Conor McGregor  headlined a UFC fight card for the first time ever when he fought Diego Brandao back in 2014 in just his 3rd fight inside the Octagon. What was better for McGregor was that he got to fight in his hometown of Dublin, Ireland.

Diego Brandao, at the time, had won three of his last four fights. Like Nate Diaz, Brandao is known to be a fighter who is extremely aggressive and will exchange shots in the pocket. However, McGregor used his distance against Brandao and dictated most of the fight. Watch below!
