Conor McGregor ’s striking coach, Owen Roddy, has a tradition of releasing a video blog series in the lead-up to his pupil’s fights, and UFC 229 is no different. McGregor will make his return to MMA for the first time in nearly two years next week when he challenges lightweight champion Khabib Nurmagomedov in what’s being billed as “the biggest fight in UFC history.” In the first episode of Roddy’s video blog released earlier this week, Roddy and the rest of the SBG Ireland squad leave Ireland for New York to attend the first UFC 229 press conference, then continue on to Las Vegas for the remainder of camp at the UFC Performance Institute. Check out the video blog above. UFC 229 takes place Oct. 6 at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas and airs on pay-per-view following prelims on FX and UFC Fight Pass.
