Conor McGregor had a funny reaction to dropping Eddie Alvarez to win the UFC lightweight championship on Saturday night.
Immediately after his second-round victory over Alvarez, McGregor, who entered the fight as the UFC featherweight champion, demanded his second belt because he had just knocked off the lightweight champ.
The colorful Irish fighter demanded the second belt with a couple of choice F-bombs and made a second reference to the belt a minute later. UFC boss Dana White finally brought the second belt out to McGregor to satisfy the fighter. McGregor then let out a classic line about not apologizing to anyone.

McGregor captured the UFC featherweight championship in 2015. He then jumped up two weight classes to fight Nate Diaz and went 1-1 in those fights.
Alvarez was the previous lightweight champion, but he was completely outclassed by McGregor, who was faster, better and toyed with him during the match. McGregor is now the first fighter in UFC history to hold two belts at the same time.
