“In Conor’s words, I am red panty night for all these bums. Half these lightweights must have posters of me on their wall because they don’t shut up about me. It’s embarrassing, lad. Some of them don’t stop going on about me on social media. You’re like lad, go and do something with your life, stop talking about me to get some publicity.” [Transcript courtesy of BJ Penn]
