CONOR McGREGOR AIMS to make UFC history tomorrow night by becoming the first fighter ever to hold two belts at the same time.

The featherweight champion will take on defending lightweight title-holder Eddie Alvarez in the main event at UFC 205 at Madison Square Garden in New York.

In the fourth episode of the UFC’s popular ‘Embedded’ series for this weekend’s event — which you can view above — McGregor gets a chance to sample what it will be like should he win a second belt as the Dubliner goes through some final media duties for the UFC.

Below, watch the fifth episode which features behind-the-scenes footage from yesterday’s bizarre press conference.
