The lightning knockout of Conor McGregor about José Aldo, last Saturday (12), in the main fight of UFC 194, continues to give something to talk about. After the video in which the Irishman appeared to achieve an identical knockout in a fight at the beginning of his career, now it was the new featherweight champion's turn to appear training the same blow that dispatched the Brazilian moments before the duel, in the changing rooms.
In the video, released by former UFC fighter Soa Palelei on his official profile on Facebook, McGregor appears warming up for the fight and executing the movement that culminated in his knockout in 13 seconds, a step back and a cross.
The behind-the-scenes video was synchronized with the fight for the featherweight belt and impresses with the similarity of the blows delivered by the Irishman, even down to the smallest details.
Practice makes perfect! #UFC194
