Conor McGregor parties as Paige VanZant visits his Dublin pub

Conor McGregor partied at his Dublin pub over the weekend, while fellow MMA fighter Paige VanZant was among the visitors to the Black Forge Inn.

The Notorious shared a number of snaps from the Crumlin boozer on social media as he mixed with punters on Saturday night.

Among them was comedian Enya Martin, who McGregor described as an "Irish comedy genius on the rise".

He posted on Instagram: "Great to have the absolutely amazing @gizalaugh_ in the house last night @theblackforgeinn!

"Some woman is our Chanto! Irish comedy genius on the rise! We hope you enjoyed yourself Enya."

VanZant also visited the Black Black Forge Inn in recent days, with Liam Flynn, who works at the pub, sharing a snap with the American on social media.

He said: "Welcome to the home @paigevanzant got the full Irish hospitality loving it."

Former UFC fighter VanZant was in Dublin to watch her husband Austin Vanderford compete at Bellator's 3Arena show last Friday night.

Vanderford was beaten just 1min 25secs into his middleweight bout with Gegard Mousasi.

VanZant previously admitted she couldn't wait to visit McGregor's pub ahead of her trip to Ireland.

She said: “That is like no.1 on our list of things to do in Ireland. I know his dad, his step-dad, and my dad are all extremely excited to go to Conor McGregor’s bar.

She also admitted to meeting McGregor once, adding: "I remember meeting him and telling my dad he was a fight genius and that he was going to be a mega star."
