UFC star Conor McGregor backs down from no man, not even the 6ft 9″, 400lb Gregor Clegane, AKA ‘The Mountain’ from the hit TV show,’A Game Of Thrones’ as the footage below shows.

Check out the playful sparring match between the two as McGregor gets to work with body shots against the big man.

Luckily for McGregor his next ‘real’ fight in the Octagon will be against someone who’s more his size, though still a fearsome opponent by anybody’s measure – featherweight champion Jose Aldo in the main event of UFC 194 on December 12th in Las Vegas.
