Former two-division UFC champion Conor McGregor is now locked in for his massive octagon debut. That being said, a new rumor is now floating around that the Ireland native may not have entered his fight camp for the bout in tip top shape.
Conor McGregor has not competed inside the octagon since back in 2016. The fighter’s most recent performance was inside the squared circle against Floyd Mayweather Jr. exactly one year and a day ago.
Now “Notorious” is set to throw down with undefeated UFC lightweight champion Khabib Nurmagomedov in the main event of UFC 229’s live pay-per-view on Oct. 6. Now Middle Easy is reporting that there is a new rumor that Conor McGregor has gotten out of shape during his long time away from the octagon.
Check out Middle Easy’s original report of the matter down below.
“Smaller story but we’re sure you’re following it. There has been rumors that Conor McGregor has walked into his UFC 229 somewhat out of shape. The year long layoff from any kind of fight camp plus his new lifestyle may contribute to Mac losing some muscle mass off his frame.”
