Conor McGregor Gives On Brand Response To Criticism About His Awful First Pitch

Conor McGregor knows a thing or two about press.

For the MMA superstar, any press is good press. On Thursday, UFC star Conor McGregor addressed the criticism he’s been getting about his awful first pitch at the Cubs game earlier this week. Just in case you missed it, Conor threw out a horrific first pitch, with many immediately conjuring up images of 50 Cent’s infamous first pitch.

Conor weighs in on the fuss over his stinky pitch:

“The audacity to compare mine with this piss! Picture to picture alone buries this. Mine, bar the accuracy, was the most powerful and fastest first pitch of any of these other athletes/ artist over the years. No comparison. Smoke them up and down that Forbes I do. Get Messi over. Smoked. Cris. Smoked. Federer. Doubled. All time Most Power! Put me in the Wrigley hall of fame for that rocket launch. Beside some of that nice red brick. Mahogany Oak Frame. Wimbledon lines in the grass. The great Wrigley Field reminds me of the grounds on my land in Ireland. Impeccable. Anyway back to the pitch.. Venom. Composure. Balance! The gold bar of Patek almost came flying off me it was that fast and powerful. I’d take it back to @patekphilippe for adjusting but this watch is now discontinued. A rare. I Bought for 80k in Weirs jeweler of Ireland and today it is worth close to 500k. And going up. Fifty has a nice hublot too. Big Bang. Small bucks 50cent. One has power. One is the director of media relations for some show called power.
You know what it is. The Mac in Chicago!”

Conor needs to win another fight because without his kicking ass in the octagon, his over confidence is getting stale.

Win a fight or shut the fook up.
