Conor Anthony McGregor (born 14 July 1988) is an Irish mixed martial artist who currently competes in the featherweight division of the Ultimate Fighting Championship. He is the current UFC Interim Featherweight Champion. McGregor is the former Cage Warriors featherweight and lightweight champion. As of 25 August 2015, he is the #1 ranked featherweight and #11 ranked pound-for-pound fighter in official UFC rankings.
On 9 March 2008, aged 19, McGregor made his professional MMA debut at Cage of Truth 2, defeating Gary Morris by second round TKO. Beginning in 2011, McGregor started an undefeated streak of 14 wins, consisting of one judges' decision, one submission and twelve knockouts/technical knockouts (nine occurring in the first round). During this period McGregor produced one of the fastest recorded knockouts in MMA ending a fight in 4 seconds at Immortal Fighting Championship in Letterkenny, Ireland. In 2012, McGregor won both the CWFC Featherweight and Lightweight titles, making him the first Irish professional MMA fighter to hold titles in three divisions at the same time. This streak resulted in considerable attention on MMA message boards and McGregor rose in the European rankings. This then led to the UFC taking an interest.
In February 2013, the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) announced that they had signed McGregor to a multi-fight contract. In joining, McGregor became only the second ever fighter from the Republic of Ireland to compete for the company, following fellow SBG fighter Tom Egan. On 6 April 2013, McGregor made his UFC debut against Marcus Brimage on the preliminary card of UFC on Fuel TV: Mousasi vs. Latifi. He was successful in his first bout, winning via TKO just over a minute into the first round. The win also earned McGregor his first Knockout of the Night award.
McGregor was expected to face Andy Ogle on 17 August 2013 at UFC Fight Night 26 However, Ogle pulled out of the bout citing an injury and was replaced by Max Holloway. McGregor won the fight by unanimous decision. Following the bout with Holloway, an MRI scan revealed that McGregor had torn his ACL during the bout and would require surgery, keeping him out of action for up to ten months.
In March 2014, the events surrounding McGregor's fight with Holloway were the main focus of a documentary by Motive Television and SevereMMA.com for Raidió Teilifís Éireann.
"We're not just here to take part — we're here to take over."

McGregor faced Dustin Poirier on 27 September 2014 at UFC 178. After a build-up filled with argument and hostility between the two, McGregor won the fight via first round TKO, making him the first man to finish Poirier via KO/TKO in a fight. The win earned McGregor his second straight Performance of the Night bonus award.
McGregor faced Dennis Siver on 18 January 2015 at UFC Fight Night 59. McGregor dominated his opponent, winning the one sided fight via TKO in the second round.
