Conor McGregor’s dad in training for charity boxing match

It’s not often that you see a father follow his son into business. But that’s the route that Tony McGregor appears to be taking. The 59-year-old born in Liverpool, England – to an Irish father and English mother – likely isn’t going to be making any kind of pro career out of combat sports, but he is making his boxing debut at a Charity event on December 15th.

The father of the ‘Notorious’ former UFC champion will put a six-week training camp behind him when he steps into the ring against Off the Ball radio host Eoin Sheahan.
