[WATCH] Conor McGregor Shows Slick BJJ Skills – RNC & Armbar Setup

Conor McGregor is expected to return to the UFC relatively soon, as it’s been confirmed that he’s re-entered USADA’s testing pool as of October 8th (though UFC is parting ways with the doping agency).
And, even though “The Notorious” is known for his striking prowess, he is also a very skilled BJJ black belt!

Footage appeared of his training in a BJJ gym in Mallorca, Spain – McGregor is having lots of fun and showing off his skills.
Watch his RNC and Armbar setups on the video below:

Conor McGregor’s promotion to BJJ black belt took place early September this year, with the belt being wrapped around McGregor’s waist by his long-time coach and friend John Kavanagh.
“The Notorious” shared the news via social media:

Received my black belt tonight from my coach, friend, and mentor, John Kavanagh of SBG Ireland!

20 years of hard work! Thank you John for everything over the years, and to all of my team mates throughout this incredible Jiu Jjitsu journey! Thank you all so much from the bottom of my heart!
A Brazilian Jiu Jitsu black belt, wow!

Praise be to God and then Helio.
I’ll be in the Gi in it tomorrow Helio, I promise, and I cannot wait!
