If you’ve followed Conor McGregor’s career over the last few years, you’ll have heard him speak about how mental strength is a big part of the game.

The UFC star is back in Dublin at the moment and is training at the SBG gym ahead of his fight with Jose Aldo on December 12.

McGregor took time out this week to sit down with Waterford man John Kinsella who is also a member at the now world-renowned gym.
