Katie Taylor believes Conor McGregor isn’t getting the respect he deserves in Ireland
Ireland’s finest women’s boxer Katie Taylor recently appeared on Ariel Helwani’s MMA Hour.
Talking about her countryman Conor McGregor, Taylor stated that the ‘Notorious’ did not get the respect he deserved in Ireland.
Comparing him to Muhammad Ali, Taylor said:
“He’s always been a fantastic support to me, but I think he’s just someone who’s actually transcended the sport. He’s like, for me, the Muhammad Ali of the UFC. He’s just a fantastic athlete. A great businessman as well. But what he’s done in the sport and the UFC has been absolutely incredible, and I don’t think he’s celebrated as much as he should be here in Ireland. I think he is an absolute global superstar and just a phenomenal athlete, and he’s always been a complete gentleman towards me.” [via MMA Fighting]
