Conor McGregor Looks Like He's Taking To His New Weight Division Pretty Well

This article originally appeared on TheSPORTBible.

On March 5th Conor McGregor has the chance to make history and by the looks of things the Irishman is certainly big enough for the challenge. Making a step up in weight can sometimes be difficult but clearly not for the Notorious...

After claiming the Featherweight title from Jose Aldo, McGregor will attempt to take the Lightweight title from Rafael dos Anjos. McGregor, who has struggled in the past to get down to the 145 lbs limit, will obviously prefer not having to cut so much weight but we didn't think he'd look this good for it!

Fellow lightweight Peter Queally is by his side in the photo we assume to show how big he is at the moment:

It's not the first time that McGregor has fought at 155 lbs and he was also Lightweight champion for the Cage Warriors Fighting Championship promotion where he became their first dual weight champ, the same record he's hoping to grab for the UFC.
