Video: Conor McGregor cracks pads ahead of Donald Cerrone fight at UFC 246
Conor McGregor is looking sharp ahead of UFC 246.
He returns on Jan. 18 when he takes on Donald Cerrone in the main event of UFC 246 at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas in a welterweight bout, and “The Notorious” is currently finalizing his training camp at the UFC Performance Institute.
And, at least by the video he’s sharing publicly, the former UFC double-champ is looking sharp. McGregor posted some footage where he’s laced up in some boxing gloves, hitting pads with his coaches from Crumlin Boxing Club, Bra Brady and Phil Sutcliffe, as well as his longtime striking coach Owen Roddy.
Check out the footage, via Instagram:

McGregor and Cerrone will take part in a press conference on Wednesday, Jan. 15, three days prior to their fight, where they will come face-to-face for the first time.
The UFC 246 main card airs on pay-per-view following prelims on ESPN and ESPN+.
