Conor McGregor's coaches, teammates react to Floyd Mayweather loss

Conor McGregor may not have got the job done against Floyd Mayweather this past weekend, but his solid effort against one of the best boxers in history was still a prideful moment.

McGregor (21-3 MMA, 0-1 boxing) suffered a TKO loss to Mayweather (50-0 boxing) in Round 10 of their anticipated boxing match this past weekend. It was a respectable showing in his pro debut at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, and one that was appreciated by his teammates and coaches.

“The Notorious,” who trains about of SBG Ireland in Dublin, has struck true to his inner circle despite increased success. Those same people stuck by him through the loss to Mayweather.

Any loss or setback absolutely hurts but you cannot let it make you even consider quitting. We're not going anywhere! Proud as always of Conor as he continues to make history putting these unbelievable events together. Thanks everyone for the support, humbled as always. And for the haters….don't worry we'll give you plenty more to post online about ?? Thank you @orlaghhunter for putting up with me the last 2 months xx And yes, that's Charlie on a stripper pole ??

I have nothing but respect and admiration for this man. From a cold damp gym in walkinstown coaching classes on the Mayweather pull counter to stepping in the ring and going toe to toe with the man himself, looking like he more than belonged there. You're some man for one man @thenotoriousmma. Keep doing us all proud ?? #SBG #maymac #mma #ufc #boxing #happy #proud #grateful #irishpride #somemanforoneman #gamechanger #nothingbutrespect
