UFC fans are seriously worried after new footage of Conor McGregor has emerged online, and it doesn't look good for the Irish fighter.

It's been nearly four years since former UFC champion McGregor last stepped foot in the octagon for his trilogy fight with former rival Dustin Poirier.

The Irishman had previously been scheduled to face Michael Chandler in June last year, but a late injury led to the fight being cancelled, and McGregor's recent legal battles appear to have held back his return.

But now, new footage of McGregor has appeared online, and fans are seriously worried after seeing what he's been up to.

Just three weeks ago, McGregor was welcomed to the White House by US President Donald Trump to celebrate St Patrick's Day and discuss Irish politics.

But now, the 36-year-old appears to have gone back to his wild antics, as a video posted by online personalities The Nelk Boys shows McGregor crashing their party in Ireland.

The UFC fighter appears to be clearly intoxicated as he invited himself onto The Nelk Boys' bus before spending the night downing pints of stout, and referencing the Wolf of Wall Street.

Later, McGregor complimenting two young women before getting photos with them and then offering the group shouts of tequila.

Reacting to the footage, one fan wrote: "Yeah he is never fighting again."

Another fan agreed, adding: "Never fighting again. Too bad. He was young enough to give it a few more."

A YouTube commenter wrote: "Yeah Conor is 10000% retired. We never seeing that man fight again."

While one critical fan noted: "I don't know how an athlete with a wife and kids can live a life like this. This stops being fun in your late 20s/early 30s. I'd understand if he was a single bachelor, but this man has a lady and kids at home."

It is unknown whether UFC President Dana White has any plans to bring McGregor back anytime in the future, but former rival Chandler has confirmed that he will once again call the Irishman out should he be victorious in his fight with Paddy Pimblett this weekend.
