Brandao on McGregor: 'Calling himself The Best Is Bull$h*t'
BJPENN.COM News - June 4, 2014
“Saying that he’s the best in the world is bullshit. Obviously, he’s not. He knows that he’s not, and he has a lot to prove to be a top 10 in the UFC. Talking trash only makes me more motivated to train for the fight. While he’s talking, I’m training.” “I don’t feel any pressure at all. I’ve been through a lot of things in my life, so fighting in Ireland, Brazil or United States doesn’t matter to me. I actually like this, to be honest. I’m sure that the arena will be full of Brazilians because there are a lot of Brazilians in Ireland. I know that the Brazilians will be there to support me.”

He’s walking to be a test for me, that’s the difference.” “I believe what I’m saying is the truth. None of these guys are on my level. Not one of them moves the way I move, not one of them are prepared for what I’m bringing. I can sit here and say this all day and I can say it every single interview and I do say it every single interview, but at the end of the day it comes down to when it actually happens. That’s what I’m working towards.
