McGregor recently posted several photos on social media in which ‘The Notorious’ claims to have gained up to 190 pounds while sidelined with a potentially career-threatening injury.

And, judging by the photos, he’s not lying – McGregor looks huge.

“190 lbs of granite,” the former champion posted in a follow-up Tweet.
