As Conor McGregor begins to prepare for the biggest fight of his life, a UFC featherweight title bout against Jose Aldo which is likely to take place this summer, it's worth remembering that, according to Conor himself, he has been ready for this for a long time.

In March 2013, Cage Warriors shot a quick promo for a documentary on one of their rising stars, and Conor McGregor has since gone on to enjoy a meteoric rise to fame and an almost unprecedented ascension of the UFC featherweight rankings to find himself in the position he is today. At the time, those who saw it may have thought that he was perhaps a tad delusional, but not Conor, who has gone on to back up his talk time and time again.

What ya think, I'm afraid of him like? Man, I would fight that guy in a heartbeat.
