Conor McGregor identifies role for himself in Dana White's Power Slap League

UFC star Conor McGregor is keen on serving as a colour commentator for Dana White's new Power Slap League.

McGregor is seemingly a fan of the new Power Slap league despite many fans criticising its introduction and labelling it "not a real sport." In Power Slap, competitors alternate between “slapper” and “defender” roles and each have up to 30 seconds to deliver a slap and recover from taking a slap.

Points are scored based on the slapper's effectiveness and the defender’s recovery time, with the traditional 10-point must system that MMA and boxing implement also being used to score contests. Former two-weight UFC champion McGregor is a fan of Power Slap and wants to serve as the league's version of Joe Rogan, who has served as a UFC commentator for over 20 years.
