Conor McGregor fans claim to see more than they bargained for in UFC star's latest post

Conor McGregor has escaped to the sun as he looks ahead to a UFC return later in the year.

The Notorious jetted off to the Bahamas earlier this week with Dee Devlin and bumped into Justin Bieber shortly after arriving at a luxury resort.

McGregor shared a number of photos on social media of himself cycling and working out, but some of his followers claimed to have seen a bit more than they had expected.

One commented: "IS THAT A NUTSACK?!?!?"

Another said: "Coulda done without the ol sack ol chap."

Someone else suggested that the shorts were a bit too small for the former two-weight champion.

They posted: "Forgot your swim trunks at home, had to wear your sons?"

McGregor also wowed fans with his new physique after posting photos online.

The former two-weight UFC world champion has been bulking up during recovery from his broken leg suffered against Dustin Poirier last year, and looks massive compared to his usual weight.

He is said to be weighing as much as 190lb, and fans noted that he was looking "massive" in photos where he ran into pop star Bieber in the Caribbean.

WWE star Sheamus noted that the Irishman was now "Wrestlemania sized", while other fans added that he has a "proper bulk on".

One fan joked: "Mate, the size of you - f***ing hell," while another said that he looked like the villain Bane from the Batman comics.

Meanwhile, Jake Paul has again reiterated his desire to fight McGregor.

"I don't give a s*** about Conor," Paul told Mirror Fighting at a press conference on Monday for the Katie Taylor vs Amanda Serrano fight which he and Eddie Hearn are co-promoting.

"I just want to fight him and smack him in the head - in that sense I hope that he can win some fights so that we can actually fight.

"But the guy is a grown-a** man, he needs to figure out his life; it seems to be falling apart from what I can tell."

"Obviously, everything's through a lens, we don't know what he's going through actually," Paul added, before saying that McGregor should "for sure" stop drinking.

"That's clearly one of his many problems - he needs to get in the gym and drink calcium because his bones are f***ing breaking."
