Video – UFC star Conor McGregor shadowboxes in front of rap icon Snoop Dogg during Dublin meet up

Two worlds collided last night in the Irish capital, as former two-weight UFC champion, Conor McGregor met up with rap star and generational icon, Snoop Dogg after the latter’s appearance in Dublin at a concert. McGregor, a former undisputed lightweight and featherweight championship holder under the banner of the UFC, has been sidelined from the […]

McGregor, a former undisputed lightweight and featherweight championship holder under the banner of the UFC, has been sidelined from the Octagon since he headlined UFC 264 back in July 2021, fracturing his left tibia and fibula in a first round doctor’s stoppage TKO loss to Dustin Poirier.

Sidelined since suffering his gruesome injury, Crumlin striker, McGregor, who recently saw noted plans for an Octagon comeback at UFC 296 in December in a welterweight fight with Michael Chandler quashed, has now been pegged to fight sometime next year instead by UFC CEO, Dana White.

Practising his striking on a boxing machine at his Black Forge Inn pub in Dublin over the course of the weekend, McGregor appeared to miss the chance to meet with the above-mentioned, Snoop Dogg, who was pictured at the public house, eating food and sporting one of the ex-champion’s title belts.

However, performing last night in the capital, McGregor posted a picture of himself driving to the venue – topless no less, before pictures emerged overnight of the Dubliner and Snoop Dogg posing for a series of snaps.

As well as McGregor’s long-time tenure with the UFC, the above-mentioned, Snoop Dogg also served as a color commentator on Dana White’s Contender Series previously alongside former UFC bantamweight title challenger and former WEC champion, Urijah Faber.

Snoop Dogg infamously also called the Contender Series debut of recently-minted undisputed bantamweight champion, Sean O’Malley.

In 2017, Snoop Dogg was a guest commentator on Dana White’s Contender Series the very night that Sean O’Malley made his first appearance with the promotion. O’Malley scored a highlight-reel-worthy first-round knockout of his opponent, Alfred Khashakyan, to earn a contract with the UFC. Following the win, Snoop Dogg famously exclaimed O’Malley’s name multiple times, officially kickstarting what would come to be known as the ‘Sugar Show.’

Sean O’Malley Lights Up with Snoop Dogg

After his win on DWCS, Sean O’Malley revealed that he joined Snoop Dogg in his trailer where the pair smoked a joint together while watching the highlights from his history-making knockout.

“Right when I walked into his trailer, he handed me a joint and I was pumped. It felt like a movie because I walked into his trailer and he’s got his bodyguards, he’s got a couple of other people in there, and there was like three joints going around,” O’Malley said on The MMA Hour. “I was puffin’ and passin’, trying to keep up, and they had a TV in there playing highlights of my fight, so we’re watching that and smoking, it was so much fun. It was only like 20 or 30 minutes, but it was a good time and a memory forever” (h/t MiddleEasy).

The night that O’Malley earned his contract with the promotion, Snoop Dogg dubbed ‘Sugar’ a future world champion. Six years later, O’Malley is exactly that, defeating the man that many believed to be the greatest bantamweight in the history of the division.

Sean O’Malley Credits Snoop Dogg For Influencing His Success

UFC bantamweight star Sean O’Malley has credited music icon Snoop Dogg for aiding in his developing stardom and success in mixed martial arts. Currently, O’Malley sits at #1 in the UFC’s 135-pound rankings, a spot he secured with a five-fight unbeaten streak that includes three knockout wins, four bonuses, and a victory over the division’s…

Brendan Schaub Says “You’re Not Getting Another Jon Jones”: UFC LHW Title Will Get “Passed Around Like A Doobie At A Snoop Dogg Concert”

Brendan Schaub believes that there won’t be another champion as dominant as Jon Jones. This past weekend, Jiri Prochazka created history when he dethroned Glover Teixeira to become the new light heavyweight king at UFC 275. He also became the first Czech champion in the promotion and received major backing from legendary fighters such as […]

Brendan Schaub believes that there won’t be another champion as dominant as Jon Jones.

This past weekend, Jiri Prochazka created history when he dethroned Glover Teixeira to become the new light heavyweight king at UFC 275. He also became the first Czech champion in the promotion and received major backing from legendary fighters such as Georges St-Pierre who tout him to have a commanding reign ahead.

Brendan Schaub doesn’t think that there will be another Jon Jones

When it comes to any champion in the UFC, and especially in the 205-lbs division, Jones is widely considered to be the gold standard for other athletes given his accomplishments. The former two-time UFC Light Heavyweight title holder successfully defended the strap 11 times and has never lost a bout where the title was on the line.

In the latest episode of the Schaub Show, Brendan Shaub shared his thoughts on why he believes the 205-lbs title will continue to change hands despite Prochazka’s abilities.

“I think [the UFC light heavyweight belt] gets circulated just non-stop,” Schaub said. “I think that thing gets passed around like a doobie at a Snoop Dogg concert; just here you go, here you go, here you go, here you go.

“I think you’re going to get multiple world champions in the next two years and when I look at the division, you know, unless there’s some freak that comes along soon that we haven’t heard of, you’re not getting another Jon Jones in this lifetime; a guy who’s just absolutely dominant.” (h/t Sportkeeda)

UFC Light Heavyweight title’s recent history

Jan Blachowicz won the vacant title after Jones’ absence against Dominick Reyes in September 2020. His only title defense came against the reigning UFC Middleweight king Israel Adesanya, who moved up a weight class to test out his chops. ‘The Legendary Polish Power’ would go on to drop the crown in his next fight to Glover Teixeira.

From Teixeira’s win over Blachowicz last October, the UFC Light Heavyweight gold has changed hands three times in just the last seven months.

It remains to be seen whether Jiri Prochazka is able to add some stability to the division and emulate a run similar to Jones’ early career. While there has not been an official announcement, he will likely face Blachowicz in his first title defense.

Meanwhile, Jones has been out of action for over two years now gearing up to make his heavyweight debut. He’s expected to face Stipe Miocic for the interim title sometime later this year.

Do you agree with Brendan Schaub on his take?

Snoop Dogg Credits Conor McGregor For UFC 264 Aftermath

Former UFC champion Conor McGregor shocked many with his UFC 264 rant towards Dustin Poirier in his post-fight interview. But, rapper Snoop Dogg was impressed by McGregor’s ability to remain a promoter while being evaluated for a broken leg. McGregor lost his trilogy to Poirier after shattering his leg in the closing seconds of the […]

McGregor lost his trilogy to Poirier after shattering his leg in the closing seconds of the first round. The fight was called off and Poirier earned the win via doctor’s stoppage.

McGregor still somehow agreed to do a post-fight interview with commentator Joe Rogan following the disappointing finish. He took the time to vocalize his demand for vengeance against Poirier, and also took shots at Poirier’s wife as they left the octagon.

During his 2021 Year in Review show with comedian Kevin Hart, Snoop praised McGregor for his post-fight antics.

“Conor McGregor broke his leg during a fight and it was nasty,” Snoop said. “But I love his tenacity and his fierce way of fighting – He was talking s*** after he broke his leg!

“He’s going ‘I’ll f*** him up, there’s nothing he can do to me,’ and his leg was f***ed up and I’m like ‘Cus still talking s***?’!” (h/t The Mirror)

Conor McGregor Is Planning A Return In 2022

McGregor is still recovering from his leg injury and is planning a return to the UFC in 2022. There have been many names who are possible suitors for his return opponent, including Michael Chandler and a fourth fight with Poirier.

McGregor raised plenty of eyebrows with his vicious remarks towards Poirier before and after the fight. Many, including UFC president Dana White, felt that McGregor crossed the line by invoking family into his trash talk.

Former UFC bantamweight champion Ronda Rousey also gave McGregor credit for the rant. While some have turned against McGregor over the years, it appears that Snoop is still riding with him.

To the surprise of no one, American rapper Snoop Dogg smoked marijuana while doing commentary for Dana White’s Contender Series in 2017.

The rapper, otherwise known as Calvin Broadus, joined the broadcast team alongside UFC veteran Urijah Faber. Dogg and Faber were a part of the commentary team that was dubbed ‘Snoopcast’, an alternate form of commentary separate from the official broadcast.

During a recent appearance on the Joe Rogan Experience, Dogg gave an insight into his commentary appearances

“You know what people don’t know when they see me all these calling sports and calling fights when I’m an analyst,” Dogg said.

“I was on there smoking like a motherf**ker the first couple of fights.”

“They were like ‘hold on, the rules and regulations to fight, the smoke has got to be in this section over here. So we had our little booth where I was announcing and we had to smoke all for the set and watch the fight from the booth.”

Snoop Dogg Is A Big Fan, And Promoter, of Combat Sports

Dogg was a commentator on the recent Mike Tyson vs. Roy Jones Jr. boxing exhibition last year. Jake Paul was also on that same card in the co-main event against former NBA star Nate Robinson.

Dogg has partnered up with Triller to create The Fight Club boxing league. The promotion will host an upcoming triad combat event featuring former UFC stars Mike Perry, Frank Mir, and Matt Mitrione.

Dogg and Triller also hosted the Evander Holyfield vs. Vitor Belfort card earlier this year.

Dogg has also had a longtime relationship with UFC president Dana White and the UFC brass. He’s attended numerous events and big fights to see Conor McGregor, Jon Jones, and others.
