Conor McGregor started off his UFC career as a 145-pound fighter. After becoming a champion in the featherweight division, ‘The Notorious’ swiftly transcended to lightweight. Moreover, he also made sporadic appearances in the 170 pounds division, although fans perceived him to be undersized there. 

While welterweight seemed like the threshold for the Irishman, his recent hiatus from the sport has seen McGregor grow the biggest and the bulkiest fans have ever seen him. Moreover, he even recently came out on Twitter and delivered an answer to what his speculated weight might be.

Many might think that the ‘Mystic Mac’ would cap at 200 lbs considering his frame and his natural weight. However, reality is way beyond the imagination. Of late, the UFC megastar came out and revealed his actual weight, and it was enough to blow anyone’s mind. 

Conor McGregor revealed his exact weight 

In a recent tweet, where a fan speculated McGregor’s weight to be somewhere between 200-220lbs, the Dubliner decided to take matters into his own hands and replied by stating his exact weight. The former UFC double champ revealed that his current weight was 265lbs. He tweeted, “265 in the bank. #superheavy”.

Moreover, for those who might not know, 265lbs is also the UFC heavyweight division’s weight limit. Therefore, in other words, it’s safe to say that McGregor is just a pound shy of crossing the weight limit at the heaviest weight class in the UFC.
