Conor McGregor

Floyd Mayweather says a rematch with Conor McGregor could actually happen! 🥊 Almost 10 years after their massive boxing match in 2017, Mayweather has hinted that he could share the ring with the former UFC champion once again. 🗣️ “Actually, I think me and Conor McGregor may lock up again. Yeah, absolutely.” Via: (@pbd.podcast)

Conor McGregor is the Crumlin-born striker whose first professional knockout came at just 19 in Dublin. On March 9, 2008, at Cage of Truth 2, the former plumbing apprentice met Gary Morris in his professional mixed martial arts debut at lightweight and ended it in round two, unloading devastating hooks on the feet until the referee waved it off. Boxing since age 12 at Crumlin Boxing Club, McGregor brought explosive hand speed that produced 11 knockouts before he reached the UFC. That ruthless left hand later made him the UFC’s first simultaneous two-division champion, and in 2026, after a knee injury cut short his UFC 329 return, his phenomenal rise still traces back to this fight. #ufc #mma #conormcgregor #vintage #knockout

Bruce Buffer revealed that only three fighters in UFC history have earned his legendary "The One, The Only" introduction: Conor McGregor, Jon Jones, and Alex Pereira. 🗣️ Buffer explained that the line is reserved for cultural mega-draws and generational icons: McGregor for being the biggest pay-per-view draw ever, Jones for cementing his status as the sport's GOAT, Pereira for his rapid two-division championship triumphs. While Jon Jones is essentially retired, McGregor remains inactive, and Pereira is taking heavy matchups at 205 and heavyweight, Makhachev is actively cleaning out divisions. His dominance is reflected on Kalshi, where traders currently give Makhachev a massive 90% probability of remaining the welterweight champion by the end of the year. 🎥: (@helenyeesports)

Conor McGregor is the former two-division UFC champion now sharing his grappling knowledge with students in Italy. Best known for his explosive left hand, McGregor built his mixed martial arts foundation at SBG Ireland under John Kavanagh, blending precision striking with Brazilian jiu-jitsu and wrestling. His takedown defense and distance control helped make him the first fighter to hold UFC featherweight and lightweight titles at once. On the mats, he breaks down takedown technique, from level changes and penetration steps to finishing with relentless drive through the hips. In 2026, after a devastating knee injury cut short his UFC 329 return against Max Holloway, he continues passing his phenomenal fight IQ to the next generation of combat sports athletes. #ufc #mma #conormcgregor #islammakhachev #training

Two-time UFC middleweight champion Sean Strickland says he is fed up with his compensation unless things change, pointing to Conor McGregor's reported $30 million payday and Conor Benn's reported $15 million Zuffa Boxing deal. Strickland said he is contemplating moving to 205 pounds, knocking out his contract and fighting Jake Paul. He won his second title in May at UFC 328, beating Khamzat Chimaev by split decision, and has yet to book a title defense, with injuries and pay issues cited in his absence. It is not known how many bouts remain on his contract.
