The former double champion has been accused of drinking too much by the fans before. Some of his social media shenanigans have also left fans wondering in the past. Therefore, they did not take kindly to McGregor publicly flaunting his drinking.

One fan wondered why McGregor was downing a bottle of whiskey if he was in fight camp.

Some other fans were suggesting that things could turn out bad if McGregor gets drunk. The Irishman has a penchant for getting into trouble outside the octagon.

Quite a lot of the fans felt that McGregor vs Chandler would not happen this year as planned, considering this was how McGregor carried himself publicly.
