McGregor: Why the Eagles jersey?

The main reason for McGregor wearing the Super Eagles jersey is not clear. Still, it can be deduced that either the Irishman is a fan of the Nigerian team, or he is looking for a battle against Nigerian UFC fighter, Kamaru Usman.

McGregor's Career in MMA

On March 9, 2008, McGregor had his first professional MMA bout, as a lightweight, defeating Gary Morris with a second-round TKO.

After McGregor won his second fight against Mo Taylor, he made his featherweight debut in a loss via kneebar against submission specialist, Artemij Sitenkov.

The UFC fighter, who owns his own whisky brand, will soon be able to add 'movie star' to his growing list of achievements.

McGregor will be part of an upcoming movie called Road House.
