One of the most highly anticipated MMA events in recent memory is coming this Saturday, with “The Notorious” Conor McGregor finally stepping back into the octagon after more than a year’s absence to face off against veteran Donald “Cowboy” Cerrone. UFC 246 is coming to the T-Mobile Arena in Paradise, Nevada, with the main card being an exclusive pay-per-view event to be broadcast on ESPN+. If you’ve already signed up for this streaming service, or if you’re thinking of jumping on board, then now’s the perfect time to do so and to watch some of McGregor’s best fights before UFC 246.
Conor McGregor is a fighter who needs no introduction to MMA fans, and even people who aren’t into UFC likely know who he is. The 31-year-old Irish mixed martial artist and boxer has had a successful and very colorful career, but not one without its fair share of controversy, with McGregor having been both stripped of titles as well as suspended from fighting due to various incidents and infractions. Despite this (or perhaps in part because of it), the former featherweight and lightweight champion remains a beloved rockstar within the UFC and the promotions biggest pay-per-view draw, with five of the six highest-grossing UFC events featuring McGregor on the main card.
We’re all looking forward to an exciting main card at UFC 246 this Saturday, and until then, there’s plenty of time to go back and revisit some of the biggest highlights — comprising both the wins and the most notable defeats — of McGregor’s MMA career.
