UFC Fight: Conor McGregor Swears To Slam Critics in Showdown with Jose Aldo

The  Irish mixed martial artist - Conor McGregor, is eager to fight the Brazilian mixed martial artist Jose Aldo for UFC 194 - Ultimate Fighting Championship featherweight title on December 12 and it will be held in Las Vegas, Nevada.

Conor McGregor, who holds a spectacular 18-2 UFC record, said that he has perceived a number of negative comments about him with less than a month before his highly anticipated showdown with the fourth and final WEC Featherweight Champion - Jose Aldo. But, Conor McGregor, the current UFC Interim Featherweight Champion, will not allow his detractors to affect his undertaking, as McGregor vowed to prove his doubters wrong next month at the UFC 194.

Conor McGregor spoke out to Severe MMA via MMA Fighting (Mixed Martial Arts Fighting), "I'm hungry right now. I'm prepared to kill this man, and unify the belts, and then what will they have to say? We'll see what they have to say after Jose Aldo falls. Jose is the No. 1 pound-for-pound. We'll see what they have to say after Jose crumbles inside one."

Conor McGregor was originally slated to fight against Jose Aldo for the title at UFC 189 in July, but the defending champion (Jose Aldo) was forced to withdraw from the UFC 189 after sustaining a rib injury. Instead, Conor McGregor faced the #3 in the official UFC featherweight rankings - Chad Mendes, who eventually took a second-round knockout loss in UFC 189 in July .

McGregor said that he initially asked the promoters to set another date for the reason that it will be too early for him to have a fight in December. He was also worried that Jose Aldo might hurt his ribs again, however, McGregor quickly added that all signs are pointing to positive things heading into their matchup.

Conor McGregor stated, "I said to them, 'It's a little too early for Aldo.' Because of his ribs and his body.I just thought he's going to rush into camp again and it could hamper it and he could pull out again. But we're getting close now. All signs point that he will show up. I hope he does."

Aldo on his part, announced that he is all set to defend his title against McGregor.
