Conor McGregor has been saying for months that he would take over boxing once he defeated Floyd Mayweather in their highly anticipated showdown.
That did not happen Saturday night at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, with the UFC lightweight champion succumbing to a 10th-round TKO in his professional boxing debut.
But you know McGregor. He’s always looking to take over something, and he’s got his sights set on “the Irish whiskey market” with his own line of whiskey aptly named “Notorious.” He showed up to the post-fight press conference in a jovial mood, carrying a bottle and enjoying a glass.
“Oh, that whiskey takes so good,” McGregor told the media. “Oh, (expletive). Notorious Irish whiskey coming soon. I’m going to take over the Irish whiskey market, and this is delicious.”
