Conor McGregor seen partying and sharing nightclub snog month earlier than UFC return
Conor McGregor was filmed partying into the early hours as the days count down to his UFC return.
McGregor, 35, will step back into the octagon on June 29 as he faces off with Michael Chandler – almost three years after his last bout. And on Tuesday evening, McGregor was seen taking a break from his preparations for the clash.
The Irishman has insisted he is abstaining from alcohol for the duration of his training camp. And while the clips that emerged didn’t show McGregor consuming any booze, fans are still worried about how strict he is being about his preparation.

In the video, McGregor can be seen dancing in what appears to be a nightclub before he shares a smooch with his fiancée, Dee Devlin.
“Does bro know he’s got a fight next month,” one fan responded to the video on social media. While a second said: “Bro! Conor McGregor is six weeks from the Chandler fight and is just living his best life…”

“Chandler is going to win. McGregor isn’t taking this comeback fight seriously. It’s probably the most important fight of his career right now,” a third replied. And another added: “He just doing that so people bet against him like Ryan Garcia and Haney!”
Ryan Garcia’s pre-fight antics last month were the story of his clash with Devin Haney – with the American openly claiming he was drinking tequila virtually every night.
However, when fight night arrived, Garcia turned on the style and put in one of the all-time great performances in the squared circle as he outclassed the previously undefeated Haney.
Dana White has previously admitted that McGregor’s return to the sport was all about timing. He said: “There’s all kinds of things that go on behind the scenes and it’s all about timing. Chandler’s been ready but Conor hasn’t been ready.
“We talked about this in one of the press conferences recently, he had a lot of obligations that he had to deal with.
“What you don’t want him doing is accepting a fight when he’s got a tonne of obligations and he can’t train 100% for a fight, so here we are tonight.”
