Conor McGregor is a hard man to nail down.
There’s the obvious fighting talent, quick wit, sharp suits and proud Irishness that have marked him out as one of the most high profile sports stars in the world.
Last night McGregor made his debut on Jimmy Kimmel’s chat show, having previously featured on Conan O’Brien.
Kimmel’s show is watched by millions in America, and syndicated worldwide. It is fair to say that the reaction of non-Irish viewers ranged from excited, confused, and downright weird.
Firstly there was the anticipation
Tonight's Jimmy Kimmel Live has Conor McGregor and a brand new Batman V. Superman: Dawn of Justice trailer. What more could you want?

McGregor came across great on Kimmel. Kept it cool, reserved. Didn't go the carnival barker route. Suit game on level 100.

Of course his quick wit was on display
McGregor to #Kimmel: "You talk to people for a lot of money. I beat people up for a lot of money."
