Conor McGregor is one of the biggest names in combat sports. Through his performances in the octagon, The Notorious has changed the entire landscape of mixed martial arts. While McGregor has earned many accolades in the cage, his fame has arguably exceeded the sport. One could even argue that mixed martial arts have become synonymous with Irishman.

However, the question that comes forward is, How did McGregor manage all of this? Since his UFC debut in 2013, Conor McGregor proved to the world that he was a man to watch out for. Through his trash talking and charisma, the fighter built a considerable fanbase. A few years into the sport, McGregor tasted further success when becoming the UFC’s first two-division champion. His success in the octagon earned McGregor fame and wealth.
