The results are in, and Conor McGregor is taking his spot on the UFC 2 cover. If you haven’t watched the fight between Conor McGregor and Jose Aldo, sorry for the spoilers, although you’ve no doubt already heard of the results thanks to the insane victory McGregor managed to pull off.
Jose Aldo might have been on top for a whole seven years, but Conor McGregor took him down in a mere 13 seconds. Seriously! That’s the thing about UFC, though, fights can end in the blink of an eye. It’s part of what makes it so exciting.
However, as a result of the big win from McGregor giving him the title of featherweight champion, he’ll now be sharing the UFC 2 cover with Ronda Rousey. Sounds like a well-deserved spot, if you ask me. It’s not very often that you win a fight that quick, much less in a title fight to decide who the new champion will be. That’s a world record, in case you were wondering.
