UFC welterweight title holder, British Leon Edwards spoke about the main star of mixed martial arts, the former champion of the promotion in two divisions Conor McGregor.

“I think Conor is good for our sport. He made MMA more accessible to the general public. You may or may not like such guys, but no one is indifferent to him. What he achieved in sports cannot be taken away from him.

He became the first dual UFC champion, so even though he talks this crap, he's a really good fighter. “He definitely helped the sport and gave it more than he got in return, pushing MMA into the mainstream,” Sportskeeda quotes Edwards as saying.
