Not too long ago, Conor McGregor was spotted enjoying his time in Ibiza. It wasn’t just him riding his €8500 (Around $9.7K) Porsche electric bike, he was also spotted enjoying quality time on the beach. Meanwhile, social media has been beaming with visuals of the Irishman’s altercation at a nightclub in Ibiza. Amid all the developments involving ‘The Notorious’, in the latest, the former UFC double champion has come forth with a brand promotion on Instagram.
The Irish mixed martial artist branded the product as “SUMMER’S BEST BEACH TOY!” in the caption. It’s a tool that even Ryan Garcia has promoted on Amazon. On top of that, Jon Jones, Mike Tyson, and iShowSpeed, are among the many who endorsed the product. It’s not really a new thing for McGregor’s followers. Last year, ‘Mystic Mac’ shared a video where he promoted the product as the perfect Christmas gift.
We’re, of course, talking about ‘Boxballen’. It’s a Polyurethane foam ball attached to a headgear with an elastic string—meant for training boxing reflexes. This time, it’s all about the limited edition green ball.

A video has been going viral where Conor McGregor can be seen hitting a man standing next to him with 2 left hooks—all while holding a drink in his hand. The aftermath? ‘The Notorious’ garnered quite a bit of criticism for his act which continued with his Boxballen promotion as well.

One fan pointed this out and wrote, “Bro flexes his porsche even during a promotion😭.” Another fan commented with hilarious disbelief, “I didn’t know Porsche made bikes😂😂.”

On the other hand, netizens were unable to accept that ‘The Notorious’ was able to burn 600 calories in just 10 minutes. To make things clear, a 160-pound man would have to run at a pace of 10 minutes a mile for an hour to burn 600 calories. One fan commented, “600 calories in 10 minutes did I just see hahahaha not a chance 😂.” Another comment went, “That will not do 600 calories 😂😂.”
But what do you think of the workout? The limited edition green ball is available for $39.99 on Amazon. Would you buy it? Let us know in the comments.
