CONOR MCGREGOR took team bonding to a new level by getting a haircut from one of his students on The Ultimate Fighter.
The Notorious spent some downtime with his prospects at the athlete’s multi-million-pound Las Vegas mansion during the second episode of TUF – which was filmed earlier this year.

And he opted to get a trim from bantamweight Mando Guttierez, who had been dishing our cuts to his fellow fighters.
The Irishman made his request by saying: “Trim around the ears.
“I like a good stuble but I don’t want it too [short]. I know it’s grown.”
Gutierrez quickly got to work and told McGregor he’d indulge in his soon-to-be-released Forged Stout after the competition.
McGregor replied: “Ah, yeah, of course. We’ll have a little toast backstage.”
A clearly-excited Guttierez then began to chew McGregor’s ear off about how much he’s enjoying training under the former double champ and his team.
He said: “The system you guys are bringing, I’ve been thriving in that.
“I feel like I’ve been learning a lot of good stuff.

“And we had a good time in just the short time we’ve been together.
“So I’m ready to go out there and put it all out in the cage.
“It’s subtle changes that are making a difference, not major groundbreaking things.”
McGregor, 34, didn’t say a word as Guttierez nattered on – and his silence didn’t go unnoticed by MMA fans.
One said: “Even McGregor couldn’t get a word in.”
Another said: “Conor seems to be the type of guy who prefers silence while getting cut.”

And another said: “Bro really talked for a good minute and a half.”
One remarked: “I hate talking while getting a haircut as well. I feel Conor’s pain.”
Another chimed in: “Stop talking for a second man.”
McGregor’s opposite number in his second TUF stint is none other than upcoming opponent Michael Chandler.
Team McGregor are currently 1-0 down in the series following Roosevelt Robert’s eight-second KO of Nate Jennerman.
A date for McGregor’s eagerly-anticipated comeback fight with Chandler has yet to be announced, although it’s seemingly on course to take place at UFC 296 on December 16.
