Conor McGregor hailed his "super heavyweight" frame as he heads to America to continue his UFC comeback plan.
The former two-weight champion has been out of action since breaking his leg in his third fight with Dustin Poirier last summer. He is not expected to return to the cage before August having only recently resumed boxing sparring.
McGregor has cast doubt on whether he will return to the lightweight division having bulked up to 190lb. He has also repeatedly called out welterweight champion Kamaru Usman but looks highly unlikely to be handed a title shot on his return.
And as he travelled to the States, McGregor tweeted: "Weighing it at super heavy weight bread, the double champ does what the fook he wants, mystic mac attack, I love the USA. See you soon USA."
McGregor has taken another break from training in recent days to pick up his £2.6million custom Lamborghini yacht. He has also been enjoying some down time with his family, but also found the time to party while in Monaco.
No date has been set for McGregor's return to the cage but he could be tempted to return to lightweight after champion Charles Oliveira was stripped of his belt. The Brazilian failed to make weight for tonight's title defence against Justin Gaethje, meaning the belt will be vacant if he beats his American rival.
Oliveira would then fight for the belt against a leading challenger, which McGregor would argue is himself, despite not winning at lightweight since 2016. The winner of tonight's clash between Michael Chandler and Tony Ferguson will also angle for a shot at the belt.

McGregor could also face long-time rival Nate Diaz at welterweight in an attempt to boost his title credentials, but Diaz is expected to take on rising star Khamzat Chimaev in the final fight of his UFC contract.
He has also ruled out facing McGregor for a third time having traded victories with the 33-year-old in 2016. "I been trying to fight everybody and no go, what’s the hold up UFC? I’m not fighting Conor he sucks. I’ll fight some one quit slow rolling me please, thanks," Diaz tweeted recently.
