He might pride himself on being one of the most famous mixed martial artists in the world – but Conor McGregor made sure he had FOUR very burly bodyguards out with him while on holiday in Rome on Wednesday.
Stepping out with his fiancée Dee Devlin, Conor even enlisted one staff member to carry his Aperol Spritz for him – as he made his way down the Spanish Steps.
The four protection officers were dressed in matching smart navy suits as they walked either side of the couple who were taking a stroll around the Italian city before heading to Dolce and Gabbana for a shopping spree.

Conor was clearly feeling in the holiday mood as he had been sipping on an Aperol which was later carried by one of the security men right next to him.
The sportsman cut a casual figure in a dark blue polo and jeans while Dee looked stylish in a white jumper and carried a neon green bag with her.
The pair attracted a lot of attention on their trip out as fans gathered outside the Dolce and Gabbana store to take pictures of them as they headed inside.

Conor later took to Instagram to share a video of the pair strolling around as fans snapped pictures of him.
He wrote in the caption: ‘It’s great to see Italy, and especially Rome, on its feet strong and vibrant and energetic and Italian silk on the skin, is it butter, no it’s McGregor and the Italians.’
On his Instagram Story he also shared a clip of him and Dee climbing into their waiting car as fans took pictures through the window.
The pair looked in great spirits as they had a quick kiss before driving back to their hotel.

Conor and Dee have been together since 2008.
The couple have three children together – Conor Jr, four, daughter Croia, two, and Rian, four months – and plan to get married soon.
They met at a night club in Ireland when Conor was just 19 years old.
It comes after Conor showed off his tattooed physique on Monday whilst he took his Rolls Royce for a spin in Miami.
The MMA fighter went shirtless for his Floridian drive, keen to draw attention to his impressive biceps.

Hand on the wheel of his convertible, Conor looked delighted to be sharing the flashy snaps with his 42.5million Instagram followers.
In one candid shot, the former Cage Warriors featherweight and lightweight champion stopped to smoke.
Teasingly alluding to his influence, Conor wrote: ‘Pinch me i’m powerful’.
In full, he penned the snaps: ‘I’m Richer than the whole roster b***h , I’m rick Ross. Rolling around Miami @ufc richest ever in history.

Conor’s late night drive came after he took to social media on Sunday to hail Tyson Fury and Deontay Wilder following the thrilling climax to their trilogy in Las Vegas on Saturday night.
Both men hit the canvas during the bout before Fury eventually secured a brutal 11th round knockout.
