VIDEO: Conor McGregor at Friday’s weigh-ins compared to him before the Jose Aldo fight

Worlds apart

What a difference 23 lbs makes.

Conor McGregor looked like an entirely different human being when he took to the scales on Friday night.

‘The Notorious’ was huge after a camp in which he had to cut little to no weight ahead of his first bout at welterweight

The last time we saw McGregor on a weighing scales was back in December, before his featherweight title unification bout with Jose Aldo.

McGregor weighed 145 lbs on the nose on December 10 and looked tremendously drawn out.

McGregor came in almost two stone heavier this weekend, stepping onto the scales while patting his belly at a thick 168 lbs.

We’re guessing that it would be pretty easy for McGregor to get comfortable at 170.
