In (very explicit) quotes: Conor McGregor absolutely owns Floyd Mayweather in Toronto

"When Floyd was 28 he was on Oscar De La Hoya’s undercard, and that’s just facts.”

People were left a little bit deflated after Tuesday’s press conference in Los Angeles but Wednesday did not disappoint.

The Irish fans were out in force in Canada for the second stop of the McGregor vs. Mayweather tour and they were given quite a show.

Most people were surprised that Mayweather was the more impressive of the pair on Tuesday but it was the Irishman that stole the show in Toronto.

We had more than a few absolute zingers from the 28-year-old Crumlin fighter.

These were the quotes of the night…

Warning: You didn’t really expect the language to be clean, did you? Flip that. 

“On the count of three I want everyone to scream at the top of your lungs ‘Fuck the Mayweathers!’”

“While we’re at it, fuck Showtime too. Look at you, you little weasel, you little fucking weasel I can see it in your eyes. You’re a fucking bitch.”

“They try to set me up at every turn out here, they’re trying to catch me off guard, trying to see me in an uncomfortable position but I thrive in uncomfortable positions. There is nothing these can do to phase me.”

“Twenty-eight years of age, I’m getting fight cheques and promoter cheques. When Floyd was 28 he was on Oscar De La Hoya’s undercard, and that’s just facts.”

“Floyd is an old, weak bitch.”

“Fifty strippers on his payroll this man has, what the fuck is he doing with that strip club?”

“Shoutout to all the stripper bitches on his payroll. At least Rob Kardashian only had one, he has 50.”

“Toronto, what a fucking city. I was here one time two years ago or three years ago. I was also on a world tour, I was also facing an unconquerable quest, I was then fighting the pound for pound number one fighter on the planet José Aldo. They said the same things then as they’re saying now. They said I had ‘no chance’, they said I’m ‘in over my head’; they said ‘he kicks too hard, too many weapons’. They said ‘the Irishman’s going to fall short, he doesn’t stand a hope’. It took me 13 seconds.”

“You’re fucking crazy if you think this man stands a chance, his head is too small.”

“I bounce heads off the canvas.”

“He’s boxing’s biggest bitch.”

“Shout out to ‘Drizzy’ Drake, started from the bottom now I’m here.”

“What the fuck is he wearing, he looks like a little 12-year-old break-dancer bitch.”

“You’re 40 years of age, dress your fucking age carrying a schoolbag on stage, what are you doing with a schoolbag on stage? You can’t even read. Forty-years-old carrying a schoolbag, the man doesn’t even fucking read.”

“Showtime executives, just know whatever situation you put me in I always come out on top.”

 

“You love me.”

“They want you off this stage boy, you’re embarrassing yourself up there.”

(Looking in Floyd’s bag) “That’s it? There’s about five grand in here, fuck me.”

“Just know if you do something with that flag you ain’t getting this bag or this money back and I’m going to fuck you up on this stage.”
