CONOR MCGREGOR left one of his sparring partners a bloody mess just days after having a wild party at his pub.

The Irishman is deep in training camp for his long-awaited UFC return next month, which will be his first outing in nearly three years.

But he seemingly took a break from the labours of fight camp last week to enjoy a night out at his Black Forge Inn pub.

Video footage of the event – in which McGregor busted a move on the dancefloor – showed it was a rowdy one.

That sparked concerns from fight fans, despite there being no physical evidence that the 35-year-old broke his self-imposed booze ban.

McGregor’s party antics, however, didn’t seem to affect him in his next sparring session – in which he drew blood from one of his sparring partners.

The Dubliner shared a series of snaps of himself with one of his training partner’s blood on his gloves and headgear with his 48 million Instagram followers on Monday.

His accompanying caption read: “Fighting, competing, it’s in my blood. #FightingIrish.”

The former two-weight division champion’s legion of fans were quick to comment, with one saying: “Proper blood.”

Another said: “Irish beast.”

And another said: “History in the making.”

One remarked: “Can’t wait for the greatest comeback in the history of sports.”

Another chimed in: “The Mac was just gaming the other night. He’s dialled in. All war tactics.”

McGregor, 35, will be welcomed back to the octagon by fellow fan favourite Michael Chandler on June 29 in the main event of UFC 303 in Las Vegas.

The fight will be his first since he shattered his left tibia and fibula in his trilogy fight with Dustin Poirier in July 2021.

And he plans to pick up his first win in FOUR-AND-A-HALF YEARS with a head-kick KO of the former three-time Bellator lightweight champion Chandler.

In a recent interview with James Corden, he said: “I am Terminator now.

“I have a titanium rod that goes into the knee and down to the bone, right down to my ankle.

“It’s unbreakable.

“I wish for and I will work on landing this kick – with this steel bar in my leg – against an opponent and getting them out of there.”
