Well, how much that Conor McGregor fella weighs, you ask? It ain’t a straightforward thing, you see. That boy’s weight, it’s like a changin’ wind, never stays put for too long.
Officially, when he’s fightin’ in them lightweight matches, he’s ’bout 155 pounds. That’s what they write down on the papers, you know, the official stuff. But that ain’t the whole story, not by a long shot. These fighters, they gotta make weight, so they sweat and starve themselves down to that number. It ain’t natural, I tell ya.
Now, when he ain’t fightin’, that Conor, he’s likely a whole lot heavier. They say he walks around at over 180 pounds. Yep, that’s a good chunk more than that 155, ain’t it? He’s a strong fella, gotta eat to keep that strength up, you know. Can’t be walkin’ around all skinny and weak.
- When he started in that UFC thing back in 2013, he was even lighter. ‘Bout 145 pounds, they say. That’s featherweight, they called it. Took him a while to get to the top at that weight, but he did it. Knocked out that Jose Aldo fella real quick.
- But Conor, he’s always lookin’ for more, that one. He went up in weight, to that 155 pounds, and kept on fightin’. He’s made a lot of money doin’ it too, they say. Not a billionaire though, not yet anyway.
So, to answer your question straight, it depends when you’re askin’. Fightin’ weight? 155 pounds, give or take. Regular walkin’ around weight? More like 180 pounds, maybe even more now. He’s a big fella, strong as an ox.
They also talk about his “reach,” whatever that means. Says it’s 74 somethin’. I guess that’s how long his arms are. Long arms are good for punchin’, I reckon. And they say he’s a southpaw, which means he leads with his left, I think. Kinda like me when I’m swingin’ a broom, haha!
It’s all a bit complicated, this fightin’ business. All these weights and reaches and stances. But one thing’s for sure, Conor McGregor, he’s a tough fella, no matter how much he weighs. He puts on a good show, that’s for certain.
And listen, don’t go believin’ everything you read on them internet thingies. Folks make up all sorts of stuff. But from what I hear, and what seems right, that boy’s weight is like I said. 155 when fightin’, and more than 180 when he’s just livin’ his life.
It’s like weighin’ a pig before market and after it’s been eatin’ good for a while, you know? Things change, weights change. That’s just how it is.
Anyways, that’s the best I can tell ya about how much that Conor McGregor weighs. It ain’t gospel, mind you, but it’s as close as an old woman like me can figure.
