CONOR MCGREGOR's dramatic body transformation during his octagon hiatus has left UFC star Sean O'Malley absolutely stunned.

During a recent episode of his Bro O'Malley podcast, 'Suga' said: "Bro is his head getting bigger by the month?

UFC and USADA policy require returning fighters to be in the pool for a minimum of six months before they're eligible to compete.
The UFC brass could, however, could grant their poster boy an exemption to the requirement – the same one they gave Brock Lesnar in the summer of 2016.
McGregor launched a stinging attack on USADA when they re-affirmed his requirement to be in the pool for six months in March.
