CONOR McGREGOR showed off his incredible physique having focussed on ‘strength training’ while recovering from his horror leg break.
The Irish superstar uploaded a shirtless photo on Twitter and looked in impeccable condition.
But fans could not help themselves from having a laugh at McGregor’s ‘bulge’.
One said: “Missing socks anyone.”
Another said: “Nice bulge.”
One added: “Trousers are a tad high bro.”
McGregor has been hitting the weights recently as he continues to recover from the broken tibia he sustained in July.
He has only just started hitting the pads again after having surgery and instead focussed on increasing his strength.

And McGregor is now so big his head trainer John Kavanagh joked he could fight at middleweight, with the pair soon to reunite again.
Kavanagh told Submission Radio: “He’s going to be back in the gym, he’s going to be back on the mats now in the next couple of weeks with me.
“He’s doing a lot of strength training at the moment. The guy’s is jacked. I think he’s coming back as a middleweight (laughs).
“But he’ll be back on the mats with me now shortly and we’ll start off with combat sports training again.”
McGregor, 33, first returned in January and was knocked out in a rematch with Dustin Porier, 32, who he had beaten in 2014.
But in the trilogy bout seven months later, he suffered further misery after breaking his tibia seconds before the end of round one.
It saw him lose by doctor stoppage and later go under the knife in Los Angeles before later returning home to Ireland.
McGregor has already hinted at a fourth fight with Poirier, who challenges for the lightweight title against champion Charles Oliveira, 32, on December 11.
But Michael Chandler, 35 and Max Holloway, 30, beaten by McGregor in 2013, are others to have called out the former two-weight champion.
