• 1:12
  Speaker 3: the body. It's just the tour connected so well with him.
• 1:17
  Speaker 3: When you see, believe it, achieve it, That's the way
• 1:20
  Speaker 3: it goes.
• 1:21
  Speaker 4: The greatness began with the love of his art, and
• 1:26
  Speaker 4: like a true artist, he painted that canvas every day
• 1:31
  Speaker 4: with blood, sweat, tears, elbows, kicks, left hooks. Like a
• 1:38
  Speaker 4: true artist, he has mastered his tools, and he has
• 1:41
  Speaker 4: dedicated his life to his art. This love soon turned
• 1:51
  Speaker 4: into obsession.
• 1:52
  Speaker 5: He has dedicated his life to his art, and he
• 1:56
  Speaker 5: has lost his mind in the process. Given every single thing,
• 2:02
  Speaker 5: every ounce of my life to this craft, to perfecting
• 2:05
  Speaker 5: my craft, and I continue to do so, and in
• 2:07
  Speaker 5: the process I have lost my mind.
• 2:10
  Speaker 4: The great man is one who seizes his dreams. We
• 2:15
  Speaker 4: might call the jugular vein. He offers all his energies
• 2:20
  Speaker 4: upon that and strikes with ferocity. No task is out
• 2:26
  Speaker 4: of his realm, not even greatness.
• 2:29
  Speaker 5: That's what I'm looking for, and I mean to build
• 2:30
  Speaker 5: a legacy to be remembered as one of the greats.
• 2:35
  Speaker 5: All In is a term I like to use in
• 2:37
  Speaker 5: my ventures. All In We've got to be all in
• 2:39
  Speaker 5: on our ventures.
• 2:42
  Speaker 4: If you're going to try go all the way, otherwise,
• 2:48
  Speaker 4: don't even start. If you're going to try go all
• 2:53
  Speaker 4: the way, this could mean losing girlfriends, why, relative jobs,
• 3:02
  Speaker 4: and maybe your mind. Go all the way, it could
• 3:08
  Speaker 4: mean not eating for three or four days. It could
• 3:12
  Speaker 4: mean freezing on a park bench. It could mean jail.
• 3:17
  Speaker 4: It could mean derision, mockery, isolation. Isolation is the gift.
• 3:25
  Speaker 4: All the others are a test of your endurance, of
• 3:29
  Speaker 4: how much you really want to do it. And you'll
• 3:33
  Speaker 4: do it despite rejection and the worst odds, and it
• 3:38
  Speaker 4: will be better than anything else you can imagine. If
• 3:43
  Speaker 4: you're going to try go all the way, there is
• 3:48
  Speaker 4: no other feeling like that. You will be alone with
• 3:52
  Speaker 4: the gods, and the knights will flame with fire. Do it,
• 3:58
  Speaker 4: do it, do it, do it all the way, all
• 4:05
  Speaker 4: the way. He will ride life straight to perfect laughter.
• 4:11
  Speaker 4: It's the only good fight there is.
• 4:17
  Speaker 5: I always knew when I got here, I was going
• 4:18
  Speaker 5: straight for the jugglar.
• 4:19
  Speaker 6: I was going straight for everyone's neck.
• 4:21
  Speaker 5: You know.
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: I'd rather shoot and miss than not shoot at all.
• 4:25
  Speaker 4: When Connor first painted his dreams in his mind, he
• 4:29
  Speaker 4: didn't aim small He didn't paint his dreams based off
• 4:32
  Speaker 4: his circumstances or based on other people's opinions. Connor didn't
• 4:37
  Speaker 4: aim to be a local fighter, not a local champ,
• 4:42
  Speaker 4: not even a competitor on the biggest stage. He didn't
• 4:46
  Speaker 4: even aim to be a champion because he went straight
• 4:49
  Speaker 4: for the jugular champ, champ number one on the fourth list.
• 4:55
  Speaker 4: He aimed for these goals when he had nothing, when
• 4:59
  Speaker 4: others would have considered him a failure with no job.
• 5:03
  Speaker 4: People may dream this big, but they don't commit to it,
• 5:07
  Speaker 4: they don't work towards it with all their energy. But
• 5:11
  Speaker 4: Connor attacked this dream with one hundred belief in accomplishing it.
• 5:21
  Speaker 7: When I heard it the dream, Chow, what it says, tie, Chow,
• 5:27
  Speaker 7: what it says?
• 5:28
  Speaker 2: You get it?
• 5:29
  Speaker 7: You out to pay out to play.
• 5:32
  Speaker 6: If you're in the game, and make sure you're in
• 5:33
  Speaker 6: it all the way, all in with it, and.
• 5:35
  Speaker 7: Then that game will be here game so you're real move.
• 5:38
  Speaker 8: It aside, full speed up ahead of me, slow down?
• 5:42
  Speaker 6: What the game is full of shots?
• 5:44
  Speaker 9: But I'm.
• 5:46
  Speaker 7: Say Chow would say, Chow, what it says you out
• 5:51
  Speaker 7: to play?
• 5:52
  Speaker 6: It's a rubeless, rootless game.
• 5:53
  Speaker 5: You have to be willing because you can go in
• 5:55
  Speaker 5: there and when you come out you're a different parents.
• 5:58
  Speaker 6: It's like entering a car crash. You're going into a
• 6:01
  Speaker 6: car crash. The shin's a bear, the feet a bear.
• 6:03
  Speaker 6: You can strike with the elbows, the knees.
• 6:05
  Speaker 5: It's a vicious, vicious game, and you've got to be
• 6:07
  Speaker 5: fully committed, and you've got to be willing.
• 6:09
  Speaker 6: To go all the way.
• 6:25
  Speaker 10: You have a monster right here at forty five although
• 6:27
  Speaker 10: about to beat your rash.
• 6:28
  Speaker 6: You've beat nobody and you think.
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: You're gonna coming to onety five mega statement?
• 6:30
  Speaker 7: Come on, man, said the fuck down.
• 6:32
  Speaker 6: I think the only way anybody at one gonna meet.
• 6:35
  Speaker 11: Jose Aldo in the next five years if they catch
• 6:38
  Speaker 11: him walk he's sleeping in bed.
• 6:40
  Speaker 12: Uh So I gotta go with Jose Aldo.
• 6:42
  Speaker 10: Nobody likes McGregor obviously, and.
• 6:46
  Speaker 13: Found this guy been the king of one five for reason.
• 6:50
  Speaker 12: Man, Like he's in a different level. You know, he's
• 6:54
  Speaker 12: one of the best of the whole times.
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: And I really believe he's gonna knock knock.
• 7:01
  Speaker 14: I think all those gonna tear him up.
• 7:02
  Speaker 6: I would just put my money on Jose Aldo.
• 7:04
  Speaker 13: If you think that Connor is gonna win.
• 7:05
  Speaker 14: You may need to go back and watch some Jose
• 7:07
  Speaker 14: auto highlight.
• 7:08
  Speaker 6: He hasn't fought anybody like al though.
• 7:10
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I just think although can beat him to the
• 7:12
  Speaker 5: punch and beat him, you know, beat up his legs.
• 7:13
  Speaker 15: And I don't think.
• 7:15
  Speaker 13: I don't think it.
• 7:15
  Speaker 16: Last was gonna take him and break hip, and fucking
• 7:19
  Speaker 16: all those O'Connor.
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: The whole industry thought this was.
• 7:26
  Speaker 14: The one and he's not gonna overcome this. I smiled
• 7:32
  Speaker 14: at myself.
• 7:45
  Speaker 6: I was just say, you don't keep with a dream.
• 7:47
  Speaker 6: And I believe in himself.
• 7:48
  Speaker 5: For many times I was laughed at and I believed him.
• 7:50
  Speaker 5: But you know what, nothing external can can defeat the internal.
• 7:57
  Speaker 5: The only thing that he takes someone down and breaking
• 7:59
  Speaker 5: down is he internal. Nothing external is strong enough. It's
• 8:02
  Speaker 5: just about making sure your internal dialogue and your internal
• 8:05
  Speaker 5: belief in yourself are strong enough that it can withstand
• 8:08
  Speaker 5: the external. Seeing in me here, it's not surprised and
• 8:11
  Speaker 5: I've visualized it.
• 8:13
  Speaker 14: No matter what people say.
• 8:14
  Speaker 5: People, you put me in a fucking real people because
• 8:16
  Speaker 5: trow bricks at me and call me every name on
• 8:19
  Speaker 5: the sun and still walk out and there taken underdown
• 8:20
  Speaker 5: one They're only taking under number one.
• 8:22
  Speaker 14: That's that's the why I just feel I don't have
• 8:24
  Speaker 14: a fuck.
• 8:27
  Speaker 4: It seems that the higher you climb, the more people
• 8:31
  Speaker 4: want to knock you down, the further you have to fall.
• 8:35
  Speaker 4: In order to have the confidence that Connor has, it
• 8:38
  Speaker 4: is imperative that he eliminates the doubt of others.
• 8:42
  Speaker 16: Connor has taken on the principle.
• 8:43
  Speaker 4: Of Stoic philosophy, more specifically, the teachings of epictet Us.
• 8:48
  Speaker 4: Some things are within our power, while others are not
• 8:52
  Speaker 4: within our power. Our opinion, motivation, desire aversion, and in
• 8:56
  Speaker 4: a word, whatever is in our own doing not within
• 9:01
  Speaker 4: our power, or our body, our property, reputation, office, And
• 9:05
  Speaker 4: in a word, whatever is not of our own doing,
• 9:10
  Speaker 4: make the best use of what is in your power,
• 9:14
  Speaker 4: and take the rest as it happens. Through the use
• 9:17
  Speaker 4: of this philosophy, Connor has been able to remove all
• 9:21
  Speaker 4: external factors, no doubt, no fear, no lack of confidence.
• 9:25
  Speaker 4: Connor claims that the only opponent is himself. Once you
• 9:30
  Speaker 4: allow doubt to seek in, you have already lost the battle.
• 9:35
  Speaker 4: His mind is impenetrable and, in his own words, bulletproof.
• 9:40
  Speaker 4: Because Connor understands the importance of protecting the internal.
• 9:44
  Speaker 16: Without all these external factors, it is quite simple.
• 9:49
  Speaker 5: I feel free. That's why I'm saying I don't feel
• 9:53
  Speaker 5: pressure on fight makee. I don't feel pressure when I
• 9:55
  Speaker 5: make that work. I honestly feel like I'm unshacking the chaine.
• 9:59
  Speaker 14: Off of it.
• 10:00
  Speaker 5: I get it out octagon, I'm peeling it all off.
• 10:03
  Speaker 5: And when I finally step foot out alteragon and place
• 10:05
  Speaker 5: my bare feet on that special UFC canvas, I feel free.
• 10:09
  Speaker 4: Bruce Lee once said, it is not daily increase. The
• 10:13
  Speaker 4: daily decrease, hack away the Unessentially, you're closer to the source,
• 10:18
  Speaker 4: the lesson wasted. All these external factors are unessential. There
• 10:23
  Speaker 4: is no need to hear the words of critics. There
• 10:25
  Speaker 4: is no use in worrying over the opponent. It does
• 10:28
  Speaker 4: no good to question your ability. When Connor steps into
• 10:31
  Speaker 4: that octagon, he is free. There is nothing to weigh
• 10:34
  Speaker 4: him down or hold him up.
• 10:36
  Speaker 6: The external is there. You've got to accept it. You've
• 10:39
  Speaker 6: got to embrace it.
• 10:40
  Speaker 5: You've got to understand it and be aware of it,
• 10:42
  Speaker 5: but not let it seep into into your internal dialogue.
• 10:46
  Speaker 4: Protect yourself from the narrative that others creates, and then
• 10:51
  Speaker 4: you create your own narrative.
• 10:57
  Speaker 5: After that five, when I lost and I'm looking at
• 10:59
  Speaker 5: all these people and we're all celebrating my demise and
• 11:01
  Speaker 5: saying I'm done, and listen, it certainly lit a fire
• 11:07
  Speaker 5: under my belly.
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: Every single person dealt with me, every single fire, doubt
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: with me.
• 11:13
  Speaker 7: Doubt me now, said, surprise, surprise, motherfucker. The kid is black.
• 11:29
  Speaker 7: You need to be bulletproof to be in this game
• 11:31
  Speaker 7: in your mind.
• 11:32
  Speaker 5: Your mind needs to be bulletproof. You need to be
• 11:33
  Speaker 5: able to take anything that has thrown your way. More
• 11:39
  Speaker 5: external doubt, I love it, Give it to me, Give
• 11:42
  Speaker 5: me all that thou tell me I can't eat something.
• 11:46
  Speaker 7: Doubt me now.
• 11:49
  Speaker 9: On the fucking fielder, I said, empty your mind, be formless,
• 11:57
  Speaker 9: shapeless like water.
• 12:04
  Speaker 4: When he poured out onto the octagon, he took shape,
• 12:07
  Speaker 4: filling the empty vessel, sparking life into the UFC. He
• 12:11
  Speaker 4: captivated a nation. We had never seen this level of
• 12:14
  Speaker 4: entertainment in the fight game. He understood that if he
• 12:18
  Speaker 4: was to fill up this cup, he was to fill
• 12:20
  Speaker 4: it to the brim.
• 12:22
  Speaker 5: The definition of a martial artist is an open mind,
• 12:25
  Speaker 5: is open to all stars of comeback.
• 12:27
  Speaker 14: Nothing is ever wrong you know what I mean. Ever, See, guys,
• 12:30
  Speaker 14: we do this and that's wrong. I do things this
• 12:33
  Speaker 14: way and that way is wrong. What are you doing
• 12:36
  Speaker 14: on that way? That way is wrong? You know what
• 12:38
  Speaker 14: I mean? Nothing is wrong.
• 12:39
  Speaker 5: Like I said about what everything works, a true martial
• 12:41
  Speaker 5: artist is an has an open mind. And of course
• 12:46
  Speaker 5: the true martial artist is peaceful, you know what I mean,
• 12:48
  Speaker 5: peaceful in his approach to life.
• 12:53
  Speaker 4: Always growing, always learning, looking for new paths, flowing, not
• 12:59
  Speaker 4: want to overlook a lesson, humbling victory or defeat.
• 13:08
  Speaker 5: But even before I engaged in combat sport, I was
• 13:10
  Speaker 5: interested in like the wrestling side of things, which is
• 13:13
  Speaker 5: a lot more show. And then obviously Muhammad Ali was
• 13:15
  Speaker 5: a different animal because he was doing it for real.
• 13:17
  Speaker 5: Wrestling's not really for real, it's you know what I mean.
• 13:20
  Speaker 5: But Muhammad Ali was doing it for real, and he
• 13:22
  Speaker 5: was captivating the audience. He was entertainment and he had
• 13:25
  Speaker 5: passionate conviction.
• 13:29
  Speaker 4: In nineteen sixty one, Muhammad Ali met an idol of
• 13:33
  Speaker 4: his gorgeous George, a wrestler who changed the face of
• 13:37
  Speaker 4: the entertainment industry. This meeting would have a great impact
• 13:40
  Speaker 4: on McGregor's life. Arli gave great credit to George. Arli
• 13:44
  Speaker 4: learned a lot from him, all the crucial information for
• 13:47
  Speaker 4: Arli to become such a huge entertainer. Arlie stated that
• 13:51
  Speaker 4: George was a huge inspiration for the way he acted
• 13:54
  Speaker 4: on stage and in the lead up towards the fights.
• 13:57
  Speaker 4: Arli created huge entertainment. The demand for his fight was
• 14:00
  Speaker 4: record breaking. He became a man that people love to
• 14:04
  Speaker 4: hate and a man that nations could get behind. McGregor
• 14:10
  Speaker 4: has given the same credit to Ali. Arlie inspired him
• 14:14
  Speaker 4: to become the entertainer he is, and just like Arli,
• 14:18
  Speaker 4: his fights are always the highest viewed and most talked about.
• 14:25
  Speaker 14: He wasn't that great a talker.
• 14:28
  Speaker 17: Tony met Gog s George, you put water into a cup,
• 14:33
  Speaker 17: it becomes the You put water into a bottle, it
• 14:35
  Speaker 17: becomes the bottle you're putting the teapot, it becomes the teapot.
• 14:40
  Speaker 16: That water can flow.
• 14:41
  Speaker 15: Oh, it can crash the water, my.
• 14:45
  Speaker 4: Friend, We should not be trapped within these rigid mindsets.
• 14:51
  Speaker 4: We must adopt the qualities of water. Bruce Lee was
• 14:55
  Speaker 4: taken by his master down to a river. The master
• 14:58
  Speaker 4: asked him to strike the water, but no matter how
• 15:01
  Speaker 4: hard he struck he couldn't break it. Although it seemed weak,
• 15:07
  Speaker 4: water could penetrate the hardest of substances. Carving pathways through
• 15:12
  Speaker 4: the earth.
• 15:15
  Speaker 5: Every gym had a set way of the own things.
• 15:18
  Speaker 5: Don't do it this way, do it that way. So
• 15:21
  Speaker 5: that was just a normal thing that I thought that
• 15:24
  Speaker 5: just people just have their own set way and you
• 15:26
  Speaker 5: must do it that way. You must stand this way,
• 15:28
  Speaker 5: you must kick this way, you must punch this way.
• 15:31
  Speaker 5: But with John, when I went to John, he had
• 15:33
  Speaker 5: my ownble mind and he encouraged different movements. And I've
• 15:37
  Speaker 5: never experienced that before. I'd never heard a coach say
• 15:40
  Speaker 5: that to me before. And he has a vision that
• 15:42
  Speaker 5: everything walks, and he encourages every movement because ultimately there
• 15:47
  Speaker 5: is a time and a place for every single milve.
• 16:00
  Speaker 4: To be like water is to be fluid in both
• 16:03
  Speaker 4: mind and body. To be like water is to be
• 16:06
  Speaker 4: open minded. It means that you can adapt and change
• 16:10
  Speaker 4: to your circumstances. Water is gentle, yet it can break
• 16:14
  Speaker 4: the impossible. Water does not wait, It flows wherever it
• 16:18
  Speaker 4: is needed. It fills the vessel without hesitation.
• 16:23
  Speaker 6: Everyone's unique, you.
• 16:24
  Speaker 18: Know what I mean.
• 16:24
  Speaker 5: You take, like Bruce Lee said, you take from from everyone,
• 16:28
  Speaker 5: and you use what is useful, and you discard what
• 16:30
  Speaker 5: is not, and you add what is uniquely your own.
• 16:36
  Speaker 19: I will be your se in the fierces battle lot
• 16:41
  Speaker 19: of things.
• 16:42
  Speaker 20: You from all these arrows.
• 16:46
  Speaker 19: In the third I will oh keep you from zangeer siv.
• 16:55
  Speaker 15: Crack, You'll say, I'll score, yeah, oh yeah, yeah, Oh.
• 17:08
  Speaker 6: It's just you and me and the odds.
• 17:10
  Speaker 7: We stuck together.
• 17:11
  Speaker 8: We two peas in the pod get delt a bad hand.
• 17:14
  Speaker 8: I'm there season the cards. We'll never be separated till
• 17:17
  Speaker 8: we see in the guards. We've been dogether high forever.
• 17:20
  Speaker 8: Long as we go together, we'll doubt will never be alike.
• 17:24
  Speaker 8: Couldn't let the dumpist try you ever shooting my word,
• 17:27
  Speaker 8: you ille to never. And when the world gets a
• 17:30
  Speaker 8: little too hard, wipe your eyes, pulled away your sorrow.
• 17:34
  Speaker 8: When it's war, I'll be leading the charge and I'll

• 20:17
  Speaker 10: She let me be seld let me be, s let.
• 20:26
  Speaker 13: Me be, s let me be.
• 20:28
  Speaker 14: You.
• 20:34
  Speaker 5: I'd like to thank all my fans and all the
• 20:36
  Speaker 5: people around the world for the support that that that
• 20:38
  Speaker 5: has been given to me. And it is an honor
• 20:40
  Speaker 5: for me to come back and give entertainment and compete
• 20:45
  Speaker 5: for my fans, and you know, with all that's going
• 20:47
  Speaker 5: on in the world, I truly mean it is an
• 20:50
  Speaker 5: honor to step in and and and and put on
• 20:53
  Speaker 5: my my my performance and take the mind off of
• 20:56
  Speaker 5: what's going on.
• 20:56
  Speaker 11: You know.
• 20:57
  Speaker 5: So one of those early five's they had a stand
• 21:01
  Speaker 5: in who was an Eastern European guy, and then.
• 21:04
  Speaker 13: Connor came out and I know that moment and that
• 21:06
  Speaker 13: was that was a defining moment for me.
• 21:10
  Speaker 4: Boy become man.
• 21:17
  Speaker 16: And when he won the fight, I knew that was it.
• 21:19
  Speaker 16: That's what he was going to be.
• 21:20
  Speaker 13: You know, we always always know that this is gonna happen.
• 21:27
  Speaker 12: It's like it's nearly like we were predicting the future.
• 21:30
  Speaker 20: It's it's weird to.
• 21:31
  Speaker 21: Say, but he just always knew that he was going
• 21:34
  Speaker 21: to get to that next day.
• 21:35
  Speaker 13: A left just every couple of months has.
• 21:38
  Speaker 16: Gone to go and go.
• 21:47
  Speaker 4: Connor has always showed gratitude for the ones who helped
• 21:50
  Speaker 4: him on his rise, his supporters, his family, his team,
• 21:54
  Speaker 4: and his coach. They say that no man is an island.
• 21:58
  Speaker 4: We all needs someone to have people by your side
• 22:02
  Speaker 4: who truly care and push for your dreams.
• 22:05
  Speaker 16: Is a requirement to succeed.
• 22:17
  Speaker 5: There's only one thing that's impossible, and that's to be
• 22:19
  Speaker 5: a man that doesn't give up.
• 22:21
  Speaker 4: It was once said by Sophocles. Without labor, nothing prosperous.
• 22:30
  Speaker 14: I show up at the gym, I train.
• 22:32
  Speaker 5: When I leave the gym, I take down notes of
• 22:35
  Speaker 5: what happened in training, all this scenarios that have recured,
• 22:38
  Speaker 5: on what we learned, what we did.
• 22:40
  Speaker 14: I write that down like homework.
• 22:41
  Speaker 5: I go back to the gym, I repeat.
• 22:45
  Speaker 4: Just a lost young boy from Crumler, a boy that
• 22:48
  Speaker 4: dedicated his life to his craft, consumed by a dream.
• 22:53
  Speaker 4: Committing one hundred percent of his being to an artful
• 22:59
  Speaker 4: labor for him was an impossible task, quite the challenge
• 23:06
  Speaker 4: for a young Irish lad collecting welfare checks.
• 23:12
  Speaker 5: I have given every single thing, every ounce of my life,
• 23:16
  Speaker 5: to this craft, to perfecting my craft, and I continue
• 23:18
  Speaker 5: to do so, and in the process I have lost
• 23:20
  Speaker 5: my mind. To regular society, to people who wake up
• 23:24
  Speaker 5: at nine am, who clock out at five pm, they
• 23:28
  Speaker 5: would look at me and say I've lost my mind.
• 23:30
  Speaker 15: But me, I have found it almost.
• 23:33
  Speaker 4: No promise of reward for his sacrifice, no promise of
• 23:37
  Speaker 4: return for the years in the gym, No promise of
• 23:41
  Speaker 4: retribution for the thousands of doubts that laughed and mocked
• 23:45
  Speaker 4: his dreams, just the knowledge that it is impossible to
• 23:50
  Speaker 4: beat a man that doesn't give up, despite failure after failure,
• 23:57
  Speaker 4: despite loved ones advising him to give upon his dream,
• 24:00
  Speaker 4: despite years of an unpromised goal that seemed to slip
• 24:04
  Speaker 4: further and further away, despite the progress, you realize the
• 24:09
  Speaker 4: closer you get, the harder you have to work, the
• 24:12
  Speaker 4: more you have to sacrifice, the more you learn, you
• 24:16
  Speaker 4: realize that it really is an impossible task. The odds
• 24:20
  Speaker 4: are stacked against you, and only the special can have
• 24:23
  Speaker 4: their dreams. Despite all of this, Connor never gave up,
• 24:28
  Speaker 4: and just one week before his UFC deboras, he cashed
• 24:32
  Speaker 4: his last welfare check for two hundred and thirty five dollars.
• 24:37
  Speaker 6: Connor, another brilliant performance.
• 24:40
  Speaker 11: Thirteen wins, twelve knockouts, unbelieable, your grand life, Thank you
• 24:45
  Speaker 11: very much.
• 24:47
  Speaker 10: Six.
• 25:02
  Speaker 6: It's more like an obsession now.
• 25:04
  Speaker 5: Everything I deal is something to deal with this, you know,
• 25:10
  Speaker 5: everything that's always in my head.
• 25:13
  Speaker 6: I'm always thinking about him.
• 25:15
  Speaker 1: I'm just yeah, I'm definitely obsessed.
• 25:18
  Speaker 4: With I have learned the success is to be measured
• 25:39
  Speaker 4: not so much by the position in which he has
• 25:41
  Speaker 4: reached in life, but by the obstacles which he has
• 25:46
  Speaker 4: overcome while trying to succeed.
• 25:50
  Speaker 5: I've lost my mind there on this game, like pinching
• 25:52
  Speaker 5: my goal dedicated his life.
• 25:55
  Speaker 6: That is, I lost his mind in the process.
• 25:59
  Speaker 10: That's happened to me.
• 26:00
  Speaker 6: But Buggy, that gold builders around my waist. And my
• 26:09
  Speaker 6: mother had a big mansie.
• 26:12
  Speaker 5: My girl friend has a different car for every day
• 26:13
  Speaker 5: of a week.
• 26:15
  Speaker 6: My kids kids, I have everything they ever want. Then
• 26:19
  Speaker 6: it will pay. Then I'm happy. I lost my mind.
• 26:24
  Speaker 14: I'll die a.
• 26:25
  Speaker 6: Crazy old word.
• 26:27
  Speaker 1: God.
• 26:34
  Speaker 6: I don't pay attention to what every man poses problems.
• 26:36
  Speaker 5: I am confident in my own ability, confident in my walk,
• 26:39
  Speaker 5: and that is it.
• 26:40
  Speaker 6: It looks good.
• 26:43
  Speaker 14: That looks good back.
• 26:45
  Speaker 4: The price of success is hard work, dedication to the
• 26:49
  Speaker 4: job at hand, and determination that whether we win or lose,
• 26:53
  Speaker 4: we've applied the best of ourselves the task.
• 26:56
  Speaker 14: And.
• 27:00
  Speaker 6: You're fully committed, things are easy.
• 27:01
  Speaker 1: It's that sample hard. Things become easy when you commit
• 27:04
  Speaker 1: yourself fully. And that's what I've done.
• 27:06
  Speaker 6: Truly believe we are all equal as human beings.
• 27:09
  Speaker 5: If we are obsessed with something, and we truly pursue
• 27:12
  Speaker 5: our passion with everything we have.
• 27:14
  Speaker 1: If you are obsessed, work hard, put in the time,
• 27:17
  Speaker 1: you will succeed.
• 27:18
  Speaker 6: And that is a philosophy that I carry, my coaches carry.
• 27:22
  Speaker 22: And I am an irish animal, a proper irish animal.
• 27:33
  Speaker 6: My career is a career I've never been done before.
• 27:37
  Speaker 4: In Action breeds doubts and fear. Action beats confidence with courage.
• 27:44
  Speaker 4: If you want to conquer fear, do not homely think
• 27:47
  Speaker 4: about it, go out and take it.
• 27:51
  Speaker 6: I've watched myself fight.
• 27:52
  Speaker 5: I've watched myself trying all day long and criticize and
• 27:57
  Speaker 5: sclutinize it and hick every little detail.
• 28:00
  Speaker 14: What way it should be.
• 28:04
  Speaker 6: I know that in order to be.
• 28:06
  Speaker 5: Successful at this game and easily twenty four to seven,
• 28:08
  Speaker 5: I need to be living in this gym. And I
• 28:10
  Speaker 5: set up now is I come here at one or
• 28:11
  Speaker 5: two o'clock in the day, and I'm here at ten
• 28:12
  Speaker 5: o'clock and there's no outside distraction, there's no nothing.
• 28:16
  Speaker 4: To work hard is to tend to your seed of
• 28:18
  Speaker 4: success every day, nurturing it to your full potential.
• 28:26
  Speaker 1: There's two things I've learned from all from these past
• 28:28
  Speaker 1: seven months.
• 28:28
  Speaker 14: Number one is the Highwood plays.
• 28:30
  Speaker 6: Off, and number two is that dream's come true. And
• 28:32
  Speaker 6: that's what's happening.
• 28:34
  Speaker 16: Connor knew what his dream was, and he worked tirelessly
• 28:38
  Speaker 16: for it.
• 28:40
  Speaker 4: Years of sacrifice, years of mental warfare, filled with doubt,
• 28:44
  Speaker 4: failure and challenges. All this with hanging on only to
• 28:49
  Speaker 4: yourself going to be no promise of any reader.
• 28:53
  Speaker 1: When I'm here now and I'm free to just show
• 28:55
  Speaker 1: up and train all day, I am free.
• 28:57
  Speaker 14: I am a gorilla in the jungle. It like the
• 29:01
  Speaker 14: way I see it is right now.
• 29:02
  Speaker 6: I'm free. I don't mind you.
• 29:06
  Speaker 14: I don't see this.
• 29:07
  Speaker 19: Here.
• 29:07
  Speaker 1: We are very fucking night, last man here, last man
• 29:11
  Speaker 1: fucking here.
• 29:11
  Speaker 6: Every every single night you catch me here as I'm
• 29:14
  Speaker 6: here all night. I can't should this switch off.
• 29:20
  Speaker 5: From what got me to where I am and where
• 29:24
  Speaker 5: I continue to go and where I will continue to
• 29:26
  Speaker 5: go is an insane work, eedich, And it's an insane
• 29:29
  Speaker 5: work ethic that can only be You can only put
• 29:32
  Speaker 5: in that amount of work if you were doing something
• 29:34
  Speaker 5: that you are passionate about.
• 29:36
  Speaker 6: And that's what I have.
• 29:37
  Speaker 5: Engaged my entire life's work in things that I am
• 29:40
  Speaker 5: passionate about. You cannot You cannot fully commit to something
• 29:48
  Speaker 5: if you're not passionate about it. So you must look
• 29:51
  Speaker 5: at your surroundings, at the things you were involved in,
• 29:54
  Speaker 5: and ask yourself, you truly passionate about these things, that
• 29:56
  Speaker 5: you truly want to put every ounce of your being
• 29:58
  Speaker 5: into these things.
• 29:59
  Speaker 6: And I am blessed, truly, truly blessed by something. I
• 30:05
  Speaker 6: am not sure what it is, but I am blessed
• 30:08
  Speaker 6: that I was able to find my passions.
• 30:10
  Speaker 5: My passion the fight game, the whiskey game, the fashion game,
• 30:13
  Speaker 5: the fitness game.
• 30:14
  Speaker 6: These are my true passions.
• 30:16
  Speaker 5: And I am going down these, going down them at
• 30:18
  Speaker 5: one hundred mile an hour with no breaks and full
• 30:21
  Speaker 5: confidence in what lies ahead.
• 30:23
  Speaker 6: And and and great things are happening.
• 30:34
  Speaker 13: Right boys, I just was always there on my face.
• 30:49
  Speaker 15: It is.
• 31:01
  Speaker 13: You know, it's things, things real bad.
• 31:03
  Speaker 5: But the fire business I've been on the end of
• 31:06
  Speaker 5: may defeats in my in my life, and I've rows back.
• 31:08
  Speaker 13: So I will shy away from it.
• 31:11
  Speaker 5: I will not make excuses for it.
• 31:13
  Speaker 1: I will assess it.
• 31:15
  Speaker 14: Come back.
• 31:16
  Speaker 4: There is suffering in life, and there are defeats. No
• 31:20
  Speaker 4: one can avoid them. But it's better to lose some
• 31:24
  Speaker 4: of the battles and the struggles for your dreams, than
• 31:28
  Speaker 4: to be defeated without ever knowing what you're fighting for.
• 31:34
  Speaker 14: There is no excuse me. I mean, it's like I've
• 31:37
  Speaker 14: been beat before. You know what I mean.
• 31:38
  Speaker 5: I've lost m I've lost boxing fights. I've lost so
• 31:42
  Speaker 5: many fighting in the gym. You know, I lose all
• 31:44
  Speaker 5: the time.
• 31:45
  Speaker 14: So it is what it is.
• 31:46
  Speaker 5: If you any true martial artists will know, in order
• 31:50
  Speaker 5: to succeed at.
• 31:51
  Speaker 14: This game, you must lose a couple of times. You
• 31:55
  Speaker 14: know what I mean. You must lose many times. You
• 31:57
  Speaker 14: know what I mean, So look to lay, looked, learn from.
• 32:00
  Speaker 14: You know.
• 32:00
  Speaker 5: The day stop trying to learn is the day start losing.
• 32:03
  Speaker 5: So I'm always going to learn, regardless of what. Regardless
• 32:07
  Speaker 5: of the result, you know what I mean, we all lose.
• 32:09
  Speaker 5: I will take something from it.
• 32:10
  Speaker 20: All.
• 32:11
  Speaker 4: Before success comes in any man's life, he's sure to
• 32:15
  Speaker 4: meet with much temporary defeats and perhaps some failures. When
• 32:21
  Speaker 4: defeat overtakes a man, the easiest and most logical thing
• 32:26
  Speaker 4: to do is to quit. That's exactly what the majority
• 32:32
  Speaker 4: of men do.
• 32:34
  Speaker 5: We can either run from adversity, or we can face
• 32:37
  Speaker 5: our adversity head on and conquer it, and that's what
• 32:40
  Speaker 5: I plan to do. I'll face it, I'll take it
• 32:43
  Speaker 5: on the chain and I'll carry on. I'll learn from it.
• 32:47
  Speaker 14: And that's it.
• 32:48
  Speaker 12: We had a big fight and unfortunately this time we
• 32:51
  Speaker 12: came up short. But here's the secret. You will live
• 32:55
  Speaker 12: with it. And we're all disappointed, but we're okay.
• 33:00
  Speaker 11: If you've given it, you're all And in Connor's case, certainly,
• 33:04
  Speaker 11: the last six months have been amazing, the discipline and
• 33:08
  Speaker 11: effort that he's put in. When you've done that, when
• 33:11
  Speaker 11: you've really left no stone unturned, you made every training session,
• 33:15
  Speaker 11: you made way the right way, you've made the walk,
• 33:18
  Speaker 11: You've you competed as hard as you're possibly could well.
• 33:22
  Speaker 12: The competition is acquired and it has.
• 33:24
  Speaker 11: Two sides, winning and losing, and sometimes it's going to
• 33:26
  Speaker 11: fall on the losing side, and that's something that you
• 33:30
  Speaker 11: have to get used to.
• 33:31
  Speaker 12: The quicker you get good at Bailey, the quicker, you're
• 33:34
  Speaker 12: going to have success.
• 33:43
  Speaker 5: I'm not done by any stretching of imagination might handle
• 33:46
  Speaker 5: I'll handle this lost like a champion. I will not
• 33:49
  Speaker 5: shy away from it. I will not make the excuses
• 33:51
  Speaker 5: to it. I lost in there. That was there was errors,
• 33:56
  Speaker 5: but errors can be fixed if you if you face
• 33:59
  Speaker 5: your if you faced him head on and fix them.
• 34:01
  Speaker 5: And that's it.
• 34:03
  Speaker 4: As coach John Kavna would say, win or learn, obstacles
• 34:06
  Speaker 4: are no longer in the way they become the way
• 34:09
  Speaker 4: Connor has faced the fear of failure head on. Every
• 34:12
  Speaker 4: endeavor in his life is an insight into further wisdom.
• 34:16
  Speaker 4: From his martial arts, his business to his family life.
• 34:19
  Speaker 4: Connor believes there is always room for improvement, just like
• 34:22
  Speaker 4: the great Emperor Marcus Aurelius, who remained a student until
• 34:26
  Speaker 4: the day of his death. Using this tenor, Connor has
• 34:29
  Speaker 4: been able to notice pathways towards improvement.
• 34:32
  Speaker 16: That is why he has succeeded in multiple avenues.
• 34:35
  Speaker 1: I make no excuses.
• 34:37
  Speaker 5: This is.
• 34:40
  Speaker 16: It is what it is.
• 34:41
  Speaker 1: I came up shot, I took a chance, it didn't
• 34:45
  Speaker 1: pay off. I'll be back.
• 34:48
  Speaker 9: To do.
• 34:48
  Speaker 11: Not let the fear of failure paralyze you into not
• 34:52
  Speaker 11: even trying. That's the saddest thing. Losing is okay, the
• 34:55
  Speaker 11: saddest thing is not even given it a go.
• 34:58
  Speaker 14: You have not let the.
• 34:59
  Speaker 12: Fear of failure paralyze you.
• 35:02
  Speaker 11: So many people will go through a life in an
• 35:05
  Speaker 11: unhappy job or relationship situation, whatever, for fear of going
• 35:11
  Speaker 11: into the unknown.
• 35:12
  Speaker 4: So when I learned it is the fear of failure
• 35:16
  Speaker 4: that holds so many people back. It is through intimidation
• 35:20
  Speaker 4: of the obstacles ahead that people give up. We must
• 35:24
  Speaker 4: understand that this is the only path we can take
• 35:27
  Speaker 4: towards our destiny. The challenges that lay ahead are part
• 35:32
  Speaker 4: of the process.
• 35:33
  Speaker 5: And you know, you know the way people say you
• 35:35
  Speaker 5: learn you learn more from your losses, and that that
• 35:38
  Speaker 5: is true. You learn a lot from your losses. But
• 35:39
  Speaker 5: as well as that, you learn from your wins. People
• 35:42
  Speaker 5: people can say, let's say you, let's say you beat
• 35:45
  Speaker 5: a guy. Then you're at the beating that guy. You're
• 35:48
  Speaker 5: You're a winner. Now, you know what I mean, You're
• 35:50
  Speaker 5: a winner. So now now I get to put the
• 35:52
  Speaker 5: foot take the foot off the pedal. I don't need
• 35:54
  Speaker 5: to learn so much. I'm at the beating this guy.
• 35:56
  Speaker 5: I'm a winner, you know what I mean.
• 35:57
  Speaker 14: That's going to stop you.
• 35:59
  Speaker 5: I see guys all the time coming in that are
• 36:01
  Speaker 5: around this company since day one, and the performance has
• 36:06
  Speaker 5: just stayed the same.
• 36:07
  Speaker 14: This stagny.
• 36:08
  Speaker 4: If we are not growing, then we are stagnating. If
• 36:12
  Speaker 4: the flower does not climb towards the sun, it will
• 36:15
  Speaker 4: cease to see the lights. If it does not see
• 36:19
  Speaker 4: the light, then it will wilt away.
• 36:37
  Speaker 14: We've all won, we've all lost. It is what it is.
• 36:39
  Speaker 14: Just keep going, keep doing a thing, keep walking hard.
• 36:49
  Speaker 16: You win or you learn.
• 36:51
  Speaker 4: It seems that Connor has adopted this tenant from his coach,
• 36:56
  Speaker 4: John Kavnah. Connor shows us that obstacles and challengers are
• 37:01
  Speaker 4: just part of the game. They are the only way
• 37:05
  Speaker 4: we can get to our destination. If we let the
• 37:08
  Speaker 4: fear of failure stop us, we fail by default, because
• 37:15
  Speaker 4: failures will teaches lessons that no amount of wins ever will.
• 37:23
  Speaker 4: It is not the critic who counts, not the man
• 37:26
  Speaker 4: who points out how the strong man stumbles, or whether
• 37:29
  Speaker 4: the do of deeds could have done them better. The
• 37:32
  Speaker 4: credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena,
• 37:36
  Speaker 4: whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood,
• 37:39
  Speaker 4: who strives valiantly, who airs, who comes short again and again,
• 37:44
  Speaker 4: because there is no effort without error and shortcoming, But
• 37:48
  Speaker 4: who does actually strive to do the deeds, who knows
• 37:51
  Speaker 4: great enthusiasm, the great devotions, who spends himself in a
• 37:56
  Speaker 4: worthy cause who at best knows in the end the
• 37:59
  Speaker 4: tryal of high achievement, and that the worst if he fails,
• 38:03
  Speaker 4: at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his
• 38:07
  Speaker 4: place shall never be with those cold and timid souls
• 38:10
  Speaker 4: who neither know victory nor defeat.
• 38:45
  Speaker 5: The gold belts. What I want the two gold belts.
• 38:47
  Speaker 5: I was a two wayward champion the previous organization. Now
• 38:50
  Speaker 5: I'm on the big stage at the UFC. I want
• 38:52
  Speaker 5: that fataweight belt and I want that lightweight belt.
• 38:54
  Speaker 6: That's my goal.
• 38:55
  Speaker 1: The money is going to come with that.
• 38:57
  Speaker 5: Don't get me wrong, there's a prize fighting. I'm after
• 39:00
  Speaker 5: the money as well, but the belt. The money comes
• 39:02
  Speaker 5: with the belt, and the belt is what I'm focused on.
• 39:05
  Speaker 14: I don't care about him.
• 39:15
  Speaker 4: If self belief was a currency, Connor McGregor would be
• 39:20
  Speaker 4: the richest athlete alive. But it isn't, so Connor used
• 39:26
  Speaker 4: that belief to become the richest athlete.
• 41:23
  Speaker 14: My name is Connor McGregor and I live in Lugan.
• 41:25
  Speaker 5: I'm an up and coming for that, and without a doubt,
• 41:28
  Speaker 5: you will see me on the UFC in near future.
• 41:30
  Speaker 14: Without a doubt, I'll be the UFC Faraway Champion.
• 41:37
  Speaker 5: Just believe, believe in yourself, believe that, believe that you're
• 41:40
  Speaker 5: better than everyone else. Just believe in yourself and be
• 41:42
  Speaker 5: cocking and be confident, be humble, train hard.
• 41:47
  Speaker 14: That's it.
• 41:47
  Speaker 1: Just believe yourself.
• 41:49
  Speaker 4: Self belief is Connor's greatest attribute. No matter the situation
• 41:55
  Speaker 4: or the circumstances, he has always held the strong belief
• 41:59
  Speaker 4: that he can achieve his dreams.
• 42:01
  Speaker 16: Just a young dreamer.
• 42:02
  Speaker 4: McGregor had the chance to meet his idol, Chuck Ladell
• 42:05
  Speaker 4: at UFC ninety three. Connor asked him for a picture.
• 42:10
  Speaker 4: Unbeknown to Chuck, this young boy would changed the face
• 42:13
  Speaker 4: of the fight world.
• 42:15
  Speaker 5: We were sitting up like way back, me and him
• 42:17
  Speaker 5: and we were like a mud chuck and he told Tom.
• 42:22
  Speaker 14: Looked at you.
• 42:22
  Speaker 5: I was, He's walking over fifty people, take picture like
• 42:25
  Speaker 5: lean over the things like that.
• 42:26
  Speaker 4: The power of belief can transport a poor lad working
• 42:31
  Speaker 4: on a building site to the main stage of the UFC.
• 42:35
  Speaker 21: About two months after I met Connor and he had
• 42:38
  Speaker 21: his fourth MMA fight. I always saw, even from then
• 42:42
  Speaker 21: the dedication that he put in and we'd be driving
• 42:44
  Speaker 21: home from his gym sessions. Can he be saying now
• 42:47
  Speaker 21: I'm gonna make it and to tap those dreams.
• 42:50
  Speaker 6: And we just always knew this, this would come over.
• 42:58
  Speaker 5: You were just a fan's saying here in this crowd
• 43:00
  Speaker 5: using and I die and saw these guys. You know,
• 43:03
  Speaker 5: I realized that it's there, it's there for the taking
• 43:06
  Speaker 5: point of time, and then made it happen.
• 43:09
  Speaker 4: Self belief isn't just about making predictions or being cocky.
• 43:15
  Speaker 4: Self belief starts with self talk. The narration that you
• 43:20
  Speaker 4: have in your head dictates your character, and your character
• 43:25
  Speaker 4: dictates your actions. Your actions dictate your progress. Don't be
• 43:32
  Speaker 4: deterred by the doubt of others. They have no grasp
• 43:37
  Speaker 4: of your potential. They see the external, clouded by their
• 43:42
  Speaker 4: own bias. Only you know the internal. Only you know
• 43:49
  Speaker 4: your truth.
• 44:01
  Speaker 5: You know, if you have a clear like if you
• 44:03
  Speaker 5: have a clear picture in your head, if something is
• 44:05
  Speaker 5: going to happen, and clear belief in that it will
• 44:08
  Speaker 5: happen no matter what, then no, nothing can stop it.
• 44:17
  Speaker 5: You know it is destined to happen, and.
• 44:18
  Speaker 1: That that's what that's what happens. You know, it's it's perfect.
• 44:26
  Speaker 14: Yeah, you know, I was on social welfare. It was
• 44:30
  Speaker 14: just I was not a normal.
• 44:31
  Speaker 5: Young man growing you know in Ireland, had no job,
• 44:36
  Speaker 5: didn't really know you.
• 44:36
  Speaker 6: I was just chasing a dream.
• 44:38
  Speaker 5: If that, if this didn't go ahead, then what had
• 44:40
  Speaker 5: I got?
• 44:41
  Speaker 13: Nothing?
• 44:49
  Speaker 5: That definitely weighs on your times and you have no money, yeah,
• 44:54
  Speaker 5: relying on other people to for support, you know what.
• 44:58
  Speaker 6: I didn't want to be doing that.
• 44:59
  Speaker 5: And that that was all as long as a fear
• 45:00
  Speaker 5: like that's in your head, you know what I mean.
• 45:03
  Speaker 14: But you just have the I suppose you just have
• 45:05
  Speaker 14: that outward that you.
• 45:07
  Speaker 6: Have to ultward that fear outward, that dealt.
• 45:15
  Speaker 5: Anytime something was going wrong in my life or anytime
• 45:18
  Speaker 5: I felt down, I'd hit the gym and that was that,
• 45:22
  Speaker 5: and the gym would make me feel very and so
• 45:24
  Speaker 5: I kept hitting the gym. I kept going to the
• 45:26
  Speaker 5: gym every day, and then it got me there and
• 45:30
  Speaker 5: I eventually it just had.
• 45:31
  Speaker 4: Of all the tenants, self belief is the most important.
• 45:35
  Speaker 4: Without self belief, all the others would be useless. It
• 45:39
  Speaker 4: is self belief that sparks action. It is self belief
• 45:42
  Speaker 4: that pushes you every day. It is self belief that
• 45:45
  Speaker 4: gives you the power to ignore doubts. It gives you
• 45:48
  Speaker 4: the ability to trust your path to flow like water.
• 45:53
  Speaker 4: It is self belief that gives you the confidence to
• 45:55
  Speaker 4: trust others. When you believe in yourself so much, the
• 45:59
  Speaker 4: hard work comes easy.
• 46:01
  Speaker 18: I'm gonna walk in there and do what I do
• 46:03
  Speaker 18: every single day. It was exactly what I said it
• 46:06
  Speaker 18: was gonna be. I said I was gonna get here,
• 46:09
  Speaker 18: people said I wasn't. I said I was gonna have
• 46:11

  Speaker 5: You're just gonna keep them when they to keep proving
• 46:18
  Speaker 5: people wrong and proven myself right.

• 46:27
  Speaker 4: his mindset from the poor boy in Cruming Island to
• 46:31
  Speaker 4: being the highest paid athlete on planet Earth, which is
• 46:37
  Speaker 4: proof we are all capable of greatness. In Connor's own words,
• 46:44
  Speaker 4: there's no talent here. This is hard work, this is obsession.
• 46:49
  Speaker 4: Talent does not exist. We are all equal as human beings.
• 46:55
  Speaker 4: You can be anyone. If you put the time in,
• 46:58
  Speaker 4: you will reach the top.
