Conor McGregor fans concerned as "weird" UFC star throws punches behind bar

Fans have labelled UFC legend Conor McGregor as "incredibly weird" for shadowboxing behind a bar.

McGregor is currently preparing for his pencilled-in return against Michael Chandler at UFC 296 on December 16 in Las Vegas. The fight is yet to be officially announced, but McGregor and Chandler have seemingly confirmed the date with cryptic tweets in recent days. Fans are convinced McGregor's UFC return will be delayed until next year because of a lack of training footage and several videos on his social media accounts.

The former two-weight world champion recently visited a new Irish bar, Bartley Dunnes, in New York City to pour the first ever pint of his Forged Irish Stout in the US. A clip of McGregor shadowboxing behind the bar left fans baffled as one user wrote: "Conor is acting incredibly weird recently but let’s be honest, he no longer needs to fight. He’s made his money."
