About this ebook
10 Years 13 Seconds is the story of Irish MMA fighter Conor McGregor’s emergence as arguably the most compelling sporting figure of the past decade. An explosive 13 second demolition of reigning UFC champion Jose Aldo at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas on December 12th, 2015, marked the completion of McGregor’s journey from welfare to world champ.
This short biography outlines McGregor’s rise to fame and fortune, details the people and environment that forged his unique character, and explains for the general reader why the fast growing and often brutal sport of MMA is set to eclipse boxing on the world stage.
If you haven't yet heard of Conor McGregor, don't worry, you will.
