Just a few days away now…

We’ve already seen the scrumptious food that Conor McGregor eats, even when he is cutting weight, and we heard what he thinks about his opponent at the weekend, Eddie Alvarez.

The long-awaited match-up between the pair will finally take place this weekend and both camps look to be in a relaxed mood as the final stages of preparation take place.

Although UFC 205 took a hit yesterday when former UFC light heavyweight champion Rashad Evans pulled from his bout on the card with Tim Kennedy over medical issues. Luckily there’s just the three title fights, Weidman v Romero, Nurmagomedov v Johnson and Stephens V Edgar to look forward to instead.

But, what better way to add a bit of fire to your belly than by putting a picture of your opponent on a punch bag and allowing yourself to unleash a barrage of strikes on your inanimate opponent.

We wonder if Eddie will find hitting McGregor this easy come the early hours of Sunday morning, Irish time.
