Fans have been left concerned by the video, which some believe proves that the Irishman is far from his fighting return. Many also believe it is more evidence that McGregor is taking drugs, such as cocaine. One fan wrote:
"Cocaine's a hell of a drug."
Another fan added:
"Some gear that"
@claytronn even questioned whether or not the Irishman was a fighter anymore. They wrote:
"Are you even a fighter anymore?"
Twitter user @BJPSZN was also convinced McGregor had taken drugs:
"How much white was snorted before this took place man?"

When Conor McGregor ripped into 'booing' Brazilian crowd
Conor McGregor is widely considered as one of the best trash talkers in UFC history. There are a handful of iconic speeches and one-liners from the Irishman, but one such occasion that stands out was in 2015 during the build-up to his fight against Jose Aldo.
One of press conferences was held in Rio de Janeiro, where, understandly, the home crowd weren't too happy with McGregor. During the presser, he was asked about comments by made Aldo, but before he could respond he was hounded by a roar of boo's from the Brazilian fans.
The Irishman refused to buckle under the pressure and instead dropped one of the most iconic moments from his fighting career. He responded back:
“I own this town, I own Rio de Janeiro, I'm sitting up here with my feet on the desk. What's anyone up there gonna do about it? Not one of you is going to do anything about it. My name, the McGregor name, my family's motto is 'S Rioghal Mo Dhream' that means royal is in my blood that goes way back."
He continued:
"So for him to say that he is the king and I am the joker, if this was a different time, I would invade his favela on horseback, and would kill anyone who wasn’t fit to work. But we’re in a new time, so I’ll whoop his a** in July.”
