Conor McGregor shares video of him on a punch machine… but fans spot something very fishy going on
CONOR McGREGOR showed off his fighting skills on a punch machine for his millions of fans around the world.
But McGregor, 36, didn’t show the final score he got after launching a powerful left hook.
The UFC legend is preparing for a highly-anticipated return to the octagon three years after his horror leg break at UFC 264 against Dustin Poirier.
The Irish bruiser hinted his comeback may not be far off as he had a go at a punch machine for his 47.4million Instagram followers.
The Notorious shared a clip of him whacking the machine from two different angles.
However, some of the MMA great’s fans quickly noticed something fishy.
One fan posted: “Didn’t even show the score.”
Another asked: “Not gonna show the score??”
A third wondered: “What score did you get?”
This fan said: “Didn’t show the score ha.”

And that one echoed: “What number did you get it to?”
McGregor was all set to fight Michael Chandler in June before breaking his left pinky toe in one of his final sparring sessions.
The knock meant the Irishman was forced to go up a shoe size, but he maintains high spirits.
McGregor told SunSport: “I’m good, very good. I’m a [shoe] size up right now.
“I’m back in running runners. I can run, I can box. These shoes [are] a little bit tricky to get into – I just went up a size.”
Inside McGregor's Notorious lifestyle
With more sides to his personality than an Octagon, Conor McGregor's rise has been an enthralling watch.
Going from UFC icon to entrepreneur and Hollywood star, the Irishman has transcended the sport he helped bring to the masses.
He has four children with fiancee Dee Devlin and the family enjoy a lavish lifestyle.
McGregor has not fought in UFC since breaking his leg in a trilogy fight with Dustin Poirier in 2021.
That has not stopped him amassing a net worth of over £150m thanks to his Proper No Twelve whiskey and fashion line.
And he is due to return to the Octagon at UFC 303 in an eagerly-awaited headline clash with Michael Chandler.
McGregor also starred alongside Jake Gyllenhaal in the Amazon Prime remake of classic movie Road House, although he is dreading his mum seeing one X-rated scene.
Notorious turned up to the premiere in a £60,000 suit that was outdone by his £460k watch.
The only thing sharper than his fashion sense is his tongue and the Dubliner has several bitter spats under his belt, including with UFC legend Khabib Nurmagomedov.
That row led to one of his biggest controversies in 2018 as he travelled 3,000 miles to confront Khabib in a vicious attack on his bus.
He pleaded guilty to assault after punching a man in a pub in 2018 and had his £150k Bentley seized by police for driving offences four years later.
Joe Rogan lashed out at McGregor in a four-letter outburst and the Irishman has also fired shots at Jake Paul, KSI and Tommy Fury.
Boxing great Floyd Mayweather also has McGregor on his enemy list after the pair clashed in a cross-sport bout in 2017.
