Conor McGregor explains that he hasn’t had “sparring sessions” in preparation for Mayweather

UFC lightweight champion Conor McGregor took center stage at today’s UFC Performance Institute in Las Vegas.

“Mystic Mac” headlined the second consecutive media day for his upcoming super fight with boxing legend Floyd Mayweather – who had been featured yesterday evening from his own gym in Sin City.

In addition to putting on an open workout (watch those videos here), the UFC’s current lightweight champion of the world also took time to speak with members of the media.

The Irish superstar touched on a number of different topics, including why he had passed on training with current WBO Super Featherweight Champion Vasyl Lomachenko.

In addition to that, “The Notorious” one discussed what his camp was like in preparation for his upcoming showdown with “Money” Mayweather.
