The rise and fall of McGregor
Following an epic duology with Nate Diaz, the "Notorious" dispatched Eddie Alvarez in 2016 to become the first fighter to hold two titles simultaneously in UFC history (featherweight and lightweight).
With his stock at an all-time high, McGregor took part in the most lucrative crossover fight of all-time against Floyd Mayweather in 2017. Lacing the gloves up, McGregor entered the boxing world and hardly disgraced himself as he went 10 rounds against somebody regarded as the greatest of his generation.
After a two-year hiatus from the UFC and a couple of court cases, McGregor marked his return by taking on arch-rival Khabib Nurmagomedov in 2018. The fight had gathered momentum following McGregor's bus attack after UFC 223.
The 32-year-old picked up a hand truck trolley and threw it at the moving bus, shattering the window and injuring two people onboard in Ray Borg and Michael Chiesa. Khabib would dominate their lightweight encounter, submitting McGregor in the fourth round with a neck crank to inflict the fourth defeat of the Irishman's career.
Can McGregor bounce back?
A former plumber in Dublin, McGregor is now the richest athlete in the world, according to Forbes. Like the late, great Marvelous Marvin Hagler once said - it's tough to get out of bed to do roadwork at 5am when you've been sleeping in silk pajamas"
