HE MAY NOT be involved in next weekend’s UFC Fight Night at Dublin’s 3 Arena, but featherweight interim champion Conor McGregor will be in town for fight week.

The Notorious, who meets Jose Aldo in a much-anticipated title bout in Las Vegas on 12 December, is attending a two-night Q&A event at The Wright Venue in Swords next Monday and Tuesday.

The Takeover will also feature McGregor’s coach John Kavanagh as well as SBG team-mates Gunnar Nelson, Cathal Pendred and Artem Lobev.

It hasn’t been confirmed whether McGregor is planning to appear at UFC Dublin on 24 October, but we wouldn’t bet against him showing up.

    There has to be a glass ceiling in terms of how much training these amateur players with day jobs can do. Of course for the outside paid manager the more training sessions the better.

    Ands it’s going to become more and more common when you hear some of the training county teams are doing. And of course that has the effect of minor players starting weights earlier to ‘bulk’ up.
