Conor McGregor showed off his massive muscles and jaw-dropping physique in a terrifying clip uploaded to his social media channels.

The UFC star is currently in the Dominican Republic filming a remake of 1980s classic, Road House, alongside Hollywood A-lister Jake Gyllenhaal who will play a former UFC fighter.

While it is currently not known who McGregor will play in his acting debut, it has been confirmed it will be an original character and the charismatic Irishman will not be playing himself.

Despite enduring 12-hour days on the movie set, McGregor has made sure to keep up the ruthless workout routine that has helped him get beefed up in recent months.

After his latest gym session, the 34-year-old flaunted his bulky physique which he previously boasted is “190lbs of granite” but this new footage suggests he’s even bigger than that at this point.

In an initial clip on Instagram, he donned a pair of black joggers but nothing else as he flexed and screamed at the camera.

He later posted the clip on Twitter with the caption: “The most power Twitter’s ever seen.”

McGregor hasn’t fought since suffering a catastrophic leg injury at UFC 264. The former dual-weight UFC champion fractured his tibia and fibula in July 2021 and has been sidelined ever since.

It was hoped he would return this year, but a member of his team recently revealed that McGregor will not compete in 2022 and will instead make his eagerly anticipated comeback next year.

After making his name at 145lbs, ‘Mystic Mac’ has been piling on the pounds in recent years, especially during his time out injured.

However, this is not an athlete eating his feelings, McGregor is purposefully bulking up in order to try and make history by winning a third UFC belt at welterweight.

The MMA icon has previously stated that when he does return it will be at 170lbs and he set his sights on an immediate title shot against Kamaru Usman who until recently dominated the division.

Leon Edwards shocked the world last month by knocking out ‘The Nigerian Nightmare’ and the pair are set to rematch for the title in the first quarter of 2023.

That means a shot at the belt is off the table for McGregor, although it was never really an option due to the fact that he has lost back-to-back fights, has just one win since 2016, and is unranked in the weight class.
