Back in August 2023, he made a post celebrating Croia’s first day at "big school." Dressed casually in a grey tracksuit, the Irishman knelt beside his daughter, planting a kiss on her cheek as she sat at her desk in her school uniform. In his caption, McGregor wrote:

"The proudest Daddy in the whole world, my daughter Croia in big school today! I love you, my baby girl. Princess of the World."

Michael Bisping reveals why he respects Conor McGregor despite heated exchanges in the past

Michael Bisping recently opened up about his respect for Conor McGregor, despite their past confrontations.

Speaking on the Overdogs podcast, Bisping acknowledged McGregor's significant contributions, crediting him for elevating MMA to new heights. Despite McGregor’s massive earnings, Bisping respects the fact that he still has the desire to compete.

However, the former UFC middleweight champion also shared that their rivalry was intense, to the point where McGregor sent him death threats during heated exchanges. Reflecting on their interactions, Bisping revealed he never took the threats seriously, brushing them off with humor.

Speaking about his respect for McGregor, Bisping said:

“Conor [McGregor] had his day, he was amazing, he took over the sport, he elevated the sport, did incredible things. He made so much money that he doesn’t need to fight again, seems like he still wants to fight. And for that, I do respect him."

He added:

"I have the voice notes sent my way and f**king death threats and sh*t like that. But I just take it all with a pinch of salt and laugh my a** off because we’ve met him in person and I’m much bigger so I don’t lose any sleep at night. But he seems he still wants to fight for somebody who has the resources and the money that and he still wants to fight, I respect that.”
