UFC Fighters React to McGregor’s TKO Win over Mendes
Conor McGregor walked into a blood-stained octagon last night at “UFC 189” and put on one of the most impressive performances of his career. While it wasn’t as dominant as his past wins, McGregor proved that he is championship material and can hang with the wrestlers in the featherweight division.
Mendes proved to be no slouch, either, and UFC fighters around the world had thought he was in control several times throughout the time. Check out UFC fighters’ reactions to the main event on social media!

Gotta give it to mcgregor. Hard shots and he ate them. But I think if we see a full camp mendes, were looking at completely different fight

Give Chad an immediate rematch, he didn't get out skilled. He fought a guy who was in a 3 month camp and he stepped up on 2 weeks notice.
