It may sound like a Apple anti-virus package, but Conor McGregor takes #TheMacLife very seriously.
Whether he nicked the gimmick from Ric Flair or not, Conor McGregor is a real life Rolex wearing, diamond ring wearing, limousine riding, jet flying son of a gun.
Who happens to spend $80,000 (around £60,100 in real money – my word the exchange rate is brutal right now) on suits for every media tour he does.
According to a recent report by TMZ Sports, long-time UFC wardrobe coordinator David Heil — CEO of David August clothing –says McGregor buys eight to 10 custom suits before every media tour, with the outfits ranging anywhere from $4,000 to $10,000.
