UFC star Sean O’Malley is yet to wrap his head around the recent transformation of former UFC champion Conor McGregor. The Irishman, who suffered a horrifying and career-threatening injury at UFC 264 against Dustin Poirier, is eyeing a comeback this year. While recovering from his leg injury, he also added bulk to his frame. Since then, the shredded physique of ‘Notorious’ has garnered the eyeballs of fans and fighters alike.
Likewise, his bulked-up physique has divided the fans and they have hotly debated whether the Dublin-born moves up a division to save himself from the woes of weight cutting. ‘Sugar’ is also among the few who are still making sense of the “wild” transformation McGregor recently went through. However, the bantamweight fighter is hilariously obsessed more with the head of ‘Mystic Mac’.

The 28-year-old fighter appeared on BrOMalley Show Episode 105 when he talked about McGregor’s recent Los Angeles trip. Notably, the Irish fighter, who recently concluded the shooting of The Ultimate Fighter Season 31, had a chance encounter with Floyd Mayweather Sr. Further, his beefed-up appearance became the talking point of the MMA community.
The American fighter also joined the fray and expressed his bewilderment. He drew a parallel between McGregor’s appearance at UFC 145 against Jose Aldo and his present shredded appearance.
He hilariously said, “His [Conor McGregor’s] head getting bigger by the month. He’s transformed like no one I’ve ever seen. At [UFC] 145, fighting Jose Aldo to present day, bro he’s transformed.”
Following this, the #2 ranked bantamweight wondered whether the supplements contributed to the transformation. Thus, he stated, “I can’t even imagine. It’s wild to see his face. His head looks huge. Is that from supplements? That ain’t from f*cking cheese.”
Amidst these speculations, Conor McGregor recently unveiled the teaser of his upcoming documentary, McGregor Forever.

The 22-6 record holder recently revealed a glimpse of his upcoming documentary premiering on May 17. The documentary covers the difficult phase of McGregor when he thought his MMA career was over.
A bed-ridden McGregor can be heard saying in the teaser, “I thought it was over as well… But part of me was thinking, Jesus, imagine it was taken from me like that. I would be a different person and it was a bit scary, to be honest with you.”
