Conor McGregor may have an edge over Floyd Mayweather, by any chance their fight will come into realization, former MMA Champion Anderson Silva expressed on an interview. Silva considers McGregor's supremacy in creative striking, being the best with the technique.

Conor McGregor recently showed off his luxuries when he attended a Q&A event at Manchester. He rode a private jet, entertained, had selfies with, and partied a crowd of 5,000. He is known to do whatever he wants, and has the guts to do so because of his current status in UFC, as reported by Mirror.
