Fact: Conor McGregor has eclipsed Brock Lesnar's UFC stardom, reveals private PPV records

Reigning Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) featherweight champion Conor McGregor has no one to fight inside the Octagon (his choice), so he's decided to keep busy by instead fighting mixed martial arts (MMA) fans on Twitter.

Aside from the usual talking points about his imaginary rematch against Nate Diaz, "Notorious" also declared himself the new king of pay-per-view (PPV) buys after beating -- check that, smashing -- the previous record held by WWE superstar Brock Lesnar.

That's a fact, Jack.

It is not safe to say. It is fact to say.
