Garry said, “When we were doing the MMA sparring, you seen it in the video that he posted where he brought out like the OG Conor, like the split sand squat. The hand came out and the spin started coming I was like get the f*ck out of here.”
He is clearly talking about the way McGregor presents himself once inside the Octagon. He clearly has that star aura, whether he’s inside an arena or not. But will that aura transfer over to his fan, Garry? ‘The Future’ currently stands with a 13-0 record, but will it go on?

Both McGregor and Garry are great at their own style of striking. However, they’re markedly different in the way that they utilize it all. Garry’s being from Ireland obviously makes him very visible in McGregor’s eyes. The only question that remains is: will he be able to beat his next opponent?
