Continuing the rich tradition of strong men purchasing exotic animals that will eventually lead them to financial ruin, Conor McGregor has entered the market for a pet tiger.
The new UFC featherweight interim champion spoke about his wish to own a tiger during an interview with CNN's Rachel Nichols (h/t Joe.co.uk).
Interspersed with his admiration for non-weightlifting gorillas, McGregor revealed his intentions to purchase a large cat.
"I think a tiger. I'd like a nice tiger, a good-colored tiger," McGregor said.
"Like Mike Tyson?" Nichols asked.
"Like Mike Tyson. Mike Tyson had a white one," McGregor said.
