Current UFC featherweight champion, Conor McGregor was immortalized by French artist Jean-Baptiste Seckler, who built a bust sculpture of the Irish fighter.

“Hello, Conor. I'm French and I'll be in Las Vegas. You will win! I want to offer you this sculpture in the octagon”, wrote the artist.

McGregor will step into the octagon in the main fight of UFC 196, when he will attempt an unprecedented feat. If you win Rafael dos Anjos, the Irishman will become the first athlete to hold two belts simultaneously in Ultimate.
