UFC Bad Blood: McGregor Spars with Southpaws

Trailer0 Comments

UFC releases a second trailer for Bad Blood, showing McGregor sparring with southpaws, including Wallace.

I’m certainly preparing a lot more specific. Usually, I don’t prepare specific, because they always pull out, every time. I know Nate will show up. This time I know this fight will go down. This time I know I’ll be facing a tall, lanky southpaw, with the height, the weight, and the reach on me. So I am preparing accordingly…I’m feeling very confident. It’s gonna be a bad night for Nate.

Kavanagh:

For the first fight we didn’t even have one training session with a similar opponent. Now, it’s all we’ve done for the last few months.
