McGregor’s absence from the USADA testing group, however, delayed the fight.

Mystic Mac said, “I’m going to kick this guy in the head. It’s tailor-made to be kicked everywhere.

“And that’s what I intend, I intend to wrap this steel bar around my opponent.

“And you’ll see the image of the hanging leg, and then you’ll see the image of the hanging head.”
