Already?
Conor McGregor might have achieved a hell of a lot in his short UFC career, but even so we were still surprised with former fighter Chael Sonnen's claim that the Irishman has already done enough to book his place in the sport's Hall of Fame.
McGregor's brash personality and series of knockout victories have endeared to fans in Ireland and around the world, leading to huge ticket and pay-per-view sales when he is on the card.
His UFC 189 fight against Chad Mendes generated huge money and his title fight with Jose Aldo in December is expected to break more records.
And Sonnen, famed for his own outspoken and often controversial style, believes that McGregor's current place in the sport means his legacy is secure.
"If his story ends right now, if he never wins again - if Jose Aldo kicks his ass and then three more guys come along and kick his ass - he will go down in the Hall of Fame some day," Sonnen said on an appearance on former WWE wrestler
Stone Cold Steve Austin's podcast.
"He's got the interim championship, he's sold more goddamn tickets than anybody in his short career. I think he's only had five UFC fights [it's six], but he's selling out arenas. He sold out an arena in Ireland on his third fight.
"His place is already set. He doesn't know that, that's one of the great things when you're a champion, you can enjoy what people write about you but you can never believe it. As soon as you start believing it you're in trouble."
