Conor McGregor's 'hand' goes viral and everyone says the same thing

Conor McGregor has gone viral after having his chest stroked live on air.

The Irish MMA superstar was in attendance as Jon Jones became Heavyweight Champion at UFC 285 on Saturday evening.

At one stage, cameras panned around the crowd and some of the biggest celebrities in attendance. McGregor was there with his 'Roadhouse' co-star Jake Gyllenhaal having filmed scenes for his new movie over the course of the event.

But as the cameras panned to the two men in the crowd, a hilarious scene unfolded as a hand with flaming red painted nails that clearly wasn't McGregor's started stroking his chest.

The hand belongs to Dee Devlin, McGregor's longtime partner and fiancé, but from the original camera footage plenty believed that it looked as though the hand belongs to McGregor himself.

Here's a collection of some of the funniest tweets:

"The hand lmao"

"I thought Conor painted his nails for a second"

"Thought that was Conor's hand for a sec"

"Brooo I thought this was Conor’s hand"

"Why has Conor painted his nails?"

"McGregor wearing red nail varnish wtf"

"Bruh, at first I thought McGregor was feeling himself."

As the picture below clearly shows, it was in fact Dee Devlin that was with McGregor.

The Notorious even took to Twitter after the event to comment on the video.

McGregor's Roadhouse movie will premiere later this year.

The Dubliner will also make his return to the Octagon against Michael Chandler in a few months time.
