Some fight fans choose to support their favorite fighters by buying their pay-per-views or their walk-out shirts. Others choose to show their support by getting their favorite fighters permanently tattooed onto their skin. That’s just what one Conor McGregor fan has done, and it’s actually some pretty impressive artwork. See this impressive Conor McGregor tattoo, which was done by artist Steve Butcher back in June, in the Instagram video below.

Floyd Mayweather vs. Khabib Nurmagomedov could still happen. If the fight between the undefeated boxer and undefeated mixed martial artist does happen, well, the rules would seem to be quite simple. Mayweather believes the fight has to be inside the boxing ring, just like his fight with Conor McGregor in August of 2017.

When fighters get the call to say they are competing on The Ultimate Fighter (TUF) it is a dream come true. The news means they are just three victories away from earning a UFC contract, while even the fighters that don’t win sometimes end up in the UFC. However, when fighters compete on The Ultimate Fighter, they are locked away in a house together with the other competitors. It can cause some awkward moments and has even resulted in scraps breaking out inside the house. TUF 28 fighters, Leah Letson and Maurice Greene now know all to well what the infamous TUF house is like.

Conor McGregor is far and away the biggest star in mixed martial arts history. He’s earned bigger paydays than any of his peers, and headlined many of the biggest pay-per-views the UFC has promoted. Not everybody, however, is a fan of the Irishman. While his skill and showmanship are undeniable, his bravado and trash talk rub many members of the MMA community the wrong way.
