ABU DHABI – Many have questioned Conor McGregor ’s hunger at this point in his fighting career, but his coach John Kavanagh assures it is still very much there. McGregor, easily the most financially successful fighter in MMA history, has been sitting on the sidelines since he broke his leg against Justin Poirier in 2021. Many have questioned McGregor’s motivation and interest in fighting, given that he’s recovered from his injury and has yet to step back in the octagon. But for Kavanagh, head coach of SBG Ireland, there’s no doubt McGregor is still game for fighting and sees the same level of hunger than when he started working with the Irishman back when he was just a teenager
