How Conor McGregor Went From Plumber To The Most Exciting UFC Fighter?

You probably heard about The notorious, the guy with 2 belts, the Irish king Conor Mcgregor.

This days there’s no doubt that MMA is the ultimate sport, we want dream about participating there ( but let’s keep dreaming, it’s much safer this way ).

There are lots of good fighters out there, but there’s something about Conor that made him the king. Maybe it’s his style, maybe the look, maybe his story? But it goes without question Conor McGregor is that dude that we all look up to.

Conor McGregor has come a long way from Crumlin and Lucan in Ireland. He always believed he will be the best fighter of all time and to leave a legacy in the fight game for Ireland. Today he’s the first fighter to hold two UFC belts at the same time when he takes on Eddie Alvarez for the lightweight title on Saturday

Started boxing at age 15 and soon to discover kickboxing and jiu-jitsu. Working as a plumber and try to combine it with fighting wasn’t the right track for him so made a bet, crazy bet but definitely a good one as it founds out to be, he went ALL IN with his fighting. He made his way through the local MMA scene in Dublin, making his professional debut on March 8, 2008 . His win streak grew, word began to spread and after racking up eight wins in two years, UFC President Dana White finally came calling, signing McGregor for UFC.
