Take a look how MMA Fans blast Conor McGregor for partying with his UFC belt at Abu Dhabi GP

Conor McGregor was recently seen partying with his old UFC belt in a Black Forge Inn pop-up pub at the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix in the U.A.E.

In a post made to the r/ufc subreddit, fans addressed the same and criticized McGregor for pretending to be a reigning UFC world champion.

The Reddit user u/__sami__01, the individual who put forth the aforesaid post, highlighted a video of former UFC featherweight and lightweight champion McGregor celebrating with a UFC belt. In addition, the user wrote:

“Bro think he is a champion.”

One Reddit user claimed that McGregor was still living in the past, whereas another accused ‘The Notorious’ of using cocaine. Meanwhile, a fan jibed at McGregor’s recent weight gain and stated:

“Looks like Conor McGregor ate Conor McGregor.”

Another fan responded to the comment regarding McGregor’s weight gain and suggested that he’s been using banned PEDs (Performance Enhancing Drugs):

“Yes, and he washed it down with some delicious PED juice.”

Additionally, one fan claimed the 34-year-old McGregor is already experiencing a mid-life crisis, while another insinuated that ‘Mystic Mac’ has suffered a steep decline in his career. One user jibed at McGregor for not having won a fight since 2020:

“He hasn’t won a fight this decade…”

Furthermore, one fan pointed out that McGregor was celebrating with the old UFC belt rather than the newly-designed belt that’s been accorded to the UFC champions in recent years:

“It’s even the old belt.”

Moreover, one Reddit user predicted that McGregor would continue resting on his laurels well into his 60s:

“Damn. Conor gonna just end up being ‘that’ guy at the pub. 60-yrs-old sitting with his belt next to him, trying to get someone to ask about it lol.”

Conor McGregor provides a potential timeline for his UFC return

Conor McGregor’s most recent fight witnessed him suffer a gruesome leg injury and lose via first-round TKO to Dustin Poirier in their lightweight bout back in July 2021. McGregor has been focused on his recovery in the ensuing months. He’s also hinted at returning to the welterweight division next.

During a recent Q&A session on social media last month, Conor McGregor alluded to the fact that he’d been busy shooting for the sequel to the cult classic action movie ‘Road House’. Emphasizing that its filming will wrap up in a few days and that he’s looking to return to the octagon in early 2023, McGregor said:

“I’m gonna be back soon hopefully. Early 2023 I’m aiming for. You know, sometime in that first quarter. That’ll give me a good couple of months.”
