Conor McGregor and Urijah Faber were at the Fox Sports studios to promote the upcoming season of the Ultimate Fighter. While the two coaches clearly have a certain respect for each other, both fighters agree to have this ‘weird’ relationship and things did get a bit testy while arguing certain topics.

McGregor also stated that he will move to lightweight after beating Jose Aldo, unless Frankie Edgar comes out with a breakthrough performance versus Mendes.

“If Frankie was to put on a phenomenal performance and stop Chad, or maybe something like that, then I can say, alright, let’s answer the Frankie question, let’s shut him down real quick,” McGregor said. “But in my mind, I’m thinking, I’m going to unify the belts, I’m going to destroy the division, and then I’m going to take the lightweight division as well. That’s where I’m headed right now.”
