Paul ‘Bono’ Hewson the warm-up act for Conor ‘The Notorious’ McGregor?
Jimmy Kimmel is going for a full Irish on his hit talk show, this week.
The comedian and TV host will welcome U2 frontman Bono to his Los Angeles studio on Tuesday before receiving a visit, the following day, from the UFC interim featherweight champion.
McGregor is on the promotional push for his UFC 194 unification fight with Jose Aldo Junior and, show-man that he is, warming to his task.

Although it is several notches back from the UFC 189 world promotional tour, both McGregor and Aldo will be fulfilling their media obligations.
An appearance on the Kimmel show will go a long way to bringing the attention to casual sports fans.
The line-up for Tuesday’s live show is immense: Olivia Wilde, Scarlett Johansson, Snoop Dogg, Matt Damon and music from The Killers. In the midst of all that comes Bono.
McGregor appears on Wednesday night, along with Lord of the Rings actress Liv Tyler and tunes from G-Eazy.
The Brazilian remains in his homeland but is expected to touch down in the United States later this week.
