The life of Reilly*.
*McGregor.
This being an undisputed world champion nonsense isn’t so bad after all. In truth, Conor McGregor was always that anyway – he just didn’t have the belt do go along with the lifestyle and performances.
But since his brutal 13-second knockout of Jose Aldo, things have cranked up a gear even by The Notorious’ own standards.
The UFC featherweight champion has had no end of call-outs from other fighters but he had one sweet, simple response to all of them.
He’s enjoying his time at the top and it suits him well.
It starts with rubbing shoulders with one of the most renowned musicians of the last three decades.

Then he comes back to Dublin and does what he does best.

But he’s also been promoting some new Reebok gear and, naturally, that grabbed plenty of attention.

That comes with the natural reaction though.
Some offer free advice.

@TheNotoriousMMA you definitely should make your own shirts as well. @Reebok has been known to fuck shit up!

Some just want free stuff.

False advertising otherwise, surely.
