Conor McGregor has responded to rumours that he’ll be appearing on Game of Thrones, admitting that he was never officially offered a role.
Despite whispers going around that the MMA star would feature in the upcoming series, Conor admitted that while someone did say it to him in passing after a fight, there were no meetings held afterwards.
Speaking to Good Times Network, Conor said,”That [Game of Thrones rumour] was everywhere and I’ve never even heard about it.
“I heard about it once after [a fight]… They were in front of me and they were saying, ‘These [people] want you to be in Game of Thrones‘. I’m banged up, my shin’s in a heap, I’ve been kicking his (opponent) knee straight for 25 minutes, my leg’s in bits, and he’s trying to offer me a Game of Thrones role!
“I’m saying, ‘Listen, come at me with s*** I want to hear; I’m not trying to be in show business, I’m trying to be in the fight business… Come at me with a real number to fight again.
“That was the only time I ever heard [about] Game of Thrones, and it went everywhere, like, months later! I don’t know where that came from. But I’ve never been in contact with nobody from Game of Thrones.”
Meanwhile, the dad-to-be has opened up about fatherhood and his future career in MMA, revealing that the only person who will break his records, are is son.
