Conor McGregor has found success after donning his soccer shoes. 

While McGregor hasn’t competed in MMA since 2021, the Dubliner recently seems to have taken up a liking for soccer. McGregor recently flex a shoulder tackle during a game, flooring his rival player. 

McGregor’s dabbling in soccer appears to be serious as he has now led his team, Black Forge FC, to a UCFL Premier Division championship win. The former two-division UFC champ shared posted highlights of the 4-3 title win over Mountview CFC on Instagram.

“Elated and exhausted! Won a real tough league,” McGregor wrote. “Winning the league is always the major statement for a team to make! Very impressed and proud! Onwards and upwards we go! #BlackForgeFCWinners”

McGregor hasn’t competed since breaking his leg in a trilogy fight against Dustin Poirier in 2021. While he recovered within the next year, he didn’t get into serious return talks until 2023. After starring as rival coach against Michael Chandler on “The Ultimate Fighter 31,” the two were finally matched up at UFC 303 last year. However, McGregor pulled out at the last minute, citing a toe injury. While he continues to tease a return now and then, Dana White recently said that “Notorious” is unlikely to return anytime soon, and it’s been a while since they have talked.
