UFC star Conor McGregor has attracted attention with his erratic public appearance while promoting his new action film Road House alongside Hollywood superstar Jake Gyllenhaal.

McGregor, 35, has not fought since July 2021, when he suffered a broken leg in a second consecutive Octagon loss at the hands of Dustin Poirier.

The Irishman is believed to have now regained his health and has expressed his desire to compete during International Wrestling Week in June.

However, UFC president Dana White has long remained coy about McGregor’s potential return to the sport, despite a fight with Michael Chandler being announced more than a year ago.

And now the man they call ‘Notorious’ has become a topic of conversation online after the premiere of his action movie, which took place during the South By Southwest festival in Austin, Texas, last Friday.

And fans seemed to notice McGregor’s unusual behavior, noting his seemingly altered skin color and erratic body language, supposed telltale signs.

Despite the rumors, McGregor, who made his acting debut in Road House, looked stylish in a printed jacket and a pair of matching skinny pants.

It comes as UFC boss White refused to confirm when, if at all, the sport’s first genuine global superstar will return.

“The first problem was he broke his shin and he was recovering from that,” White said. ‘The other problem is that he’s fucking rich. Conor doesn’t need money.

Earlier this week it emerged that McGregor has been the most drug tested athlete in the UFC this year.

He finally re-entered the testing pool in October and has been tested five times so far in 2024, substantially more than anyone else on the list.

His spirited display at the premiere comes months after McGregor was seen chatting animatedly with Cristiano Ronaldo at a boxing event in Saudi Arabia.

In December, the Irishman was sitting next to the football star and the pair were seen deep in conversation throughout the boxing show.

As fans pointed out, it seemed like the Irishman had a lot more to bring to the party as he dominated the chat.

In October 2023, McGregor was cleared of any criminal charges over allegations that he sexually assaulted a woman during a NBA Finals game in June of that year.

A woman alleged she met McGregor at a Miami Heat game and was leaving the arena when she claimed her security told her he was asking about her in the bathroom.

Once inside the bathroom, she claimed he forced her to perform oral sex on him and forcibly kissed her. McGregor always denied her accusations.

McGregor won his first UFC title by knocking out Jose Aldo in 13 seconds for the featherweight championship in 2015.

Less than a year later, McGregor became the first simultaneous champion in two weight classes by defeating Eddie Alvarez for the lightweight crown.

McGregor also gained recognition for his boxing fight with Floyd Mayweather and fierce MMA rivalries with Poirier, Nate Diaz and Khabib Nurmagomedov.
