Conor McGregor may be going through way too many controversies than one could handle, but the headstrong former UFC double champion is trying his best to live his life to the fullest. At least, that’s what the fans were led to believe as the Irishman shared a video of him enjoying time in his Lamborghini yacht despite not being booked for a single comeback bout.

Taking to his Instagram, Conor McGregor reshared a video of him in his yacht as he bumps into former bosses, the Fertitta brothers. In the clip, McGregor is in his yacht as he aims the camera toward the yachts of the UFC’s former owners as he says, “Look who I see. Over here, that’s Lorenzo Fertitta’s yacht, Lonian. And next with there is Uncle Frank’s yacht. Uncle Frank Fertitta’s yacht. So the gang is here in town! Yeah, just getting a little bit of work in, lads! I’ll be over shortly.”

However, it seems like McGregor wasn’t actually having fun but simply reminiscing about it. The Irishman wasn’t actually on a ride on his $4 million Lamborghini yacht; instead, it was an old video from 2023. To make the situation more fun, even back then the internet was abuzz with rumors of a comeback fight for ‘The Notorious,’ but as we all know, things never materialized.

However, many fight fans are still waiting for the Irishman to return. After all, the 36-year-old still remains one of the biggest names in the UFC. For the world’s largest MMA organization, the fighter became a phenomenon in the sport by winning the featherweight and lightweight belts. So, when the fans saw his video on a yacht, they couldn’t help but share some interesting reactions.

In this sport, since 2008, ‘The Notorious’ has a record of 22 victories, 20 of them via finishes (19 by knockout and one by submission) and six losses. So, many fans believed that Conor McGregor has earned his riches, and it is upon him to decide whether he wishes to fight or just enjoy the life of luxury for which he put his body on the line for years. Showing some support to the Irishman, several fans shared, “Can we blame him though? The man made his way and now enjoys it… fair play 🫡.” “Conor’s the man. I don’t care what anyone says,” and “He’s living the dream.”

While one fan called him a GTA character, “At this point he’s a GTA character,” another fan believed that the delay is only making him irrelevant, “He’s surely not relevant anymore.” But what do you think?
