Javier Mendez has always kept it a buck about his opinion in any interview he does. The coach to five UFC champions believes UFC superstar Conor McGregor should stop being disrespectful and focus on him being just a fighter. Recently McGregor was bitter about Islam Makhachev becoming the new lightweight champion at UFC 280.

The Irishman made some vile comments about Nurmagomedov’s father while reacting to Makhachev’s tweet. Coach Mendez, who spoke to Submission Radio after his pupil’s championship gave his brutal opinion on the fighter. “I don’t care for him,” said Javier Mendez in his interview.

“I wish he can just be a fighter. Somebody that everybody can respect and at least love, you know? Not get people to hate, and then think that’s cool,” said the AKA head coach. McGregor is still not back to his fighting form but has put out a lot of tweets where he claims he is ready to take on anyone in the world.
