Conor McGregor To Donate $1 Million To First Responders

Former two division UFC champion Conor McGregor hasn’t competed since UFC 229, where he suffered a fourth round submission loss to UFC Lightweight Champion Khabib Nurmagomedov.

The fighter could be returning to action early next year, but until then, a charitable donation is being made by McGregor in the meantime.
