Conor Anthony McGregor (Irish: Conchúr Antóin Mac Gréagóir;[10] born 14 July 1988) is an Irish professional mixed martial artist, professional boxer, businessman, and actor. He is a former Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) Featherweight and Lightweight Champion, becoming the first UFC fighter to hold UFC championships in two weight classes simultaneously.[11] He is also a former simultaneous Cage Warriors Featherweight and Lightweight Champion.

Known for his counter-striking skills, striking precision and knockout power, the majority of McGregor's victories in mixed martial arts have come by way of knockout or technical knockout via punches. His signature style off arena is to repeatedly engage in trash talk against his opponents, which has led to earning him the moniker The Notorious. Throughout his career, McGregor has become the subject of many controversies due to his behavior.

McGregor is the biggest pay-per-view (PPV) draw in mixed martial arts (MMA) history, having headlined the five highest-selling UFC PPV events.[12] His bout with Khabib Nurmagomedov at UFC 229 drew 2.4 million PPV buys, the most ever for an MMA event.[13] His debut professional boxing match, during which he was defeated by Floyd Mayweather Jr.,[14] drew over 5.3 million buys across the United States and the United Kingdom.[15][16][17] He is credited with popularizing mixed martial arts and the UFC around the globe.[18]

McGregor was ranked as the world's highest-paid athlete by Forbes in 2021, earning a reported $180 million.[19] He also featured in the list in 2018, when he was ranked fourth, with a reported income of $99 million.[20]
