The Donegal man responds.
Earlier this week Conor McGregor was his typically bullish self when, once again, he was asked about the last man to beat the Notorious, Joseph Duffy.
The Dubliner is unimpressed by his rivals recent record and the man who will be a major feature at UFC Dublin next month.

The current interim featherweight champion has often said that he would love a rematch with the Ulster man at some stage to set the record straight between the two men, and Duffy has today responded to McGregor’s taunts.
In a Q+A this afternoon the Donegal man says he would would love to face the Notorious once again,
‘Course, when that comes up I’ll take it in a heartbeat. I already said I would back at 189.”
There is speculation that any fight between the two Irishmen could take place at Croke Park, although it seems unlikely that any title fight, if McGregor was to beat Aldo in December in Las Vegas, would take place outside of America.
Duffy is in the midst of preparation for the sold out UFC Dublin event where he’ll take on Dustin Poirer next month. The former boxer feels the fight will be an epic.
“I think me and Dustin is going to be a five round war. It’s going to be a fan favourite for sure. I’,m not too nervous about the next fight, just concentrating on improving and it will all take care of itself.
“I never make predictions o what round. I believe I’ll win the fight.”
The Irishman has also revealed that he is yet to be drug-tested by any UFC testers but that he has used the IV for the last two fights he was involved in.
The Donegal man reveals that his IV use is monitored by a nutitionist.
“I used the IV for the last few fights. I thought it was great and I work with a nutritionist George Lockhart and he’s a big believer in rre-hydrating without the drip too.”
“So I’ll be using George for this camp too. if he feels you can re-hydrate perfectly without it I;’ll take his advice on that too. “
