The ‘Notorious’ Conor McGregor doesn’t shy away from expressing himself and his views on his probable favorite social media application, Twitter. It’s fair to say that whatever the ‘Mystic Mac’ does grasps the attention of his fans and followers; whether it is related to showing off his recently buffed-up physique or probably taking a dig at his arch-nemesis, Khabib Nurmagomedov.

Along with all the attention, McGregor‘s posts gather on the internet; they also bring in a number of suspicions and call-outs from fans and other well-known entities of the MMA world. Recently, even the famed UFC commentator, Joe Rogan, called McGregor out for being “intoxicated” while tweeting.

The recent episode of ‘The Joe Rogan Experience’ featured Ari Shaffir, Mark Normand, and Shane Gillis. Being famed comedians, the guys couldn’t help themselves from not making any quirky jokes. However, they were all eyes when the team pulled up a picture of McGregor’s ripped body.

Joe Rogan believes that Conor McGregor is intoxicated

In episode #1907 of the JRE, Ari Shaffir, amidst the conversation, recalled that somebody photoshopped him in a Conor McGregor picture. Shaffir mimicked McGregor, showing off his big biceps. This indeed created some sparks as Rogan made a snappy remark.

The 55-year-old podcaster said, “Have you seen Conor McGregor’s latest pictures? If I was USADA, I’d be like this, like when does this guy getting back on testing?”

The conversation further continued as Shane Gillis said that the ‘Notorious’ has been killing it on Twitter. Thereafter, the former Fear Factor host said that he was impressed with McGregor.

However, the deleted tweets brought in nothing but doubts. Rogan said, “He’s clearly intoxicated. Having a great time, saying some funny sh*t.”

As the team pulled up a few more of the fighter’s recent pictures, the beloved UFC commentator came up with a side-cracking comment. Rogan compared the former double champion’s physique with that of the Liver King.

He said, “Look at how jacked he is. He’s roommates with the Liver King.” 

Conor McGregor’s miracle recovery

Undeniably, this was not the first time the podcaster made comments on McGregor. In a previous episode of JRE, the podcaster mentioned that the fighter’s recovery was nothing short of a miracle. Rogan said, “No one… And I mean, no one in combat sports has had their legs snap in half and come back and been the same or better.”

Without a doubt, the ‘Mystic Mac’ overcame the gruesome injury. Additionally, he also put on significant muscle mass and has been itching to come back to the Octagon and win over the audience. However, his escape from USADA’s testing pool has generated more suspicion than ever. 

Nonetheless, the highest-paid athlete in MMA would not back down from another fight. He has ignited a few fires with the likes of Dustin Poirier, Nate Diaz , and Michael Chandler, to name a few. However, whom the warrior is going to fight remains a mystery.
