September 27, 2016 | Posted by Jeremy Thomas

Conor McGregor continued to talk trash following the announcement that he’ll face Eddie Alvarez at UFC 205. You can see some highlights from his comments at Tuesday’s press confetrence (via MMAjunkie) below:

On his finances: “I feel by the time 2016 closes out, I’ll be closing in on $40 million. This is a $40 million year for me. A damn good year.”

On Alvarez: “He’s very lucky to be in the position he’s in. He understands that. That’s why he took this fight on the money he was on the last fight. That says it all…He’s just another broke bum trying to sell some (expletive). He’s broke and he’s desperate and he’s trying to make it, ‘McGregor’s this, McGregor’s that.’ We’ve heard it all before. He’s just another broke bum that can’t afford to pay his bills. That’s all it is.”
