Conor McGregor received quite a bit of attention recently from the mainstream media when he was quoted as saying that his greatness is a product of hard work and obsession rather than a natural given talent.
NBA superstar LeBron James posted a photo of McGregor on Instagram along with the quote and the caption “I’m obsessed!! Straight up #StriveForGreatness #AndThatsWhyImNeverSatisfied”.
The post from James caught the attention of ‘Notorious’, who took to Twitter to respond to ‘King James’ post.
Thank you @KingJames! Kings recognise Kings. Much respect! https://t.co/Y3o4KnjS8p
