Although McGregor’s current stature is definitely huge, but most of the fans weren’t ready to compare him to the luminary Schwarzenegger. One of them took a dig at McGregor’s post by commenting, “Don’t compare yourself to a true legend.”
Some others trolled the Irishman far more brutally, as they commented, “1/4 sized Arnold figurine.” While another user felt that Conor was a “Pocket size Arnie.”
Also, it’s pertinent to note that the light in the photo was coming in from an awkward angle. Some of the fans perceived this to be a photoshopped image and went on to taunt the ‘Mystic Mac’.
A fan tried to put his ideas straight, commenting, “Looks like you’ve been photoshopped in this picture.”

Some others took a more humiliating approach. A user commented, “Photoshop – and you’re a foot smaller than Arnie and you’re juicing full time with a personal chef and trainers – not impressed.”
Yet another user iterated, “When you go on fiver *photoshop me in so my wife thinks I’m At home.”
The Reasons for the trolls
‘Mystic Mac’ has been subjected to such negativity and trolling comments from netizens previously as well. The rematch offer with Floyd ‘Money’ Mayweather was also turned down by McGregor. This might be a major factor in the backlash he has been receiving of late.
But, he doesn’t seem to care much. He has always been bold enough to put out whatever he thinks, whether it’s on the mic or on social media. So, are you a ‘Mystic Mac’ fan? What do you make of McGregor’s post? Let us know your thoughts in the comments below.
