Conor McGregor later admitted that he was being excessively casual while training ahead of his fight with Nurmagomedov, which was also the reason why ‘The Notorious’ wasn’t perfectly in shape when he tipped the scales. In fact, he looked comparatively better at UFC 205 against Eddie Alvarez.
Although Conor McGregor’s physique at UFC 229 wasn’t lackluster, he seemingly looked bulked-up, which stole the panache that the 32-year-old usually carries while competing as a lightweight.
However, two years down the line, the former two-division champion appears to be in the best shape of his life.
After the loss to Nurmagomedov, McGregor went on to admit that he would occasionally drink alcohol in his training camp ahead of the fight. He also noted that there was a “venom in him” when he used to train.
As of now McGregor’s physique looks far more well-conditioned and shredded, thanks to his coaches.
Conor McGregor’s massive team looking after his health
Conor McGregor has a huge team helping The Notorious stay in shape. According to his coach at the Crumlin Boxing Club, Phil Sutcliffe, McGregor is assisted by an “incredible crew” around him. Most notably, Tristin Kennedy, who is McGregor’s nutritionist.
In 2018, McGregor hired Kennedy as his nutritionist, and his presence has certainly been significant. Speaking to ESPN, Kennedy revealed that he even cooks for McGregor, at times.
Apart from Kennedy, McGregor’s strength and conditioning coach, Colin Byrne, has also helped The Notorious boast an impressive physique.
