Conor McGregor describes quiet training camp for UFC 329
With his rematch with Holloway fast approaching, McGregor is
feeling the benefits of a solid training camp. He claims his team’s
“no flash” approach in preparation for UFC 329 will aid him going
into the bout.
“I feel great. I feel absolutely amazing. Stellar,” The former
two-division champion told The Mac Life. “The work has been
exceptional. No corners cut. You know, no flash. We’ve been quiet
this camp, and we’ve been at work. So, that’s confidence. If
there’s a lack of confidence, you need to share things to get this
ego boost. We don’t need it. We’ll do it on the night. I’m excited
by it. I’m excited by my team and my country.”
Notably, McGregor vs. Holloway will be contested at welterweight.
The former has already competed three times at 170 pounds, while
the latter will make his debut in the division at the upcoming
numbered event.
