"That’ll be some hangover" - Fans react to woman getting Conor McGregor quote tattooed on her arm
People have been reacting to Conor McGregor's recent post, which contained an image of a fan who got a tattoo of his quote on her arm.
McGregor has delivered a lot of iconic lines on the mic throughout his career. Perhaps what stands out as his best is when he said:
"I would like to take this chance to apologize to absolutely nobody."
'The Notorious' had just defeated Eddie Alvarez in stunning fashion at Madison Square Garden during UFC 205 when he made this statement. The first double champion in UFC history got hold of the mic in his post-fight interview, following his inital comments with, "The double champ does what the f*** he wants," as his second belt was given to him.
Fast forward to 2022, and a fan has gotten a tattoo of the first quote quote on her arm. McGregor posted the image on his social media, writing:
"To this lady, reach out to me, I love you."
Fans reacted to the image with mixed emotions. One fan jokingly wrote on the Irishman's Facebook page that alcohol must have been involved in the lady's decision to get the tattoo.
"That'll be some hangover."
Others bashed the tattoo artist, pointing out that the ink work could have been a lot better.
Nevertheless, this just goes to show the unprecedented popularity and impact Conor McGregor has among fans. He is truly a one-of-a-kind superstar when it comes to MMA.
Watch Conor McGregor's famous UFC 205 octagon interview:
Conor McGregor put on a show against Eddie Alvarez at UFC 205
McGregor was initially scheduled to fight Rafael dos Anjos for the lightweight title at UFC 196. However, dos Anjos had to pull out due to an injury, so McGregor, who at the time was still the UFC featherweight champion, fought Nate Diaz twice before eventually challenging for the 155 lbs belt at UFC 205.
Eddie Alvarez, on the other hand, had just defeated 'RDA' to capture the title, and he looked as though he was in top form. Many believed McGregor might have made a mistake taking on an accomplished lightweight like Alvarez in his first UFC fight in that division.
That wasn't the case whatsoever, as he completely destroyed Alvarez and earned a second-round toppage. To this day, the fight is considered the Irishman's best performance inside the octagon, making his work on the mic after the fight a perfect follow-up.
