Gregor Gillespie is not the trash talking type. In fact, when it comes to whoever he meets in the Octagon, he has nothing to say – good, bad or indifferent. It’s just not his thing. But when the man he faces at UFC 244 in Madison Square Garden this Saturday – Kevin Lee – said that fighting “The Gift” would be anything but that, Gillespie couldn’t ignore it.
“I try not to think about anything my opponent’s talked about and I try to stay away from all of their interviews, but obviously everyone was tagging me in that one,” he said.
