Back in 2015, Conor McGregor was a part of The Ultimate Fighter. He had his own team and did a hell of a lot with those team members.
The Ultimate Fighter is an American reality series that revolved around Mixed Martial Arts. The contestants on the show were pro MMA aspirants. The contestants on the show were guided and mentored by the top fighters in the UFC. The show began in the early 2000s and has aired a total of 16 seasons till now.
One of the seasons saw ‘The Notorious’ Conor McGregor as a team lead and mentor. He stood against a team headed by Faber Urijah. During this season, Dana White had organized a pool party for all the contestants so that they could take a break from their grueling schedule for a change.

Conor McGregor turns the cameras off!
Dana White left no stone unturned. He went all out for his fighters. The party involved a DJ, a massive pool, lovely weather, barbecue, and beer as well. All this along with the company of some gorgeous women. This was the perfect example of a business with pleasure!
Conor McGregor and Urijah Faber were also at this party. And seemed to enjoy it just as much as their fighters. Conor said, “Dana recognized that these fighters were getting frustrated. He brought a lot of nice, friendly women to have fun with them, and that’s what happened, we had fun today.”
