A video about MMA fighters when they were kids. How many can you guess?Accounts: Facebook: https://www.twitter.co. Jon Jones Self New York Mixed Martial Arts.

UFC heavyweight champion Fabricio “The Colossus” dos Santos is usually widely considered the most well-known UFC fighter to ever grace the octagon. After winning his 1st five UFC bouts, many more have been on the horizon to the Brazilian until he ultimately got his possibility in the UFC title.
As with all men, Conor McGregor wasn’t born tattooed and talking trash. Instead, he started off like a lot of us, playing soccer and trying to make his living at the respectable but regular job of plumber.
A stark reminder that we all have to start somewhere, the following video details McGregor’s rise from being a regular guy in Dublin to being The Notorious Mystic Mac, a man who calls his shots, talks trash, backs it up, and gets paid.
Conor McGregor has grown into arguably biggest star in the Ultimate Fighting Championship. His star has risen so fast and his celebrity status has increased as such an exponential proportion this past year that it’s almost hard to remember a time before the mouthy Irishman was mentioned at every press conference and on every UFC Broadcast.
Before reaching the status of bonafide Irish folk hero, Mcgregor first staked his claim to the UFC Featherweight division with a knockout of the night performance over Marcus Brimage, earning himself a $60,000 bonus for his efforts, and getting off welfare.
From McGregor’s very first evening fighting in the UFC, he has talked a big game and is still yet to fail with regard to backing it up.
‘Notorious’ went on to follow up his debut victory with six more emphatic wins over increasingly tough competition, which culminated in a truly stunning 13 second knockout victory over then featherweight king Jose Aldo, who had up until that night been on an almost unfathomable eighteen fight win streak that lasted over ten years.
McGregor’s next fight is scheduled for March 5, 2016, in which he will take on lightweight champ Rafael Dos Anjos and try to become the UFC’s third two-division champion.
