The Notorious will see you now.

Life as a UFC fighter is not easy, but for a man like Conor McGregor you always feel that he might already have one eye on life outside of the Octagon.

The Dubliner has risen to one of the sports biggest names in just a matter of years, and he thinks that once his fighting career is over he could be a major asset to the UFC backroom team.

So much so that he has revealed in an interview on the set of The Ultimate Fighter that he wants to be part of the UFC machine along with Dana White and Lorenzo Fertitta when he’s hung up his Reebok sponsored gear.

The Notorious has been speaking to KLAS-TV in Vegas and make sure to listen out for some golden moments such as what the UFC really stands for.

The Dubliner also explains how lucky he feels to be at the very top of his sport and how he always had a dream to be a champion and now the dream has come true.

“There’s not a day I wake up and do not pinch myself, and be grateful for everything in my life. I knew everything would happen.”

“You always hear, ‘I can’t believe it, I can’t believe it’, but I could believe it and I did believe it. That’s why it happened.”
