Conor McGregor vows to land UFC knockout rate record before career end: ‘I’m getting this record’

Conor McGregor is determined to steal the UFC knockout record that both Matt ‘The Immortal’ Brown and Derrick Lewis currently share.

Brown, 42, lived up to his moniker on Saturday night at UFC Charlotte, scoring his 13th career knockout inside the Octagon against fellow veteran Court McGee. With the win, Brown jumped to the top of the all-time knockouts list, sharing the running record with heavyweight knockout artist Derrick Lewis. Following his victory, Brown vowed to continue pursuing highlight-reel finishes in hopes of one day being the sole owner of the illustrious record.
