UFC fans are convinced Conor McGregor is 'washed' after he uploaded a new training video on social media.

McGregor hasn't fought in the UFC since his TKO defeat (doctor stoppage) to Dustin Poirier back in July 2021.

He was scheduled to return to the famed Octagon last summer when he was matched against Michael Chandler at UFC 303.

But McGregor pulled out of their Las Vegas showdown due to a toe injury.

The 36-year-old has since been linked with a monstrous fight in 2025, with a stunning report claiming he has a 'fight on the table'.

Ahead of returning to action, he shared a video of himself showing off his boxing skills.

However, McGregor's training clip failed to impress people on social media as they made their feelings known.

Fight fans reckon the former double UFC champion is 'washed' as they referenced MMA legend Ronda Rousey and Jake Paul, with some defending the Irishman's handwork.


One X user wrote: "He’s not coming back any time soon."

A second claimed: "Shades of Ronda Rousey. I don’t see Conor wining another fight."

A third argued: "He’s doing a power cross and undercut what’s washed about this lmao just strictly boxing. He is deffo washed tho but from this clip specifically nah."

A fourth questioned: "I don't understand why he throws these looping punches."

A fifth added: "Jake Paul is finishing this man let’s be real."

Another said: "How does one know a fighter is washed by a 12 sec bag work clip."

McGregor, who lost a civil court case to a woman who accused him of rape last month, hasn't competed in over three years.

He hasn't won a UFC fight since January 2020 when he beat Donald Cerrone in just 40 seconds.

But the 'Notorious' could make his comeback next year.
