The first UFC double division champion Conor McGregor was born in Dublin, Ireland, and raised in Crumlin. He is the son of Tony and Margaret McGregor. The Irishman’s father wanted his son to become a plumber. Wonder how he feels about his son’s career choice now. Despite the public acknowledgment of his unprecedented success inside the octagon, a lot remains unknown about his personal life. Let’s explore Notrious’ mother, Margaret.
Amid all the bravado and toughness, Margaret McGregor described her son as a “mummy’s boy” as per a report from the Irish Central. Margaret said:
“You will get some haters, but the majority love him for who he is. He’s honest. He’s very generous. I think he gives a lot of people hope. He is everything you see, but he’s still honest and says it how it is. I’m extremely proud of him. He is a mummy’s boy. He’d probably kill me for saying that but he is.”
