Conor McGregor may not be fighting inside the Octagon, but he’s enjoying the life out of it. He recently went on a ride on his $4 million Lamborghini Yacht. He surprisingly bumped into the former owners of the UFC – the Fertitta brothers. Fans have shared their reactions to this incident and McGregor’s lavish lifestyle on social media.
There has been a lot of speculation surrounding the return of ‘The Notorious’ to the Octagon. There are chances he might fight for the BMF title against Justin Gaethje, instead of his slated fight against Michael Chandler. He even recently hinted at a rematch against Floyd Mayweather. However, there are no concrete plans for the former double champion. He seems to be enjoying his life to the fullest.

Conor McGregor encountered the ex-owners of UFC, Frank and Lorenzo Fertitta, whilst savoring his sojourn on his yacht. Zuffa LLC, a company founded by them, had formerly owned the UFC before WME-IMG purchased it for $4 billion in 2016. It is widely believed that the combination of Frank and Lorenzo Fertitta with Dana White was responsible for bringing MMA to the mainstream limelight.
‘The Notorious’ seemed ecstatic after bumping into the UFC’s former owners. He said, “Over here is Lorenzo Fertitta… and next to that is Uncle Frank’s yacht, Uncle Frank Fertitta’s yacht.” He further yelled out to the Fertitta brothers, claiming that he’ll join them shortly. “The gang is here in town. Just getting a bit of work in lads! I’ll be over shortly,” said McGregor. Even Dana White couldn’t stop but notice this incident and shared a story on his Instagram handle. Let us take a look at what the fans had to say about this surprising encounter.

Meanwhile, some fans could not seem to grasp the fact that ‘The Notorious’ could keep up with this lifestyle. Moreover, they compared him to the Fertitta brothers. The fans claimed that McGregor comes nowhere close to the former UFC owners in terms of success and attitude.
- No way you can keep up this lifestyle. You don’t have any investments bringing in this type of revenue. Proper 12 ain’t making that much.
- Difference is the Fertitas aren’t acting like idiots high on cocaine. Conor is trash and no amount of money will change that

And while, we are on the subject of fame, let us look at what makes the Lamborghini yacht so famous.
What is so special about the Lamborghini 63 yacht?
Italian automobile giant Automobili Lamborghini and The Italian Sea Group companies collaborated to create the limited-edition super luxury yacht series called ‘Technomar for Lamborghini 63’ or simply Lamborghini 63. The first of these limited-edition vessels aimed at its uber-wealthy clientele hit US waters in 2022. The 63 in the name is in reference to Lamborghini’s founding year of 1963, the yacht’s length, and the number of editions of this vessel that will ever get built. The vessel has been built using carbon fiber which is typically used in Lamborghini cars and boasts two MAN V12-2000HP engines which give it a cruising muscle of 40 knots and a max speed of 60 knots. As mentioned earlier, Conor McGregor spent 4 million to get one out of these 63 beauties. So, it seems all is good on the personal front for ‘The Notorious,’ but when does he get back inside the Octagon?
