The pure talent and determination that Conor Mcgregor owns is spectacular. The man from Dublin has brought the sport of mixed martial arts from unknown entity to worldwide phenomenon.

| Conor has made the UFC a household name |
Already champion of the featherweight division, Conor added the lightweight title to his other shoulder. Nobody in the history of the UFC has been champion of two weight divisions at the same time.
The title fight at UFC 205 was already a historic event, being the first time professional MMA took place in New York. The fight between Mcgregor and Eddie Alvarez was advertised as the battle of champions.
The fight itself did not do this description any favours. Conor dominated the fight, dropping Alvarez 3 times in the first round. The American failed to bring anything extra in round two, before Conor landed a devastating combination of punches to end the fight.
It was the moment that Mcgregor had been waiting for since his arrival to the UFC.
This accolade now puts him among the greatest competitors the sport has ever seen.

| Now a double champion |
With news of his girlfriend expecting a baby, will Conor have time to defend two belts?
Knowing Mcgregor however, he'll probably want to add a third.
