I go out there, I finish Conor in an emphatic fashion, and I don’t take any damage. I turn right around and fight Islam for the title.”

He further explained, “Or if the UFC has a momentary lapse of judgment and doesn’t give me the title shot against Islam or whoever has the title, then I fight Nate Diaz at the sphere in September. I can make a quick turnaround. I’m built for this; I could fight five times a year if I need to. So that’s my plan right now, but it starts in June with decapitating Conor McGregor.”
