Conor McGregor has been a martial artist ever since he was a young boy. ‘The Notorious’ initially started by learning to box, as he wanted to make sure that he was not getting picked on by his peers. His passion for boxing has translated over to a passion for the fight game.
This is something Conor aims to pass on to his son Conor McGregor Jr as well.
McGregor recently posted a video of him playfully sparring with his son. The Irish superstar often shares videos and photos of him along with his son in the gym as he aims to immerse him in the world of martial arts. Another video recently posted by ‘The Notorious’ showed his son practicing his boxing skills on a standing punching bag.

If Khabib were to walk away, the fight between McGregor and Poirier would most definitely be for the undisputed lightweight title. However, if he decides to stick around for one more fight, there is reason to believe that the winner of the main event at UFC 257 would be his next opponent.
What do you think Khabib’s decision is? Will he fight again or is he done? Let us know in the comments below!
