PICS: Conor McGregor given custom ‘Notorious’ Rolls Royce ahead of UFC 205

What a set of wheels…

The UFC is making its long awaited debut in New York this week following the recent lifting of the ban on MMA in the state.

We saw yesterday the kind of meals that Conor McGregor is eating in order to make his weight cut down to 155 pounds, and recently, The Notorious didn’t mince his words when speaking about his opponent, lightweight champion Eddie Alvarez.

Ahead of their clash this weekend, McGregor has been gifted a custom Rolls Royce Ghost to drive around in, which is worth close to €320,000.

A nice perk of the job, huh?

What do Noel Gallagher and Conor McGregor have in common? We know that was the next logical question here, and the answer is the fact that they’ve both been given a free Rolls Royce.

When sales of Oasis’ first two albums passed the 18 million mark, Alan McGee, his record company boss, bought Noel a chocolate-brown vintage Rolls-Royce as he’d said in an interview he wanted one.

He famously said on The Jonathan Ross Show, that the gifts he and Liam received weren’t exactly practical: “Liam got a Rolex. I got a Rolls Royce. Which is brilliant, because I can’t drive and Liam can’t tell the time.”
