I’d like a nice tiger, a good-colored tiger. Like Mike Tyson. Mike Tyson had a white one, I would like an orange-and-black one,” said McGregor. While McGregor was very motivated about housing a big cat, it has its own problems.

Legendary boxer Mike Tyson had to spend thousands of dollars for feeding and housing his tiger. He also had to burn a lot of money to train and take care of the wild animal. The additional money required for covering the damage done to other people by a tiger should also not be forgotten. So, Although, McGregor wanted an exotic animal, it is better that he did not go through with it.
