Drake and Conor McGregor’s friendship
The ‘Certified Lover Boy’ rapper was spotted cheering on Conor McGregor during his UFC 229 fight against Khabib Nurmagomedov, which the Irish fighter lost. He also accompanied him in his weigh-ins against Khabib. Given how close they are, it is no surprise McGregor gave a huge shout-out to the album.
The friends also left some amusing comments on the post. Drake gave the fighter a go-ahead for music “You got all the bars, drop a album.” Drake’s album now goes head-to-head with Kanye West’s Donda for the ‘Album of the Summer’ honors.
Aside from their great friendship, the pair share another thing: a £450,000 watch. They may both own a pair of the same watch, Astronomia Casino, made by Jacob and Co.
When will Conor McGregor fight again?
McGregor broke his leg when he fought American fighter Dustin Poirier in July at UFC 264. Ever since then Conor has been sharing many posts on social media, showcasing his rehabilitation and recovery. The leg break could take nine to twelve months to heal, according to the doctors’ predictions. However, he hopes to return to the octagon sooner than that.
