Who is Conor McGregor?

\r\nThere’s barely any UFC fan who is not familiar with the name Conor McGregor. Conchúr Antóin Mac Gréagóir, an Irish MMA fighter, has become synonymous with the UFC, at least for an entire generation of fans. Deemed one of the highest-earning athletes in the world, the first-ever UFC two-division champion charted the Forbes No. 1 list in 2021 for his earnings both inside and outside the octagon. \r\n\r\nApart from his fighting prowess, he is today a successful entrepreneur and very much a family man. So here’s a detailed peek into UFC’s very own ‘Notorious.’\r\n

Conor McGregor’s early life 

\r\nMcGregor was born in the year 1988 to Margaret and Tony McGregor in the capital city of Ireland, Dublin. McGregor’s mother is Margaret McGregor, and his father’s name is Tony McGregor. Apart from these two, the McGregor family also consists of the fighter’s two sisters. Erin McGregor is his oldest sister, while his second older sister is named Aoife McGregor.\r\n\r\nErin McGregor has also appeared as a contestant in the noted celebrity dance reality show, ‘Dancing with the Stars’. She also works as a fitness model. On the other hand, Aoife McGregor prefers staying out of the spotlight and runs an excavation business with her husband Mark Elliott in Dublin.\r\n\r\n’Mystic Mac’ attended Irish language schools for his education. He completed his primary schooling at Gaelscoil Scoil Mologa, in Harold’s Cross. He also got admitted to  Gaelcholáiste Coláiste de hÍde in Tallaght.\r\n

\r\nMcGregor grew up in a rather violent neighborhood of Crumlin in Dublin. He also played football in his youth. But at the age of 12, McGregor started taking boxing lessons at the Crumlin Boxing Club to raise his confidence and defend himself in the fights he often got into. \r\n\r\nMcGregor shifted to Lucan in Dublin in the year 2006. He also took up an apprenticeship as a plumber. Also, it was in Lucan where McGregor had his meeting with the former UFC fighter, Tom Egan. This meeting opened up whole new avenues before McGregor. They also started training in MMA together.\r\n

Conor McGregor’s wife and children

\r\nFirst and foremost it needs to be mentioned that Conor McGregor isn’t married as of now. The Irishman has been in a relationship with his girlfriend-turned-fiance, Dee Devlin. McGregor first met Devlin in 2008 and the two have been together ever since.\r\n\r\nHowever, their relationship became public post-McGregor’s UFC rise in 2013.

The same bouts also earned him his biggest paydays. Also, McGregor’s total earnings from both bouts were exactly the same. ‘Mystic Mac’ pocketed an insane $5,011,000 for each of the two fights.\r\n

\r\nThe later part of McGregor’s career saw him pick up quite a few losses. The UFC record of arguably the most noted figure in MMA currently stands at 22-6-0. His last win was against Donald Cerrone by TKO but sadly the fighter was in recovery after two consecutive losses against Dustin Poirier, with the latter leaving him with a fractured tibia that required surgical intervention. \r\n

\r\nThe fighter has however independently announced his comeback, but we are still awaiting an official confirmation from the promotion he is contractually bound to. And as per his own revelation to The MMA Hour host Ariel Helwani, he has only two more fights left in his contract. He has further made it abundantly clear that his loyalties lie with the UFC and has denied any inclination towards free agency or otherwise. \r\n

Conor McGregor’s next fight – Who are the possible opponents for the UFC Star

\r\nMost UFC fans are aware of the fact that ‘The Notorious’ had his last octagon outing at UFC 264. After his gruesome shinbone injury in the bout against Dustin Poirier, McGregor was sidelined for an unprecedented amount of time. There were a lot of talks about 2023 being the year of his return. Several fans had also expected the same when McGregor was elected as one of the coaches for ‘The Ultimate Fighter’ this year.\r\n\r\nAs per the ritual, the two TUF coaches, McGregor and Michael Chandler were also pitted against each other for a bout that would also mark McGregor’s return to the octagon. But with ‘The Irishman’ failing his USADA testing pool deadline, the entire bout is currently in jeopardy.\r\n\r\nMcGregor and Chandler were scheduled to compete at the last PPV of 2023. Nonetheless, now that he is back at the testing pool, it seems that 2024 is really the year. Earlier, the UFC president Dana White sounded pretty keen to make this bout happen when he talked about exempting McGregor from the USADA.\r\n\r\nMcGregor’s New Year’s Eve announcement which he deemed himself as\”The Greatest Comeback in Sports History,\” has only added to the excitement of his fans. The only update we have so far is that on June 29th, 2024, ‘Mystic Mac’ will be facing Michael Chandler and at a weight neither has ventured yet- 185 Lbs. Regardless, the UFC or head honcho Dana White is yet to provide any confirmation on the ordeal, and so far, no contracts have been signed.\r\n\r\nGiven the lack of sufficient confirmation, Chandler has been outspoken about getting restless, and that he is not worried about fighting at a different weight. But, in an unpredictable sport like MMA, we will still have to wait and watch who exactly McGregor fights next.\r\n

Conor McGregor’s businesses and endorsements

\r\n’The Notorious’ is easily among the wealthiest mixed martial artists. He has huge endorsement deals and tie-ups with Monster Energy, Reebok, Beats Electronics, Burger King, Anheuser-Busch InBev, and Budweiser. Additionally, McGregor has his clothing line, August McGregor, and his whiskey brand, Proper No. Twelve.\r\n\r\nMcGregor set foot into the spirits industry in September 2018 with his Proper No. 12 Irish Whiskey. Initially, McGregor launched the product in the US and Ireland only. However, the success of the product had McGregor expressing his wishes to restock in the US and Ireland.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nvia Getty\r\n\r\nMcGregor also intended to introduce his whiskey into the markets of the UK, Australia, New Zealand, Russia, and Canada in 2019. However, in 2021 it was reported that McGregor and his partners hadsold their shares of Proper No. 12 Irish Whiskey to ‘Proximo Siprits’ for a hefty $600M.\r\n\r\nREAD MORE – Conor McGregor Arrest: What Case Is the UFC Star Involved In Now?\r\n\r\nAlongside all these, McGregor also owns a chain of pubs called the Black Forge Inn. They have several outlets in some of the noted cities of this world. However, McGregor’s Black Forge Inn pub in Dublin was subjected to an attack from criminals on 12 January 2022. The hooligans threw petrol bombs targeting the pub. Thankfully, no one was injured in the incident. McGregor also promised a cash reward to anyone identifying the criminals \r\n

Conor McGregor’s UFC career 

\r\nMcGregor made his professional debut as a lightweight in 2008. The Irishman made waves in the European MMA scene and finally found himself in Britain’s biggest promotion, The Cage Warriors. There he set up an 8 fight winning streak. In the same time frame, he became the Cage Warriors featherweight and lightweight double champion, the first European to do so.\r\n\r\nMcGregor’s journey in the UFC is nothing but a fairy tale. He finished Marcus Brimage via knockout in his debut in 2013. After defeating the famed Max Holloway in his second bout, McGregor became a household name even to the UFC audience. His further wins against Dustin Poirier and Dennis Siver made sure that his demand to fight for the UFC Featherweight Championship was answered positively.\r\n\r\nBut McGregor had to take on the Interim Featherweight Champion, Chad Mendes, before his title bout against the then-injured Featherweight kingpin,Jose Aldo. McGregor got the better of Mendes with a TKO in a neck-to-neck battle in UFC 189. He crowned himself the Interim Featherweight Champion, further justifying his Featherweight title shot.\r\n\r\n’The Notorious’ finally had his much-awaited Featherweight title bout against Jose Aldo at UFC 194. Most UFC fans would agree that McGregor delivered one of the most iconic performances in the history of the UFC that night. He knocked out the fan-favorite, Aldo, in just 13 seconds of the bout claiming his UFC Featherweight title.\r\n\r\nMcGregor had his first UFC loss against the covetedNate Diazat UFC 196 when he decided to move up to the Welterweight division. Diaz landed a few clean strikes in the second round of the bout which made McGregor shoot for a double leg. However, the ‘Stockton Gangster’ used his superb BJJ skills to transition it to a rear-naked choke and submitted McGregor at the 4:12 mark of the second round. But during their rematch at UFC 202, McGregor avenged his defeat.\r\n\r\nPost that, he also earned the lightweight belt by defeating then-champion Eddie Alvarez at UFC 205.\r\n\r\nBut McGregor couldn’t defend his Featherweight title successfully even once as he was stripped of it on 26 November 2016. The UFC authorities blamed it on his inactivity and announced that he had vacated the title himself. However, McGregor’s associates said that he was stripped.\r\n

Conor McGregor’s Fight Against Floyd Mayweather Jr.

\r\nMcGregor’s fame in the UFC had him venturing out into other avenues as well. In June 2017, a boxing bout between McGregor and the coveted undefeated boxer, Floyd Mayweather, was announced. The bout was expected to be the most cost-involved boxing matchup at that time. The earnings of Mayweather from the bout stood at a whopping $280M while ‘Mystic Mac’ also earned a lump sum amount of $130M.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nvia Getty\r\n\r\nHowever, McGregor didn’t quite have the outcome of his choice, as he was knocked out by Mayweather in the tenth round of the bout. But this bout earned him a lot of respect from the boxing community.\r\n

Conor McGregor’s Graphic Injury at UFC 264

\r\nConor McGregor in his third fight against rival Dustin Poirier at UFC 264, had an immensely toxic buildup to the fight. One reason for the toxicity between the two is an unpaid charity pledge, which McGregor promised in their second fight at UFC 257. \r\n\r\nLeading up to their fight at UFC 264, both McGregor and Poirier had one win over each other, and their fight at UFC 264 was supposed to be the tiebreaker. Ironically enough, this didn’t seem to be the case, as the fight ended prematurely, with McGregor snapping his leg near the end of the very first round. \r\n\r\nThis led to Dustin Poirier Being termed the winner of the fight via Doctor’s Stoppage. The injury has kept him out of action for over two years. However, the Irishman is finally aiming for a return in 2024. Despite the injury, McGregor has kept himself busy focusing on his outside of fighting. \r\n
