UFC superstar Conor McGregor continues to diversify his portfolio while still being a household name.
McGregor, 35, has become a successful whiskey connoisseur and pub owner in recent years, with the former venture adding millions of pounds to his bank balance.
The Irish recently put himself on the right path to becoming a future combat sports promoter, becoming a shareholder in bare-knuckle boxing promotion BKFC.
But The Notorious’ investment in combat sports didn’t stop there.
The former two-weight UFC champion recently became an investor in Alta Global Group, the parent company of Train Alta.
Train Alta is an online platform that offers online and in-gym training for beginner mixed martial artists around the world.
McGregor’s investment in Train Alta’s parent company comes as no surprise, as the platform’s founder is none other than his trainer and mentor John Kavanagh.
It is unclear how much McGregor has invested in Alta Global Group, although the company’s recent filing of a 13G filing with Alta Global Group USAThe United States Securities and Exchange Commission suggests it is more than 5%.
Alta Global Group CEO John Langton recently said of McGregor’s investment: “Conor offers huge value to us in terms of brand recognition, audience and obviously gym owner growth.”
McGregor is just weeks away from making his first Octagon appearance in nearly three years.

McGregor’s desert fight with Chandler will be his first outing since he broke his left leg in his trilogy fight with Dustin Poirier in July 2021.
And he plans to use his once-broken limb to get back into the win column in emphatic fashion.
In a recent interview with James CordenHe said, “I’m the Terminator now.
“I have a titanium rod that goes up to my knee and down to the bone, down to my ankle.
“It’s unbreakable.
“I want and will work to land that kick – with that steel bar on the leg – against an opponent and get them out of there.”
