Conor McGregor competes in surprise exhibition boxing bout in Ireland

Conor McGregor stepped through the ropes for an unexpected boxing match Friday. Talks of former two-division UFC champion's return to the octagon have been heating up again recently, and seeing McGregor in action in front of a crowd is a sight that hasn't been witnessed since a bone-snapping loss to Dustin Poirier in 2021. The exhibition boxing match took place at Crumlin Boxing Club in Dublin, Ireland, as part of its Good Friday show, according to Irish Boxing .

McGregor, sporting protective gear, fought in a three-round bout, earning a pair of standing eight-counts. Check out video of McGregor in action below (via irishboxingcom and thefinalbell07 on Instagram): View this post on Instagram
