After two defeats in the UFC by Dustin Poirier, Conor McGregor is known for leading a lifestyle of grandeur. He was named the top – earning sports personality for 2021 by Forbes. He’s already ramping up his comeback plans, aiming to fight at 170 pounds later this year after fully recovering from his fractured leg.
McGregor may find it difficult to prolong his UFC career, according to Tyson. During an interview with Israel Adesanya on his HotBoxin’ podcast, Tyson stated, “It’s hard to stay ready with that lifestyle. Have you ever had a $40million fight, then talk to me later.”
“When you got a $40 million fight and the week after you have that money, and they are telling you that you have to fight in six weeks it becomes harder to get out of bed. You end up saying ‘ how much money is it? Give me $5million more’.”
McGregor’s lifestyle has been a topic of discussion throughout his career, especially after his current resurgence, in which he has only won one of his previous four fights. The Irishman has been vacationing in a number of high-end vacation spots such as Dubai, Miami, Rome, and Los Angeles.
He’s also been dancing and having a good time since opening his own tavern in Dublin. Conor McGregor assured followers he would quit drinking alcohol, but he released multiple videos on social media, including a meandering social media message, that alarmed fans.
After returning to boxing training, McGregor has reiterated his pledge to supporters to quit drinking and is arranging his comeback opponent. Even though his lifestyle has been questioned, McGregor has displayed an incredible body throughout his travels overseas, ballooning to 190 pounds.
