Ireland’s number one MMA fighter is a larger than life character. Thankfully, he’s got the style nous to back it up.

With HTC’s most beautifully designed phone yet, the HTC One m8, going on sale in Ireland this Friday, we continue our evolution of style series by looking at the Irish MMA fighter Conor McGregor and how he always dresses to impress.

UFC 167: St-Pierre v Hendricks

MMA is one of the fastest growing sports on the planet and Conor McGregor is flying the Irish flag with some brilliant performances. He’s got cockiness in spades, but it’s not without substance. His dapper look outside of the ring has won him many plaudits from style connoisseurs everywhere.

He’s a great man for the inspirational quotes, but one of his best is perhaps reflective of how he views style, when he said ‘All that matters is how you see yourself.’ Conor McGregor has to see himself as a sharp dressed man. With a beard which has gained as much notoriety as the one which belonged to Gordon D’Arcy, Conor effortlessly looks cool and smart in an array of suits, great ties, dicky-bows, crisp, stylish shirts and shoes that a drill sergeant would fall in love with.
