"I don’t give a f*ck about them" - When Conor McGregor revealed his wish to see the Kardashians "in the flesh"
Conor McGregor has long cemented himself as a larger-than-life figure in the world of mixed martial arts. He has rubbed shoulders with celebrities from the entertainment and music industries and has also never held back from speaking about them.
Back when 'Notorious' reigned supreme as the UFC's first simultaneous double champion, he did a popular interview with GQ Style. The interview previewed a potential big-money fight against Floyd Mayweather and his professional boxing debut but veered off into each of his interests.
One comment from McGregor that stood out concerned the popular entertainment family of the Kardashians – Khloe Kardashian in particular. 'Notorious' made some questionable statements upon being asked what he planned to do on his holiday in Malibu:
“Maybe I’ll search for Khloe’s [Kardashian] big fat a*s. She’s been floating around Malibu. I don’t give a f*ck about them. I just like to see them in the flesh. Yeah, just see what the big fat as*es on them look like. Not about admiring. Admire? Never. What's the saying? Never put the p*ssy on a pedestal, my friend. I just want to see it. I want to see them.” [h/t GQ]
The Irishman later responded to the scrutiny of his comments by citing that they were misinterpreted. However, the article by GQ Style remains up on their website. You can check it out here.

Conor McGregor goes after Anthony Smith, rants on Twitter
Conor McGregor took aim at UFC light heavyweight Anthony Smith after the latter criticized him on the Believe You Me podcast.
Smith cited suspicion over McGregor's physique, which is bigger than ever, and the relatively short timeframe required by the Irishman to recover from the gruesome leg injury he sustained in July 2021. 'Notorious' hit back at those comments:
"This rat spoke to weidman [Chris Weidman] who’d the same horrific injury and is having severe complications still, is bothered that I was able to heal/return to a normal way of life. He, like many other rats in my game, would be happier if I wasn’t able to play with my children the same again."
