UFC featherweight Conor McGregor talked to the media on Thursday about the whole Jose Aldo injury scare<\/a>\u00a0and had plenty to say.<\/p>\n

McGregor talked about targeting the rib of Aldo, fighting Mendes and possibly fighting at lightweight.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m going to go for the chin; I want to knock him out. He doesn\u2019t need to worry about his ribs, and I\u2019m not going to go out and purposely target an area. If he shows up and fights, which he should do, we\u2019ll fight as scheduled.<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m not going to start diving at things. I\u2019m just going to fight my fight. It\u2019s the chin I am hunting.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cAs long as I am fit and I am healthy, I feel it\u2019s only right that I show up and fight, so 155 was an option because the Aldo fight was looking to be rescheduled until September. But now, now I don\u2019t know. I don\u2019t give a f-ck really. I don\u2019t care. I\u2019ll be there July 10 at 145 pounds, and on July 11, I will have a gold belt wrapped around my waist. So everything else means nothing to me.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

The UFC released a statement <\/a>saying that Aldo plans on fighting, but they have Chad Mendes waiting and training in case he has to step in. Who do you think will eventually step in against Notorious at UFC 189?<\/p>\n
