Watch: Bonus footage of Conor McGregor coaching TUF 31 contestants surfaces online
A new video of Irish superstar Conor McGregor on The Ultimate Fighter 31 has been doing the rounds on the internet.
In the video, the Irishman can be seen giving coaching lessons to the members of his team on the cult UFC show. In the coaching footage, 'The Notorious' can be seen showing techniques to the participants as well as sharing some motivational words with them.
"This is what it costs. Always. Don't wanna keep saying this. You say it to your own self. You push them to their knuckles. Remind yourself of all the type of pressure that you want," said Conor McGregor.
You can see the footage below:
McGregor recently performed coaching duties on TUF 31 against Michael Chandler. The two athletes are expected to lock horns later this year but as time passes by, the MMA world is growing doubtful about the fight coming to fruition.
One of the major reasons for this is the fact that almost half of 2023 has passed but the Irishman has still not re-entered the USADA testing pool. McGregor needs to be enrolled in the pool for at least six months in order to be eligible to compete this year.
It was recently reported that 'Mystic Mac' only has a few hours left to enter the anti-doping pool in order to compete at UFC 296, the final pay-per-view event of the year.
