McGregor is set to return to the cage tonight, but four years ago, the Irishman left fans stunned after uploading a rather suspicious post while holidaying on his luxury yacht

Conor McGregor sent fans into meltdown by sharing what appeared to be a video of him receiving oral sex on his yacht back in 2022.

The former two-division UFC champion was enjoying some time away from the cage and had been holidaying across the globe on his luxury yacht with wife Dee Devlin. It came a year after he broke his leg in a first round defeat to Dustin Poirier at UFC 264. At that time, McGregor had yet to return to full training, despite having resumed kicking with his injured leg.

Throughout his time away, McGregor continued to keep fans in the loop with regular pictures and videos of his lavish lifestyle including partying on the Spanish island of Ibiza. Most recently, McGregor yesterday shared both a video and image that fans immediately seized upon and suggested he was enjoying a sexual act on his yacht.

McGregor uploaded an image of himself leaning back with the lower half of his body cropped out, with the caption: "If you're getting it, get it top floor of the triple deck."

A deleted video also surfaced on his story and was captured by fans which appeared to briefly show his wife Devlin's head before panning to the stunning sea view from the top deck of his boat, reports the Irish Mirror.

Fans were swift to spot the posts and offered their theories in the comments section, with one fan writing: " Did Conor McGregor really just post himself getting head on IG story?" One fan agreed: "He also posted a picture with no pants, with a caption suggesting it. It's pretty clear what he was doing." Another fan reckons choosing the track Rehab (Winter In Paris) by RandB artist Brent Faiyaz was also intentional, commenting: "The song choice... I feel like this was meant for somebody to see."

Other supporters were less persuaded it was anything significant, posting: "I really think he's rubbing his wife's hair. People love to over react lmao." Another fan concurred: "I honestly think his wife is just sleeping on his lap." One UFC enthusiast concluded on his comeback: "Yeah he's not coming back is he? Another replied: I would most definitely not either that view is amazing."

The 37-year-old was due to make a return to action two years ago against Michael Chandler, but was forced to withdraw from the contest after breaking his toe in training. Many have since been sceptical as to whether McGregor will fight again. However, the Dublin scrapper shocked many after announcing his comeback earlier this year.

McGregor will take on ex-featherweight champion Max Holloway in a welterweight showdown at UFC 329 in Las Vegas on Saturday night - 13 years on from their initial encounter. On that night, the Irishman would go on to get his hand raised on points.
