He continued, "The way I see it, a lion is most dangerous when it’s hungry and when it’s horny. "If a lion has just eaten an antelope and shagged another lioness - you can walk up to it and pat it on the head. "But if it’s hungry and hasn’t eaten for a while, and it’s horny, go anywhere near it and it’s gonna bang you and eat you."Not all fighters subscribe to this theory, however. UFC lightweight champion Conor McGregor, arguably the biggest superstar in all of combat sports right now, is of a different opinion entirely.
Prior to his meeting with Chad Mendes at UFC 189, McGregor revealed that he enjoys as much sex as possible prior to fight night. He told Conan O'Brien:
"I feel superstitions are another form of fear. "If you need something to happen a certain way or you need to wear a pair of lucky jocks or whatever, then when those lucky jocks aren't there you'll start to freak out. It's another form of fear. "That [sexual abstinence] is most certainly a superstition that I do not abide by. "I definitely have as much sex as possible!"To be fair to 'The Notorious', it's done him no harm whatsoever.
