Notorious: The Biography of Conor McGregor

 


The Dubliner has achieved more in three years with the UFC than anyone in the 20 year history of the organization. From an unknown prospect to the first man to hold two world titles simultaneously, McGregor's knockout-filled march through the featherweight and lightweight rankings sent shockwaves through the world. But as effortless as McGregor's heroics seem, his journey was far from smooth. Just another teenager trading martial arts techniques with his friends, he chased a pipe dream with little promise of reward. No one guessed he would become the biggest pay-per-view attraction in the world. This is not another tale of an athlete born exceptional and groomed for success. It is about how one young man, through bloody-minded determination and indomitable spirit, changed the whole game.
I am a person who finds balance between intense action and quiet relaxation, drawn to the strategic drama of combat sports while cultivating a laid-back lifestyle. I am fascinated by both the authentic athleticism of MMA and the theatrical storytelling of Pro Wrestling, enjoying the different kinds of excitement each world offers. My newest interest is collecting sports cards, which lets me connect with the history and value of these athletic pursuits on a whole new level. Geographically, my life is spread across key American cities, with deep roots in Houston, Miami, Los Angeles, and Boston, giving me a coast-to-coast perspective that blends the diverse cultures of the South, the West Coast, and New England.
