Not 'Me and Jesus are cool', although you could imagine Kanye saying something like that.
"Gods recognise Gods," McGregor declared at the press event for UFC 197 (now UFC 196) earlier this year.
The line was delivered with typical panache by the UFC featherweight champion after lightweight champ Rafael Dos Anjos criticised McGregor
for saying he would beat Jesus in a hypothetical fight.
Now it seems that McGregor may have borrowed that witty come-back from rapper and producer Kanye West.
In a 2013 radio interview, located by
reddit use NL Rutger, West declared:
"Anybody that's a God can recognise a God. Jesus would recognise Jesus. Y'all know what it is."
West later commented, "I'm not saying I can't tighten up. I'm not saying I'm infallible."
We can't imagine
The Notorious making such an admission at this stage of his blossoming MMA career.
You can check out West in full, deluded flow at the 3:29 mark.
