Irish MMA icon Conor McGregor recently announced his eagerly awaited return to the Octagon. This will mark his comeback since the unfortunate leg injury suffered during the bout against Dustin Poirier in July 2021.
Despite enduring a broken tibia in that defeat, McGregor has demonstrated a complete recovery. Now, he is finally ready to face TUF rival coach Michael Chandler in June.
In addition to preparing for his upcoming match, McGregor has been actively engaging in promotional activities for the highly anticipated movie ‘Road House.’ In the movie, he shares the screen with Hollywood star Jake Gyllenhaal.
The two has been doing promotional tours together for the movie. However, a recent interview with Sports Illustrated featuring McGregor and Gyllenhaal has sparked significant apprehension among his admirers.
A viral video circulating on social media depicted McGregor exhibiting signs of distress. Observers noted his apparent struggle to articulate thoughts fluently, accompanied by noticeable perspiration. This was in stark contrast with the composed demeanor of actor Jake Gyllenhaal.
Particularly striking was McGregor’s persistent shoulder shrugging throughout the discussion, prompting speculation of involuntary muscular contractions. Concerns were raised regarding the toll his fast-paced lifestyle may be taking on his well-being.
Responses flooded in from concerned fans, with one individual expressing: “Can’t be the only one genuinely concerned by this.”
Another echoed similar sentiments, tweeting: “That was disturbing to watch.”
Further comments underscored the gravity of the situation. A comment read: “This is not normal nor good.”
Another said: “Proper sad to see that state of this man.”
As the online discourse unfolded, calls for McGregor to seek assistance and prioritize self-care emerged.
One comment read: “This was weird af. Dudes like a malfunctioning android.”
Despite the concerning turn of events, McGregor’s anticipated showdown with Chandler remains on the horizon. Meanwhile, his latest cinematic venture ‘Road House’ premiered on Prime Video on March 21st.
