Conor McGregor has a number of celebrity fans these days, and as UFC 196 approaches, Gordon Ramsay has added his name to that list.
Despite the fact that his originally scheduled fight against Rafael dos Anjos was cancelled due to the Brazilian suffering a broken foot, McGregor will still fight on the card at UFC 196.
His opponent this time is Nate Diaz, and the two have already had plenty to say to and about each other in the build up to the bout.
Ahead of the fight card on March 5th, celebrity chef Gordon Ramsay took to Twitter to reveal that he would be heading off to Las Vegas to watch McGregor in action.
