Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) lightweight champion Conor “Notorious” McGregor has been taking some time off from the mixed martial arts promotion. Most notably, the champion has been awaiting the birth of his child.
Conor Jack McGregor was born Friday night in the Coombe Maternity Hospital. The baby boy came in at 8 pounds and 14 ounces.
While the champion is looking to put on a career high payday bout with boxing phenom Floyd Mayweather Jr., the fighter will surely be adding some time away from his training for the recent birth og his son.
Most recently, Conor McGregor took to social media to share a picture of the baby boy. “Dee and Junior are doing great everyone! Thank you for all the kind words, I am one proud and blessed Daddy ❤️.” He said.
