Let the Joyous News Be Spread: Conor McGregor Is Back in Our Lives (for Now)

Man, oh man.

Light the lantern in Old North Church. Conor McGregor has returned to MMA, and he is ready to ride again.

In the main event Saturday at UFC 246, McGregor (22-4) flashed the creativity, smarts and sheer power he used to conquer the fighting world nearly five years ago. In 2015, McGregor reached new heights when he knocked out featherweight champ Jose Aldo in 13 seconds. It took 40 seconds Saturday for McGregor to lay waste to UFC all-time wins leader Donald "Cowboy" Cerrone (36-14-1) with a convincing TKO.
