Michael Chandler has claimed Conor McGregor has been drinking whiskey as a marketing tool ahead of their UFC fight.
McGregor has been out of action for nearly two years since breaking his leg but has returned to training and confirmed his return fight will take place against Chandler. A date for their UFC meeting has yet to be confirmed but it will take place as part of The Ultimate Fighter with the coaching stint of the competition having already been filmed.
With his return date yet to be confirmed, the Irishman has been attending a whole host of fighting events including Gervonta Davis' win over Ryan Garcia and BKFC 41 on Saturday night. While watching Mike Perry and Luke Rockhold do battle in the main event, the 34-year-old was seen drinking from a bottle of his Proper Twelve whiskey, which was his new flavour Irish Apple that has recently been released.
