Conor McGregor

The athlete was born in Dublin. He became the first ever Irishman in the UFC. As a teenager, Conor got into a fight over a girl he liked. She was dating another boy, and Conor gathered his friends to beat up his rival. As a result, McGregor, though he lost, decided to take up martial arts. He became interested in jiu-jitsu, kickboxing as early as at the age of 12. Conor didn't get into the professional league right away. For a while he made a living fixing plumbing. For a long time McGregor carried around an old hat that belonged to his grandfather. It was a special talisman for him. But one day the bag with the hat was stolen from the car. Conor is known for knocking out one of his opponents in four seconds. McGregor likes to intimidate his opponents before the fight. This is his special tactic. Sometimes he even starts shouting to throw a man off balance. Conor could play a role in one of the Bond films, but after much thought, he declined to star in the project.
