McGregor displays some impressive football skills in the new Embedded

Meanwhile, Chad is busy feeding the chickens in Sacramento.

HE’S ALREADY A superstar in the world of mixed martial arts, but perhaps football’s loss was MMA’s gain.

Conor McGregor shows off his silky skills during a game of keepy-uppy in episode six of UFC 189 Embedded, with just three days to go until the meeting of McGregor and Chad Mendes in Las Vegas.

The latest episode features McGregor relaxing in the jacuzzi and playing football at the Mac Mansion in las Vegas, before heading out for a run in the 40-degree heat while wearing a cotton tracksuit. The joys of cutting weight.

Meanwhile, in Sacramento, we learn that Mendes has a slight obsession with sourcing his own organic food — meat, mostly. Mendes shows off his freezer full of a variety of types of meat — much of which he hunted himself — as well as some chickens in his backyard.

Even UFC 189 co-headliners Rory MacDonald and Robbie Lawler — believe it or not — make an appearance in this episode.
