Currency Exchange Advice From Conor McGregor?

of UFC are probably also fans of Conor McGregor, the outspoken star of the scene. With success comes money, and Conor is certainly on the happy-bus in that regard. He earned $500,000 for his July win over Chad Mendes, and $590,000 for his last impressive 13 second win over Jose Aldo – but this is nothing compared to the Pay Per View earnings.
