Conor
McGregor will end a five-year hiatus from the Octagon on July
11 at UFC 329
in Las Vegas, and his rumored kit for the bout has been mocked by
fans.
McGregor has been keeping fans updated in recent weeks, regularly
posting training clips online. In a recent post, he was seen
sporting an eye-catching pair of shorts that featured $100 U.S.
bills. While custom shorts in the UFC have become more common
lately, the Irishman’s green money-inspired kit has drawn the ire
of fans.

Comeback
McGregor’s green shorts did not impress mixed martial arts fans.
The former two-division champion took to Instagram to share a
series of photos of his training sessions, and his post’s comments
section was swarmed by users mocking him.
“Tacky,” one user wrote. “Trash,” another user remarked. Yet
another user added, “It looks like he got those in a multi-pack of
boxer shorts that were on a clearance sale.”
While a lot of comments poked fun at McGregor, some were
complimentary, with one user writing, “The custom shorts are fire,
bro,” while another chimed in, “Amazing Conor.”
While there’s no confirmation yet regarding whether “The Notorious”
will actually don the polarizing shorts in his next bout, they are
available for sale on Venum’s website.
McGregor, five years after losing to Dustin
Poirier at
UFC 264, returns against Max
Holloway at UFC
329, a rematch of their 2013 bout, which the former won via
decision. Holloway is coming off his BMF title loss to Charles
Oliveira, so the victor at the upcoming numbered event will see
a return to the win column either way.
