Conor McGregor UFC news: Video shows Notorious partying in club after Cerrone victory

A new video shows Conor McGregor parting the night away in Las Vegas in the wake of his triumphant UFC return.

The 31-year-old announced his return to the big stage with a 40-second demolition of Donald Cerrone at the T-Mobile Arena.

And the Notorious and his family and friends were in celebrating mood when they arrived at his official afterparty at Encore Beach Club on the Las Vegas strip.

The nightclub have released a video montage, below, of the night with a jubilant McGregor interacting with fans and toasting his victory.

He was joined at the club by his partner Dee Devlin and members of his coaching team.

Draped in an Irish tricolour, he thanked fans for their support and said it helped seal the win against Donald Cerrone.

He said to the crowd: "What's up Ireland? Thank you all so much for the support.

"Let's get this party started.

"This support got me the win tonight."

The Notorious then raised his arms and looked to the roof as "All I do is win" by DJ Khaled thumped from the speakers.

Encore describes itself as "the hottest ticket in town" and "the party doesn't stop" on their website and was last year named the Las Vegas Day Club of the Year.

The club offers: "26 cabanas stocked with their own refrigerator, flat-screen TV and plush daybeds let guests enjoy the pool party in total comfort. 

"Eight bungalows each offer a private bathroom, infinity dipping pool, cooling system, a view of the Las Vegas Strip from a private balcony and an exciting, oasis-like pool scene."

McGregor was unsurprisingly the centre of attention with camera phones flashing in his face - with everyone in the club wanting to get a snap of the comeback kid.

He signed a punter's shoe before pretending to take a shoey, ie the act of drinking from a shoe - a practise made famous by Australian F1 driver Daniel Ricciardo on podiums after races.
