RadioTimes.com brings you all the important info about Conor McGregor ahead of UFC 257.
Who is Conor McGregor?
McGregor is an Irish MMA fighter currently signed to UFC despite three retirements littering his recent past.
He is a former UFC Lightweight and Featherweight Champion but due to recent inactivity, McGregor has slid down to 14th in the pound-for-pound rankings and fourth in the Lightweight standings.
He defeated Poirier in 2014 before toppling Jose Aldo as his star continued to rise. McGregor's surge was halted by Nate Diaz, but he won the rematch and a following bout against Eddie Alvarez.
However, McGregor's reputation was taken down a peg by Khabib Nurmagomedov in 2018 with a defeat in one of the biggest UFC showdowns of all time. McGregor has only fought once since, a first-round win over Donald Cerrone, and is still rebuilding his reputation as one of the world's finest.
