These were his first statements.
If we use 21 inch rackets he might make it to the third set. If we use 19 inch I don't expect him to make it past the first set. I predict des tings.
I am tennis.
How can I not think I will win this match. He is 36 years old. I've seen him play, it is like he is stuck in the mud. He is in the worst shape I've ever seen.
I'm not going to train tennis for this match. We are going to keep doing what we do and will adapt it to the world of tennis. This is Bruce Lee shit. Be like water, when the water goes into a cup, it becomes the cup. He has not seen anyone swing the racket like I do.
When my left serve lands, he will fall, like they always do.
Dana White spoke right after:
I stopped doubting this kid long time ago. Nadammy and Dorkovich can say what they want.
If Federer went into Connor's world, this thing wouldn't go past 10 seconds. I've seen him train with Agassi. That was the most lop-sided tennis match I've ever seen. Just go check my twitter, I have a ten second video where Conor's serve lands.
Brandan Schaub chimed in to give his expert opinion
I know Conor is 0-0 in tennis, but we've all seen how fast his hands are. You just don't see them coming. I'm going to bet 500,000 dollars Conor wins this one. I'm telling you man, he will beat Federer. And what does that tell you? He is the best athlete in the world...EVER.
