Conor McGregor brought in rising jiu-jitsu player Dillon Danis to help him prepare for his rematch with Nate Diaz, and he’s also training with Irish boxing champ, Conor Wallace.

The latter is a six time, national boxing champ and has represented Ireland internationally.

McGregor and Diaz are scheduled to fight in the main event of UFC 202, which will take place on August 20th in Las Vegas. Diaz won their first battle this past March, by submitting the Irish star in the second round.

Recently the following pictures and comments made the rounds via social media.

Thank you Michael Conlan, Paddy Barnes and Conor Wallace! Great to train and spar with our Olympic boxers today! #NordieTough #GreatWork
