This fan-made promo for Conor McGregor vs Eddie Alvarez is absolutely glorious

This should get you in the mood.

If this doesn’t get you amped up for UFC 205’s main event, you must have ice running through your veins.

On November 12, 2016 the UFC’s motley crew will make their first trip to New York’s iconic Madison Square Garden to present a night of high-octane mixed martial arts action.

The main event is a legitimate superfight as superstar featherweight champion Conor McGregor takes on veteran brawler Eddie Alvarez for the 155 lb “big-boy” belt. McGregor will be looking to make history by becoming the first fighter to hold two belts in two separate divisions simultaneously, while Alvarez wants to extinguish the star and solidify his legacy as one of the greatest lightweights of all time.

The rest of the card doesn’t look too shabby either, with welterweight champion Tyron Woodley defending his welterweight title against Stephen Thompson and UFC women’s strawweight champ Joanna JÄ™drzejczyk going up against fellow Pole Karolina Kowalkiewicz.

We didn’t even need an official fight announcement to see the first of the inevitable fan-made promos, in the form of this blistering effort from TheUFCGuy.

And if that whetted your appetite but left you wanting more, maybe try watching this superb promo made by BrattMamley MMA and get back to us.
