If there are two people outside of Ireland happy about Conor McGregor’s meteoric rise, you’d have to think it would be UFC co-owners Frank and Lorenzo Fertitta.
The Notorious has raised the profile of UFC worldwide with his trash-talking, and his 13-second demolition of former featherweight champion Jose Aldo will only add to his legacy.
Lorenzo has already made some big claims about McGregor’s future with UFC, but it seems that the older Fertitta brother isn’t quite so pleased with the Irishman.
The video below isn’t the best quality, but it shows Frank Fertitta react to McGregor’s 13-second knock-out of Aldo by slamming the featherweight belt down to the ground in an act that would suggest frustration at another win for The Notorious.

While Frank Fertitta was later seen smiling during the post-fight celebrations, it’s possible that he gave away a bit more than he wanted to in the immediate aftermath of the fight.
