“He Literally Looks Like a Another Person” – Fans Sound Off as “Unrecognisable” Conor McGregor Arrives in Las Vegas for TUF 31

Coach Conor McGregor has touched down in Las Vegas, ready to take on Michael Chandler in the upcoming 31st season of ‘The Ultimate Fighter’. He has previously coached in TUF back in 2015 against Urijah Faber following his interim title win over Chad Mendes at UFC 189. He is back to wear the coach hat after a long hiatus, and this has excited the UFC fans to the core.

After a long hiatus, the Irishman is back and ready to take on the world again. But things have not started smoothly for ‘The Notorious’ in Las Vegas. Upon his arrival, many fans failed to recognize him, as he looked like an entirely different person. Some even went so far as to connect the dots and suggest that this new look might be due to his alleged steroid use. While fans are still excited to see the ‘Mystic Mac’ return to the game, his look has caught all the attention and has become the talk of the town even before the action kicks off.

Fans fail to recognize Conor McGregor

After a long wait and many speculations, ‘The Notorious’ Conor McGregor is finally returning to the UFC, wearing a coach hat initially and leading a pack of aspiring MMA fighters to help them earn a UFC contract.

Fans all over the world are extremely stoked to watch the Irishman finally get back in action. But as he arrived in Las Vegas, his very first sight had got the fans talking, and not necessarily in the way one would expect.

There was a section of fans who expressed their excitement about his return:

“This is going to be a great season”

“King of entertainment is back!”

“Return of the Mac”

Many others simply sounded off on his appearance:

UFC fighter Derek Brunson is certain that the man is not Conor McGregor:

“That the Conor stunt double , change my mind” 

And the fans have the same thoughts as Brunson:

“Something looks horribly off”

“Bro looks unrecognisable”

“He literally looks like a another person”

While many believe this is because of the alleged steroid use:

“Does steroid make your head bigger?”

“His head doubled in size on that hgh”

“I don’t see how he’s ever making 155 again”

Even though McGregor’s entrance aroused some questions among fans, anticipation for him to face Michael Chandler in the octagon following ‘The Ultimate Fighter’ is at an all-time high.
