Conor McGregor, also known as ‘The Notorious,’ is no stranger to flashy displays of wealth and extravagance. Moreover, he has over 46 million Instagram followers. The Irish mixed martial artist and former UFC champion is known for his lavish lifestyle and larger-than-life persona. However, McGregor’s latest social media posts have caused quite a stir among his fans and followers. On Wednesday, McGregor took to Instagram to show off his newly purchased $70,000 Rolex. But it wasn’t just the extravagant timepiece that caught people’s attention – it was also the way McGregor chose to showcase it.

In one post, the former UFC champion was choking his neck with the watch, a move that many found distasteful and tasteless. Many felt that the display of wealth and extravagance was inappropriate and out of touch. This was especially since his recent performance and results inside the octagon weren’t up to the mark.

McGregor wears a new Rolex Day-Date ‘Green’ in 18k yellow gold, with diamonds

The $70,000 Rolex Day-Date ‘Green’ 228348RBR watch is made of 18k yellow gold. In addition, it is set with brilliant-cut diamonds and features a green dial with yellow gold Roman numerals as hour markers.

The Day-Date is the first calendar wristwatch to indicate the day of the week spelled out in full in an arc-shaped window at 12 o’clock. Although the watch markets at $70,000, it retails at $55,000.

For many, McGregor’s display of wealth and extravagance was seen as a poor choice, especially given his massive platform and influence. They argue that he could have used his platform to spread a message of hope and positivity, rather than flaunting his material possessions.

Regardless of how one feels about McGregor’s actions, it’s clear that his posts about his new Rolex and the image of him choking his neck with it have sparked a lot of controversy and concern. The situation has ignited a debate about the role of wealth and success in society, and McGregor’s lavish lifestyle will likely continue to be a topic of discussion in the days and weeks to come.
