VIDEO: Marvellous UFC 194 preview charts Conor McGregor’s meteoric rise

McGregor has been calling the shots even before anybody knew his name.

We are just over a week away from the biggest fight the UFC’s featherweight division has ever seen.

The hype machine is thrumming now and FOX Sports are the latest to come out with a preview for the December clash between McGregor and Jose Aldo.

And what a fine job they have done of it.

Using archive footage of a teenage McGregor at John Kavanagh’s Straight Blast Gym, the preview sets the tone for the Dubliner’s remarkable rise.

Also focusing on the Brazilian, who is unbeaten in 10 years, the preview features McGregor in a Rocky robe and his latest ‘Mystic Mac’ prediction.

McGregor prediction

McGregor declares, “We will collide at that first exchange and then that will be it. He will be put away within four minutes.”
