A strong, classic example of a modern Conor McGregor signature. It captures his aggressive signing style perfectly and is an essential piece for any combat sports collection.
Authenticity Assessment
Highly likely authentic
Signature Style
Abstract felt-tip scrawl with vertical orientation and characteristic looping flourishes
Signature Characteristics
Fast, fluid motion with no hesitation marks. High-pressure vertical spikes and a wide-looped base stroke typical of his standing signature posture.

Blue felt-tip marker on heavy white paper stock
Item Description
Individual autograph on a clean, white non-glossy surface, likely a blank index card or promotional sheet.
Estimated Value
$150 - $250 USD (unauthenticated, raw)
Comparison to Known Examples
Consistently matches known 'in-person' examples from the post-2018 era where the signature became more vertical and less legible than his early 2013-2015 'full name' versions.
Authentication Tips
Look for the distinctive vertical 'C' entry and the sharp upward 'M' loop which often resembles a chaotic lightning bolt.
Certification Recommendation
Beckett Authentication Services (BAS) or JSA (James Spence Authentication)
Red Flags
No significant red flags observed; the ink flow shows natural 'shaking' of the marker tip at the end of the stroke, indicating authentic speed.
Provenance Notes
Often obtained at press events or outside training facilities; photos of him signing this specific style are common in the secondary market.
Historical Context
McGregor is the first UFC fighter to hold titles in two weight classes simultaneously and is the sport's biggest box office draw.
Market Trends
Stable; McGregor autographs remain the gold standard for MMA collectors despite his reduced fight frequency.
Investment Potential
Hold; value likely to increase as he approaches retirement and his active signing sessions decrease.
Similar Autographs
Khabib Nurmagomedov, Jon Jones, Nate Diaz
Display & Preservation
Keep away from direct UV light; use acid-free mounting to prevent paper yellowing over time.
Interesting Facts
McGregor's early career signature was extremely legible; as his fame grew, it evolved into this abstract, faster 'scribble' style to accommodate crowds.
