There have been talks of McGregor hanging his gloves up for good, for no one fights forever. So as a back-up plan McGregor successfully set up some lucrative business ventures to ensure a steady flow of income after his retirement.

McGregor claims he is fortunate enough to own businesses like Proper No. 12 and August McGregor. The former being a brand of Irish whiskey and the latter being a luxury clothing brand.

McGregor is seemingly at the top of his game coming off a freak knockout against Donald Cerrone. His hunt for someone to throw down with is afoot and many names have come up.

You will need to stay tuned, but trust me—the fans will enjoy. Giving them what they want and entertaining them is important to me.”- Conor McGregor

There has been a lot of chatter about McGregor taking on the winner of the title fight between Khabib and Tony Ferguson. However, one name that stands out is that of Justin Gaethje. The American is quite optimistic about bagging a fight against the Notorious One.
