THERE ARE FEW Irish exports who look quite as comfortable with the glitz and sparkle of US television as Conor McGregor.
Last night, the Dubliner once again proved a polished performer when he sat down in a glittering dinner jacket to chat with prime time talk show host Jimmy Kimmel.
In the short clip above, McGregor tells the host about his love of the ‘crazy, outer body experience: beating people up for lots of money.’
Kimmel also takes a minute to delve into McGregor’s past, and the 27-year-old presents a picture of himself on the football field.
