They call Conor McGregor ‘Mystic Mac’ because he predicts things. And another example of ‘Notorious’ predicting his future, and to soccer megastar Cristiano Ronaldo, no less has emerged. McGregor himself posted an old video of him talking to ‘CR7′ about the Champions League winner being number one on Forbes’ highest-paid athlete list.

The Irishman can be seen telling the former Portugal captain that while he himself was in the thirties, he will catch up with him soon, and be number one on the list. Ronaldo could be seen jokingly disagreeing with the Irishman, but McGregor would prove him wrong soon after. Sure enough, just a few years later Conor McGregor was officially Forbes’ highest paid athlete of 2021.

McGregor took this opportunity to motivate his fans with a caption from his heart. “Predicting my future with the bro, @cristiano! Stand proud behind your dreams, your aspirations, your actions, and your words! Stand proud and achieve everything you ever dream and more,” he wrote. What do you think about McGregor’s comments?
