LAS VEGAS – If you haven’t learned by now, Conor McGregor likes to make an entrance. And today was no exception.
McGregor rolled into today’s open workout session and headed immediately for the hundreds of fans in attendance to watch him. And those fans responded in kind with soccer chants and big applause.
McGregor (17-2 MMA, 5-0 UFC) on Saturday meets Chad Mendes (17-2 MMA, 8-2 UFC) in UFC 189’s main event, which takes place at MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas. The main card airs on pay-per-view following prelims on FOX Sports 1 and UFC Fight Pass.
McGregor and Mendes are fighting for the interim featherweight title after champion Jose Aldo pulled out of the headliner with McGregor just this past week.
Check out the raw video of McGregor’s entrance to the open workouts in the video above.
