Jorge Masvidal accuses Conor McGregor of being on 'juice'

Former two-division champion Conor McGregor returns to action on June 29 in the UFC 303 main event against Michael Chandler.  It will be the first time he’s stepped foot inside the octagon since July 2021.  

McGregor suffered a broken leg in the final moments of the opening round in his trilogy fight with Dustin Poirier at UFC 264.  In his three years away from the sport, McGregor has recovered from the injury and made his motion picture debut in the remake of the 1989 classic ‘Road House.’  He also went through a dramatic body transformation.  

During most of the time outside of competition, McGregor wasn’t being tested for performance enhancing drugs.  He eventually re-entered the testing pool 27 months after breaking his leg and was specifically mentioned in the very public split between the UFC and USADA.

“We can confirm that Conor McGregor has re-entered the USADA testing pool as of Sunday, October 8, 2023. We have been clear and firm with the UFC that there should be no exception given by the UFC for McGregor to fight until he has returned two negative tests and been in the pool for at least six months. The rules also allow USADA to keep someone in the testing pool longer before competing based on their declarations upon entry in the pool and testing results,” USADA CEO Travis T. Tygart said in a statement announcing the split between the fight promotion and the anti-doping agency.

Taking all of that into account, the original ‘BMF,’ Jorge Masvidal, believes McGregor was on PEDs and could be still on them.        

“How much juice is Conor on too?  That’s another question too because that motherf***er had to wait until USADA left to come back in this b*tch and compete with all of us,” Masvidal said on Sean O’Malley’s YouTube channel.  “While all of us was training and getting tested, this motherf***er was clearly on some sh*t as we could see by the f***ing movies.”  

McGregor’s return at UFC 303 at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas has already set records.  It surpassed a $20 million gate over a month in advance, making it the highest gate in the promotion’s history.
