Wednesday marked the three-year anniversary of Conor McGregor's induction into the ranks of the Ultimate Fighting Championship, and The Notorious made sure to remind his peers of the date prior to his rematch against Nate Diaz on July 9 at UFC 200.
Taking to his official Twitter account, McGregor made light of his assumed ability to hand his opponents larger paydays just by lining up opposite him in the Octagon—also noting he's yet to receive thanks for his gifts:
3 years ago today, I began my crusade to take all you bums from 5 figure paydays to multi seven figure paydays.
— Conor McGregor (@TheNotoriousMMA) April 6, 2016
And not even a thank you.
McGregor remains defiant even after suffering his first UFC defeat to Diaz last month, when he was submitted via rear-naked choke in the second round of their clash at UFC 196.
Nevertheless, the Irishman showed on Wednesday that he's happy to look past the lows and concentrate more on the highs, all the while delivering one of his trademark blows to the rest of the promotion's fighters.
