Camp is officially underway.

Conor McGregor insists he’s never truly out of camp and the UFC featherweight champion looks to be immersed in training ahead of his lightweight title fight with Rafael dos Anjos.

With just 50 days remaining until UFC 197’s super-fight headliner, ‘The Notorious’ has posted a video of himself drilling jumping spinning back kicks with Taekwondo coach Johnny Dargan.

Dargan, a black belt who also fights out of SBG, held pads for McGregor as he worked on the kick by gauging the distance with his elbows.
