Conor McGregor has given mixed martial arts, boxing, and fitness lessons in John Kavanagh's Straight Blast Gym in Dublin.
Kavanagh told Business Insider that McGregor recently took over a beginner's boxing class on a "random Saturday," shouted at people, and showed them how to punch.
When McGregor did teach classes before his UFC days, they were always the busiest lessons because he brings such an energy to the gym, Kavanagh said.
McGregor said last week he is returning to UFC in January and wants to fight three times in 2020.
He was speaking at a press conference in Moscow following a New York Times report that he is facing a second sexual assault investigation in Ireland.
