UFC legend Conor McGregor has revealed his gruelling training plan ahead of his return to the octagon next month for the first time in over a year.
The Irishman will face Dustin Poirier in what will be a rematch of their first meeting in 2014 which McGregor won comfortably after a devastating first round KO.
The Irish southpaw is coming into the fight on the back of a victory after he demolished Donald Cerrone 40 seconds into the first round of their fight last year.
McGregor is leaving nothing to chance and in true ‘Notorious’ fashion he has revealed that he is sparring more than ever ahead of the Poirier bout.
Posting on Instagram the UFC star said: “Word just back from the team at @claymoreproductions.
“In the last 6 weeks of my training, I’ve completed 375 minutes of sparring.
“This equates to 75×5 minute rounds. Or 15 championship MMA fights.”
A win over Poirier could see the former two-weight champion secure another chance at the belt that he won back in 2016 against Eddie Alvarez.
McGregor has also teased a return to boxing next year, with Manny Pacquiao viewed as his most likely opponent.
