McGregor took to Instagram to share his latest bit of exciting news, a sponsorship from popular headphone company Beats.

McGregor is of course enjoying fatherhood following the recent birth of his son Jack. With that being said, the lightweight champion’s name has continued to remain in headlines due to his potential boxing superfight with Floyd Mayweather becoming more and more realistic.

With McGregor’s side of the deal done, UFC President Dana White now moves onto negotiating with Mayweather’s team to negotiate Mayweather’s half of a potential boxing deal. While that of course could likely prove to be a harder task than expected, all signs currently point towards both parties moving in a positive direction in regards to negotiations.
