am often asked:“ Why are you fighting?

After all, you are already rich. "

It's true, I have everything.

I guess I'm even richer than Dana White.

But I want to be here and I love doing it!

This is my motivation.

Money and belts - they come and go, but your highlights will stay with you forever!

Look at the highlights of Roy Jones, Mike Tyson, Muhammad Ali - they are eternal!

I want my highlights to be like a movie, so that reality is like a movie.

I want to show them to my son in the future and enjoy.

I just love this game, my life, and don't try to get rid of me! "

McGregor said at a press conference ahead of UFC 257.

In the next bout, the Irishman will face the former interim champion of the organization in lightweight Dustin Poirier.

Earlier, Shlemenko shared his expectations from the McGregor - Poirier fight.
