Fight fans were quick to comment on the Irishman’s frame in the suit
McGregor, 34, arrived for the first day of filming at the UFC Apex dressed to the nines in a dapper purple suit.
But it was his frame, not the suit itself, that got fight fans’ chins wagging as he strolled into the venue.
One tweeted: “Oh s**t. He’s got the ‘squatters walk” Looks strong too.”
Another said: “There he is. Looks to be about 185lbs, or 84 Kg, or 13.23 st.”
And another said: “He THICC BOI!”
One remarked: “Bro thinks he can swap himself out with his meaty twin and we wouldn’t notice.”
Another chimed in: “Looks hella bloated lol.”
One said: “That dude is not making 155.”
Another UFC fan chimed in: “This MF is a tank how is he going to lose weight lol.”
Former two-division champion McGregor hasn’t set foot inside the octagon since breaking his left leg in his trilogy fight with Dustin Poirier in July 2021.
Mystic Mac will throw down with former three-time Bellator 155lb king Chandler after they finish coaching TUF, although a date for their clash hasn’t been finalised.
The date currently hinges on when McGregor re-enters the United States Anti-Doping Agency’s testing pool – which he must be in for a minimum of six months before competing.
The UFC’s poster boy is relishing the fight, telling The Mirror: “I’m looking forward to it.
“I’m looking forward to it. I feel good. I feel energetic. I feel ready.
“You know, I’m throwing up my high kicks faster than I’m throwing out my jab.
“So I’m very excited to get back.”
