Conor McGregor has given €10,000 (approx. $11,620) to a sick Irish boy who needs surgery.
Last year, 5-year-old Bryan Buckley, who is known as Bru, was diagnosed with sepsis, which has since left him unable to eat or walk and with an NG tube in his nose, BreakingNews.ie reports.

Despite being set up in July of last year, the fundraising page had raised just over €3,000 out of the €10,000 goal.
McGregor then made a donation of €10,000 to the account.

Although McGregor intended to remain an anonymous donor, Grainne couldn’t help thanking the MMA fighter on Twitter.
