Ray Borg Isn’t Surprised By Conor McGregor’s Plea Deal
In an interview with MMA Junkie, Ray Borg said that he wasn’t surprised by Conor McGregor’s plea deal after his attack on a UFC bus earlier this year. Here are highlights:
On the plea deal: “I don’t care. Whatever he got, I don’t really care. I’ve been too focused on my son to really care what’s going on with Conor.”
On if he was surprised: “Even if he wasn’t a celebrity, the way the legal system works nowadays, you do a little bit here and there, make it right, and you’re off to a clean slate. I’ve been in trouble as a young kid, so I know how it works. I don’t know if it has even much to do with him being a superstar. It’s just the legal system.”
On if he would sue McGregor: “I’m kind of a prideful guy. I can still fight for my money. We were very fortunate to get support from the community through the GoFundMe, and that was enough to cover some medical costs for my son. At the end of the day, I know I can still fight. That’s his money. That’s money he earned, and because he took money out of my pocket, it is what it is. We squashed our beef, and I’ll move on and continue to fight.”
