Conor McGregor's counter punching in UFC is glorious to watch

A video on Twitter has shown how lethal Conor McGregor can be when he is at the top of his game.

The video was accompanied with a simple tweet that read: “Conor McGregor’s counter punching.”

It is the video itself that does all the talking, as it shows McGregor reacting to his opponent’s attacks by dodging then hitting back with hard hits.

There is a lot of attention on McGregor at the minute as Notorious is set for a return to the Octagon this year.

There are various clips on the video that show how dominant McGregor, the highest-paid UFC fighter ever, was during his time at the top of the game.

The former two-weight champion is recovering after a severe leg break in his last fight against Dustin Poirier. 

There have been some questions about whether McGregor will be able to return to his best because of the injury and because of his poor recent record in UFC. Notorious hasn’t won a bout in two years, losing three of his last four fights.
