Conor McGregor shared a peculiar collection of pictures on his Instagram that has garnered a major reaction.
The 35-year-old Irishman made headlines in recent weeks after being forced to withdraw from a comeback fight with Michael Chandler at UFC 303.
McGregor has been out of action since breaking his leg during a July 2021 defeat to rival Dustin Poirier, with his comeback against Chandler having been scuppered by a broken toe suffered in training.

On Friday he took to Instagram to shed light on what had previously been reported as an “unspecified injury”.
However, beyond the confirmation of his injury, he also shared a collection of outlandish pictures that stunned his Instagram followers.
McGregor posted what appeared to be three paparazzi shots of him and fiancée Dee Devlin, in swimming gear, lounging on a yacht. In the first, the eccentric UFC star appears to be waving to someone in the distance while in the second he has his hands near his genital region.
Moreover, in the third picture, McGregor has one hand stretching the waistband of his swimming trunks, and the other reaching towards his genitals.

He shared the photos alongside the caption: “AH F*** IT IM GETTING MYSELF THAT BUGATTI NOW IT’S MY BIRTHDAY IN A FEW WEEKS.”.
One person on Instagram responded: “Third picture [is] absolutely insane.
A second joked: “Bro about to whip out his McC**k.”

A third said: “Wtf is that last slide??”
A fourth added: “You wild for the third slide. Didn’t need to see that fr.”
A fifth merely said: “Conor what is this.”
