CONOR MCGREGOR turned heads at Wembley with his fight night fit.
The UFC star waved to fans and lapped up the applause as he arrived ringside for Anthony Joshua’s heavyweight showdown with Daniel Dubois.
McGregor rocked a pair of Versace sunglasses as he sat with his wife Dee Devlin at Saturday’s megafight.
He wore a light grey suit, pairing it alongside a colourful green and yellow shirt with an open collar.
Eagle-eyed fans were quick to notice McGregor was walking around backstage with an unlit cigar.
One fan wrote on X: “Connor McGregor strutting around with an unlit cigar is amusing me more than it should do.”

Another confused viewer said: “Is McGregor actually gonna smoke that cigar or just nurse it all night?”
While a third added: “You can’t smoke indoors, so is McGregor just sat there waving about an unlit cigar aye? Mint that.”
The Notorious soaked up the atmosphere as he entered the arena packed with 96,000 fellow fight fans.
He was spotted by TV cameras putting the cigar to his lips – but not lighting it.

Asked to give his prediction on the contest, he told DAZN: “I think it’s going to be a good, close fight.
“It could go either way. Dubois is very relaxed, but Joshua is on form.
“So I’m excited to see it unfold.”
McGregor went on to see Dubois dominate AJ, who he knocked down numerous times before finishing him in the fifth round.
The Irishman looked to be loving how the fight unfolded, with him being spotted jumping for joy when Dubois first knocked down Joshua.
McGregor return
McGregor is hoping to finalise his long-awaited return to the UFC.
The 36-year-old’s potential comeback clash with Michael Chandler collapsed last week.
UFC boss Dana White has suggested McGregor’s first UFC fight since July 2021 will happen next year.
White told the New York Post: “I was the one this year saying I don’t think he’s going to fight this year, amid all the talk and everything else.
“Conor McGregor will fight next year, early 2025.”
