Later McGregor says, “I feel the $400 million I have generated for the company in my last three events, all inside 8 months, is enough to get me this slight leeway.

“I am still ready to go for UFC 200. 

“I will offer, like I already did, to fly to New York for the big press conference that was scheduled, and then I will go back into training. With no distractions. If this is not enough or they feel I have not deserved to sit this promotion run out this one time, well then I don’t know what to say.”
