UFC superstar Conor McGregor was cage side for Saturday’s UFC Fight Night 118 in Gdansk, Poland. As SBG Ireland’s Artem Lobov was set to take on Andre Fili on the day’s card, McGregor was present to support his teammate and training partner. Of course, Lobov would go on to suffer a unanimous decision defeat to his opponent.
