Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Conor Mcgregor (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Drew Fournier (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Mcgregor has a slight injury, which hopefully won't affect the fight too much. Conor Mcgregor looks tired to me. Hopefully he has got enough gas left in the tank to put in a good performance.
