In keeping with the Halloween theme, you have every reason to be scared of a guy with the nickname of ‘The Count’……especially when he’s one of the best mma fighters in the world. Whilst Conor McGregor may well be the name on everyone’s lips the UK does boast a UFC Champion too, and his backstory is fascinating.

It’s impossible to escape this, so don’t even try. Not only is it the biggest boxing match of all time, but one of the biggest sporting events in history. Floyd Mayweather versus Conor McGregor in The Money Fight.

Fueled by genuine distain for each other, one of the biggest grudges, and fierce rivalries finally comes to a head, and is settled ‘Once And For All’ at UFC 214, as Jon Jones looks to win back the title he never lost against current champion Daniel Cormier on a night that features 3 title fights.

This weekend sees UFC 196 at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas, and with it the return to the Octagon of the sometimes outspoken, but always entertaining Conor McGregor. Expect a sea of orange, white and green, and sparks to fly as he takes on the even more controversial Nate Diaz.

 

Join us as VM Life looks forward to the most talked about, and what is shaping up to be the greatest MMA fight of all time, as Ireland's own Conor McGregor takes on Brazilian Jose Aldo for the UFC Featherweight Championship.
