Conor McGregor boasts of bulking up so much he goes "sideways through doors"

Conor McGregor has boasted he has bulked up so much in the last year-and-a-half that he will have to walk "sideways through doors".

The legendary former two-weight UFC champion broke his leg during a trilogy fight with Dustin Poirier in July of last year, but never stopped training his upper body, and has packed on the pounds despite not gaining much fat in the last year. He insists he will be returning to fighting soon, and appears to be heading for welterweight after bulking up considerably.

And during a late-night tweet spree that included recommending featherweight champion Alexander Volkanovski also move up the divisions, McGregor shared a photo of his huge gains. He captioned the picture, seemingly taken in a bathroom mirror, by saying "sideways thru doors".
