"It is particularly hard to forget him," he told German outlet GNP1.de at a UFC media event in Berlin yesterday. "The fight is over and done for me, it's been a few months since, I can live with it. But this guy is just everywhere, he can't be overlooked. And I guess we will hear even more from him in the future."

"I would definitely do a rematch, because the first fight didn't go too well for me. I don't want to make excuses, but during the first round he hit me under my left eye with one of his knuckles or something, and a little muscle kind of got stuck. The result was, I had double-vision, which means that I was basically dealing with two McGregors from that point on, what a horror," Siver laughed.

"I got hit above the same eye then, and the eye was starting to swell shut. So from fighting with double-vision I went to fighting with one eye," says Siver. "It went all downhill from there. Fighting one-eyed against such a strong and quick opponent just doesn't make any sense. I kind of gave up in that second round. Would it have been a three-round fight, I might have continued and taken a beating for the last round, too. But it was a five rounder, and I wanted to save my health for other fights in the future."

"If my eye hadn't swollen shut, it could have been a completely different fight
