    Conor McGregor: 'Handcuffed' Jose Aldo is being 'forced into this'
    LAS VEGAS - Over the past year, Conor McGregor and Jose Aldo have locked eyes more times than any other fighters in recent memory. From the insanity of their spring world tour, to the months worth of various P.R. obligations, the two featherweight rivals have developed a sense for their particular brand of staredown.
    But on Wednesday, following the conclusion of UFC 194's pre-fight press conference, the fighting pride of Ireland and the Brazilian legend faced off for the first time with any sort

    "The Notorious" was a much cooler, toned-down-version of his usual histrionic self Wednesday at a UFC 194 press conference. McGregor kept his voice low, never addressed Jose Aldo directly and even bowed to the UFC featherweight champion after the two squared off.

At just 21 years old, VanZant is both young in the game and one of the few strawweights with the potential to become a legitimate crossover star. The road from prospect to contender can be a fragile one, and considering the unabashed brutality of the division's queen Joanna Jedrzejczyk, there's no doubt that the patient route should be the most lucrative route for a fighter like VanZant.

    LAS VEGAS -- Eleven months ago, well before Dennis Siver became a bizarre pit stop on the road to the MacMansion, Conor McGregor hijacked UFC 182's pay-per-view for five minutes to espouse in thorough detail what he was not only going to do to his Russian-German counterpart, but also to the rest of the featherweight division by the time the new year reached its end.
