UFC Champion Conor McGregor Makes His Film Debut
Conor McGregor, the first fighter in UFC history to simultaneously hold two championship belts, has said he may very well conquer the sports of boxing and wrestling, and even acting, in the future but, is Conor McGregor training to become a jockey?

The UFC Champion was spotted at The Stronach Group owned Santa Anita Racetrack in Arcadia, California, training with comedian John Lovitz last week. Turns out they were shooting a short film series for the upcoming $12 Million Pegasus World Cup Invitational, the world’s richest horse race, taking place on Jan. 28 at Gulfstream Park in South Florida.

It doesn’t seem so far-fetched as the winner of the Pegasus World Cup Invitational will win a record $7 million prize and no one loves winning money more than the champ himself.
