Conor McGregor delivers medical supplies to children’s hospital in Ireland

Conor McGregor has stepped up to the plate in his home country of Ireland amid the COVID-19 pandemic.

The former UFC featherweight and lightweight champion revealed last month that he would purchase over $1 million worth of personal protective equipment to be “deployed to all the fighting hospitals in the Leinster region” in Ireland. On Thursday, McGregor made a personal delivery to Our Lady Children’s Hospital at Crumlin in Dublin, which is the largest pediatric hospital in the nation.

“The Notorious” documented the moment via his Instagram page:

McGregor has been one of Ireland’s outspoken advocates when it comes to social distancing and getting out in front of the pandemic.
