Conor Jr. "I see stiffness in that 10 pound division"
Ok ok you won the comments
The 1 and only well done sir.
The 1 and only They don't move like me, it's a whole different crawl game
Hands down incredible comment 👏👏👏
The 1 and only lol😂😂
Every time Conor says "Ultimate Fighting Championship" it reminds me of him calling Nate "Nathan" or Eddie "Edward"
Dana White hahaha real talk
Cary De La Torre 😂
Dana!
Nate actually prefers to be called Nathan, but I'm sure he uses it in a condescending way
zGJungle ZG Nate prefers Nathan? Where did he say they that?
Possibly the last Ariel interview with the “old” Conor , before he made his huge paycheck and still seems humble, he was always brash and confident but there’s a stark difference to how he is most times now, could be age, the money, the damage , the losses, drugs/alcohol, but miss this guy
Conor is one of my favorite fighters of all time and unfortunately you’re absolutely right and I agree with you.. I’m truly disappointed in Conor and his downward trajectory.. I truly hope he humbles himself and turns it around..
@@Killacam1992hes our generations mike tyson
There is a significant thing Ariel said at the end. "I know you don´t have to do this". This is characteristic for Conor. He knows that Ariel was there from day one and he did not forget him on the top of his game. Every TV Channel would wish themselves an Interview like this, but he gave it to the (compared to them) the small UA-cam guy. Hats off.
Mostarac199 -- I caught that as well. Ariel was the one who gave Conor the platform to express himself. He has many interviews with him. I admire their relationship & Conor is a good man for not forgetting that either.
And that led to an exclusive with floyd before the fight too.
Piletina time stamp!
Like Conor always says: "Loyalty!"
It's a virtue he respects
Yeah man, harkens back to the Dublin walkabout he did with Conor a few years before, before he went superstar.
"I don't just get knocked on my ass, I pick the round and then lie about it"
-Paulie "unconscious" Malignaggi
Ariel THE GOD Helwani that made my morning mate!!!! 😂😂
God tier
your comment WIN by KO in 1sec.
"Gods recognize Gods" --- Papa John"s
Ariel THE GOD Helwani hahahah
"I felt a push" - Paulie "Overeem" malignaggi
Paulie 'The Reemed' Malignaggi
Best comment.
I laughed by myself
lmao
He clearly felt a push.
conor is so relaxed around Ariel. He lets alot of his guard down.
He certainly is multi-faceted. He's eloquent and obscene, humble and proud, admirable and irritating, inspiring and insulting, and more. He is brutally open, and apparently with the athleticism to back that up. Most interesting man in sports today, bar none.
Crazy Steve true that steve
Born Winner , Mayweather is out of that Legue, Floyd Mayweather is The Boss Of all The Sports Ever , the Grand Master , no joke
I totally agree
@@elisirmelody4697 yeah but he's boring
You can tell mcgregor respects ariel so much. Ariel is a fantastic reporter!
veg head him and Ariel go waaaaayyyy back .. they have history
agree. 1 of the best interview.
cud respect goes both ways he's said respect him and he'll respect you simple
Ben Richardson well yeah but it's mostly because they have history .. Ariel has been interviewing him even before people really knew him
Because ariel was always loyal to him like a good friend.. The guy was always behind him from day 1!!
As mcgregor always says loyalty comes first.. And that's the reason i respect him!
"I felt a tap on my chin" - Paulie "The Italian Stallion" Malignaggi
Gravity is a bully.
TheJking85 _"I think I feel a concussion comin on"_
The only italian Stallion i know is Rocco Siffredi
Rocco Siffredi smashes boxes, that's for sure.
bunga bunga party baby!
I appreciate it when rich people address the fact that yes they're rich, but they still want to maintain a mindset of hard work and not letting the wealth get to their head. I'm so happy he touched on the fact that he doesn't want his son to feel privileged and he still wants him to have motivations and a mindset of working hard in life
because that kind of people got rich by hard work
TripZ true. It takes more then just working in the physical realm. It goes beyond
Fucas101 Guess he was full of shit😂😂😂😂😂
Fucas101 hahaha that statement is obsurd.....if mcrunner wasn't rich he would still be fighting....so clearly his hard work and motivation is long gone....Mcrunner has been on vacation for what years, give me a break with this "maintain a mindset of hard work" hahah
Two years****
I loved how Conor's face lit up when he saw his little boy. The energy and momentum leading up to this fight is massive, and therefore the pressure on him, but his baby can still stop him mid-sentence and put a smile on his face. Now that is sweet!
love the relationship conor and ariel have their interviews never fail to be good
Conor's confidence calms me to a certain degree. I feel like sipping on some tea and kicking back when I listen to him talk about a sure victory over his foes. It's just delightful to me now. I admittedly jumped ship from a casual MMA fan who liked Jose Aldo, to a hardcore MMA fan who absolutely loves Conor McGregor.
Lmfao u lying its just the opposite
Conor and Ariel are the dream team, no one gets a better conversation from Conor than he does. Conor is 100% real with Ariel because he know he can trust him.
You can't listen to Mayweather speak and listen to Mcgregor speak and compare the two. Floyd sounds like such a fake person when he speaks. Conor sounds like a genuine human being. This is why he has my respect.
Victor Contreras your respect means nothing to either of them lol
Your money does so guess who you really like more lol
Mr. CYP did you like your own comment? Lmao scrub
Victor Contreras you're just a mcgregor nuthugger
Yeah the genuine human being that held a goddamn PPV event where he charged his fans to listen to him brag about himself for like an hr. Wow what a great guy!
Do you have any idea what you just said
Aldo : 13 sec push
Alvarez : 4-push combo
Mayweather : pushed in 4 rounds
Jeff Duke 50-0 😁
u shut your mouth at end of the 10 round!!!
Jeff Duke L
I was wondering why Ariel wasn't asking any questions before but now I know why.. he was waiting for this special time. 😁
Some people in America are just way too damn sensitive. Why can't they just look at this for what it is; an MMA fighter & a boxer challenging each other. I don't even consider color / race in this. Everything does not need to be turned into a racial debate people.
Matthew M -- Agree, it's beyond that at this point to me.
C S try living here
Those are Liberals. They like to bring up race for no reason.
C S - It's called rich history and last time I checked in Europe soccer matches the locals throw bananas on the field when teams primarily of African decent play football. Either way the US isn't bad like the news make it seem
C S fr lol
"So what do you think of him talking and ranting on twitter?"
Conor "In my mind it was concussion talk"
LOL I love this guy
Always look forward to these! Got some gold outta this one
"Don't forget your past, pay homage to it, but never stare or you'll end up back there"
Did Conor say that ...if so what part?
Richard Dunne 07:25
Conor's interviews with ariel are always interesting
I was beginning to think that the old Conor was gone. The humble, down to earth guy I remember seeing back when Ariel interviewed him in Ireland in 2014. Good to see it here :) go get em August 26th!
The confidence McGregor has is infectious and amazing! Huge fan of what hes done in such a short time
From unemployed to 100 000 000 in 4 years literally
Ariel looks like Desmond miles from assassin's creed
Shantanu Sharma lmao, you ready for rdr2?
Shantanu Sharma 💀💀😂
CONSPIRACY!!!
Nick Montiel more than ever dude
Jhn
Conor McGregor has proven you are in control of who you want to be in life. How you chose to live is who you will be so live wisely.
Take what is good.
Dismiss the bad.
Add whats yours.
This is the way.
The only interviewer worth listening to. Love this guy
Paulie experienced child birth with that left jab
Jess Riley it was a straight Jess please get it together
Jess Riley 🔥🔥🔥😂😂😂😂😂🏆🏆🏆🏆
He was looking over in the corner like when's the next bell ringing
+Jess Riley Pauli is an average boxer, he's nowhere near the A+ level, let alone the Mayweather league.
+Tom It was a short lead hook mate
Floyd Mayweather pledges the fight 'to all the blacks around the world' - NOW imagine Conor had said " This fight is for all the whites around the world" - IMAGINE THE BACKLASH LOL
RichyDYupYup he ain't got to say it the fans already do lmao
RichyDYupYup,funny that ,cos when asked if he would donate to poor african children he said no ,what have they done for my children.
arabion knights
Haha, ain't that the truth!
RichyDYupYup so wat stfu dork
Floyd is trying to build a picture that he is the champion of the movement that is going on in America. In doing so, he can basically do anything he wants and still win. If he lost, everyone will make it about race. If he won, everyone would say that FINALLY black people have lost 0.0000001% of their oppression with this victory! Utterly ridiculous. You see it everyday on tv, race baiting does numbers. I hope Mcgregor wins so I can see mayweather attempt to read the speech he never practiced because he thought he wouldn't need to.
I like how he wants to show his kid what it took for Conor to provide financial freedom to his son, and not let him grow up with an entitled mindset.
Much Respect!
This is a good interviewer, hit all the most asked questions very eloquently and got the answers. Good o's to him
Beside all the show elements, this guy can have a good conversation. I am not a Maywheater hater, but i am still looking for a good conversation with Floyd where he is not talking about money and money and how much money he has.
AmazighMuslimLion ریال haha sounds like you've never watched a Mayweather interview if you think all he talks about is money.
Damian Scott Ok i will look better bro.
Damian Scott Sorry doesn't exist
Damian Scott wtf are you smoking?
look up the Stephen A Smith Floyd Mayweather interview(full)
Conor is too nice and friendly.
Commando Master Conor like's Ariel and his whole team because he was the only one who gave him a say and attention back when he didn't have the spot lights on him. Conor will always do right by the people who did right by him.
Commando Master I mean it's a interview Fool
Your name is commando master shut your fookin mouth
Just like Trump!
Commando Master . . .
as long as you're not fighting him.
Conor is an example of stoicism, success and for many things he should be a role model. I remember when I wasn't watching UFC that much and I stumbled on one of his fights (it was the early fights he made at the UFC, way before his ascension to this success) and I remember I wanted to find more matches with him as I spotted he moved differently and I knew he was going to go a long way... This video proves how a winning mindset should be.
This video is fake, Ariel would never do an interview without a plaid shirt. #fact
Love that fact that even though he is Blown up more then sports center he still gives Ariel the 30 minute sit down love that loyalty and relationship these two have
Ariel youre the best for having Conor address the Kimmel thing! Great interview! bravo!
patrick crawford its a shame that Conor lied about the Kimmel thing!
He didn't lie. He made a simple mistake. Stop making drama where it doesn't need to be.
James Liddell ---- Greatest Ever agrees with you, read his comment a bit more clearly.
For as many haters there are against Conor.....listening to this interview I can not help but really appreciate and admire his attitude. He is humble and respectful just as much as he puts on the bravado and s talking when the spotlight is on him he is also a genuinely likeable guy.
This is Conor at his best. Humble, down to earth and authentic. Great interview
For about a decade I thought Sam Watson was Al Haymon 😂😂😂 Conor is right. I have no clue what Al Haymon looks like.
Bobby Nobody has seen the man. He's the mysterious boxing promoter in the history of the sport.
Bobby he in the illuminati I bet
I'm pretty sure there only like 4 or 5 pictures of him on the internet
there's like 5 pictures of him that's it
Thats the genius of it
Conor almost made Paulie a quadriplegic with that left-straight. If Floyd eats one of those in 10 ounce or 8 ounce gloves it's night-night.
lucirz lol your right. If he knocks out Floyd everyone is gonna make the excuse that Floyd is 40 and old compared to conor haha.
If pacquiao's left hand couldn't land what makes you think Conor's is? Don't be fooled there's an art to boxing
You're the only black guy I know going for Conor and believes he can win. Smart move my friend
Menelik Watson Lol!! Obviously you didn't see the hits he took from the likes of Sugar Shane, Cotto, Mayorga and Canelo. Are you suggesting that this lying clown hits harder then these guys???
I am a "boxing fucktard" as you say and Mayweather is almost 41, that isn't an excuse, that's a fact. He simply isn't the same fighter he once was and you can tell, especially if you followed him earlier in his career. Make no mistake, Conor is getting an OLD Floyd. Go watch the Floyd Mayweather Vs Arturo Gatti fight to see a prime Mayweather.
Like Conor when he does not act the "McGregor" character.
I like MCGregor for this interview.
Mcgroger needs to be like this all time at all interviews,otherwise on the other side looks like he uses some dangerous chemicals.
John Iga it's called selling the fight
Jack Williford and thats why I treat them like trash
John Iga he still gone get his ass beat lmao
Like who you want to
Compared to other interviews, you feel a genuine and humble warmth from McGregor whenever he speaks to Ariel
Hat's off to Conor for doing interviews with Ariel. You know Dana wouldn't approve, but the man sticks to his guns. Only makes me respect him more.
always the best on topic questions from Arial. What a great interviewer!
9:07 It almost seems Conor was touched by this question and he was trying hard to hold his emotions in. You can tell he is passionate
This is gonna be an iconic interview when we look back years later
Conor im black and I support you too.
Clay Way He's not reading these comments bud
Clay Way You're not the only black person to support him.. Stop seeking attention black man..
Ross L its not attention, its a fact that a high percentage of blacks will support floyd only down to his skin colour.
+Steaminator high percentage of white people support Conor because he's white
Clay Way lol neat .. And...?
I'm happy you took this interview connor. I see you as someone so much more than I did before.
Ariel helwani is the conor mcgregor of mma journalism.
I know exactly what I was going through 5 years ago, and to see what this guy has done in that time is truly astonishing.
Paulie went running. That straight left scrambled his brain
Gotta respect the way he talked about raising his kid.
Making sure he doesn't just give and spoil him, to teach him to work for it
Whereas shown previously, Mayweather just threw $10,000 at his kids telling them "daddys famous go spend it"
Respect to Mcgregor
great man, an example to be followed and learn from. A mindset always looking FORWARD!
Thanks and good luck, always!
Conor kept pretty quiet this camp media wise except for pictures. Fun watching the business tactics of him & Floyd
Dana was kind of right. Conor and the evidence we've been given, I don't feel like it's just gonna be Floyd destroying him right away now. I think Conor actually has at least a 10% chance of winning rather than 1% I thought at first. Dude is persuasive as all hell
Is he? Ive been trying to see what his supporters see but I can't because we talking boxing. If Floyd was as egotistical as Conor and was gonna be in an MMA match i'd feel the same.... But out of your element I guess persuasion is the biggest asset.
4:24 Look at how Mcgregor looks at his son :) true love
i just watched episode 3 of all access and I knew his family doubted him before anyone else. he takes energy this way. and go to work everyday like a monster. he deserves our trust and respect. i love him. he got bullied cause he looked like a child, his family is the reason he is where he is not his coach or anyone else he would have made it with average coaches. so be thankful to this man and dont doubt a mans heart when he is brave and has heart of a lion. his story will long be remembered. peace
Awesome Interview, Keep it up buddy
4:04 You can see Conor reacting to Ariel reaching his arm out. The dude has fighting on his mind 24-7!
Nom de Plume that’s the coke
HUGE POINT: he has a good wife, that's why he is not drained and confused, she is not bringing him down.
I didnt know much about him before.. but after listening to this he has my respect... He seems like upright and honest man.
awesome interview, love it ! :)
"If I was to label him any animal, I'd label him the rat." I died when Connor said that.
'I wouldn't even label him after The Great Ape.' Lmao. With the monkey logo his SBG Ireland team has, the Gorilla on his chest and the fact that he was apparently obsessive about apelike control of motion during his movement motivated McGregor era, I believe him.
Awww man.. seeing Conor's face when he looked at his son. That was cute.
StiffBatster which bit is that?
How can you not like this guy, I've always been a big fan, and this saturday he will show the world how great he is, LET'S GO CONOR :D
Actually really like the way McGregor has stuck with Ariel for his interviews especially after showtime axed him. Cos he remembers Ariel was one of his first journalists to give him his due and had him on before even signed with UFC. Connor respects those who stuck by him. He could've picked a big mainstream journalist or talk show but he didn't. This speaks volumes about his loyalty to everyone that was loyal to him. And Pauly, who I actually liked has been shown for what he is. Another bitter fighter. 👊👊🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🐐👌🏻
Sending love from Boston, you know we got you're back .. Dee you look beautiful, and the baby is adorable. Love y'all xoxo
Such humility is amazing. I like it when he is calm and is articulate in what he talks about. He never forgets who has helped him.
This was an amazing interview your questions were spot on!
Ariel spoke about conors timing in reference to his success but you can't deny ariel the most unbelievable timing he just got .... the only sit down interview with the king as the most credible footage we've seen of his legitimate boxing pedigree and then gets the live reaction ..... my god man lets just start a slow clap for that!
I have so much more respect for him now, so chill calm and confident. Ready to beats the odds. The true mind of a real martial artist.
Just looking at this guy sat down having a relaxed chat, the word 'pinnacle' still springs to mind.
great work as always ariel
This was Conor's most personal and powerful interview ever.. Wow..
I started crying when he talked about teaching his kid about hard work and motivation. Conor is an incredible man. I am cheering u on brother!!!!
Glad to see good interview by somebody who knows what they're doing . Can't keep a good man down
" Never forget where you came from but never stare because you end Up back there ".... Amazing McGregor! 🈴
Ariel knows how it is when people are being referred to as rats.
der ewige jude
Latissimus Dorsi they will stab you in the back for 100$
Frank Rose $100 ?? More like a penny.
Hell yeah, love seeing these two together!
Ariel is the best in the business! He asks tough questions but not to trip up or lead the person, just to give them a chance to give their side. He stays neutral without being a fanboy, but also shows respect and you can tell he is a fan.
The man knows how life is, humble roots and doesn't forget it. For that reason he gets serious respect from me, despite all the hype he produces
I think Conor is enlightened!!😲
Richard Dunne I think you have no idea what that means
Sail Away you one of those religious boys!! I can't use an "Awakened" terminology?
I cant believe how well hes doing. Such an inspiration
Conner never ceases to amaze me with his humbling attitude, passing a legacy down to your son. There is nothing more motivational.
Great interview, Conor speaks really well and has that belief that gives the people the belief he will do 'the impossible'. Cannot wait!!
Had no idea Conor was that intelligent I knew be was smart but he is intelligent and humble - this interview makes me even prouder to be Irish .Great interview.
Ariel really gets a different side of Conor out when he interviews him,
think it might be cos he knew him before he was big time as to why Conor has a
different relationship with him vs all other media and is
automatically more humble
Great job as always, Ariel. I'd like to know Conor's IQ, He's seems incredibly sharp and aware
120
loveforthe90s his business mind and fight IQ is unmatched. He’s very smart in those aspects.
This dude is so well spoken, damn. And his face is spotless
Conor "I want to show my son what hard work can achieve"
Far away shout in the breeze
Floyd "HARDWERK YEEAAAAAH"
"I see stiffness in the 12 Pound division" - Connor mcgregor jr
Loving this interview..good job ariel!
He is very thankful respectful and nice to non ignorant interviewers.
I think paulie really got hurt by those sparrings. So those pictures were way to get out and he ran
lmfaoooooo @11:35
connor: i'm a ruthless individual
subtitles: i'm a rootless individual
I mean, nothing untruthful was said yet...
Hi guys ! I wanted to ask if the match will be shown in Europe, and how can someone see it ? Thanks
His posture and hand placement at times are so powerful, confident, and precise. Men take notes during stressful situations to sit and hold yourself like this
