Conor McGregor is on the go in his training sessions in order to fight with Michael Chandler. However, his new training partner shocked the fans. Having won only one fight since his loss to Khabib Nurmagomedov five years ago, he was kept out of the Octagon for two years after suffering a broken leg in his last fight against Dustin Poirier. Fans have also grown increasingly critical of the Irishman.

Recently, “The Irishman” shared a video on his Twitter account (Now X), in which he is seen sparring with a new partner, distinct from his usual ones. This development has left enthusiasts surprised.

Conor McGregor and his intense sparring session at SBG Ireland: Embracing Irish lineage

The 35-year-old took to Twitter (X) to showcase his training session. He uploaded a video in which he can be seen sparring with none other than another Irishman. The 57-second video, uploaded by McGregor, showcased him engaged in a sparring session with Ian Machado Garry.

Ahead of McGregor’s highly anticipated return to the octagon in December, he showed his eagerness by taking part in a boxing sparring session in Dublin, Ireland. During the session, he teamed up with up-and-coming UFC welterweight fighter Ian Garry. Hailing from Dublin’s Crumlin neighborhood, McGregor extended an invitation to Garry to join him for this sparring session at the renowned SBG Ireland and Garry accepted that invitation.

In the 57-second clip, ‘Machado’ dominates with a series of leg kicks, even landing a powerful one onto the body. McGregor, on the other hand, seeks an opportunity to close the gap, ultimately displaying his skill with a spinning wheel kick. McGregor captioned it as ‘lineage’, taking pride in their Irish background.

Garry’s commitment to bring UFC back to Ireland

Even though McGregor is training hard and doing his best, his return is shrouded in mystery, as there is yet to be any official confirmation regarding his fight against Michael Chandler. The reason specifically being the USADA pool tests. On the flip side, Ian Garry is profoundly motivated to revive the MMA scene in Dublin. The UFC hasn’t graced Ireland’s shores since Conor McGregor’s memorable knockout of Diego Brandao back in 2014. The Irishman secured himself a dominating spot in his hometown after triumphing over Max Holloway in Boston, a city renowned for its Irish-American community.

In an uncannily similar narrative, Ian Garry recently claimed a commanding victory over the seasoned welterweight contender, Neil Magny, at UFC 292 in the TD Garden, Boston, just last month. ‘The Future’ now sets his sights on a main event in front of a passionate Irish audience, following in the footsteps of his predecessor. The ‘future’ stated while talking to Talk Sports, “That has always been the plan, to get a fight in Ireland and bring the UFC back to Dublin. I’m excited for it to come to fruition, and I believe that this is the cherry on the cake. The Irish influence in Boston just shows the world how incredibly powerful Irish MMA is and I am.”
