Conor McGregor has been having the time of his life on TUF 31. A lot of the footage that has come out since the show’s premiere has seen the Irishman spend time with the contestants coaching them and joking around as well. One of the more recent clips saw him showing off his endurance to the contestants on an exercise bike. However, fans were not pleased with the Irishman and had some harsh comments about him.

McGregor kick-started his return to the UFC with a second stint on the acclaimed series ‘The Ultimate Fighter.’ Season 31 of the show has him coaching opposite prospective opponent Michael Chandler. The show aired on May 30 and two of the twelve episodes are already out. Currently, Team McGregor is 0-2 down against Team Chandler after losing a lightweight and a bantamweight bout. Meanwhile, McGregor showing off his skills while his students are losing did not sit well with the fans.
