Conor McGregor shows off Tupac inspired Rolex watch as he adds to his ever-growing collection

Conor McGregor has added another expensive Rolex watch to his ever-growing collection.

The Notorious posted photos and videos of his new watch on social media over the weekend.

The price of the Rolex Oyster Perpetual Day-Date is available upon request, meaning it is anyone's guess how much it actually costs, but it certainly wouldn't be cheap.

McGregor posted on Instagram: "New watch, @rolex.

"A retro styled day date of the modern era. Brand new! You won’t see this green often, nor the diamonds wrapped around the barrel in this manner.

"A timeless, classic, vintage styled ,modern Rolex watch. Like something you would have seen on Tupac in the 90s. Incredible!"

The 36mm yellow gold watch features a green ombré dial with diamond markers and diamonds set into the bezel and centre links of the presidential bracelet.

The post comes less than a month after the UFC star added two watches with a combined worth of €2.5million to his collection.

McGregor has been enjoying some downtime with his family in Dubai following his defeat to Dustin Poirier.

McGregor's defeat to American Poirier was his second in his last three fights in the UFC - but it was still another huge payday for the Crumlin man.

And he has been relaxing ever since the fight with his young family. When the fighter might return to the octagon remains to be seen, with a third fight with Poirier thought to be on the cards.

But UFC commentator Joe Rogan has urged Poirier to move on from McGregor and search for "great fights" in the lightweight division.

Rogan insists there are far more interesting matchups to be made in a lightweight division bursting with quality, including a rematch with former interim champion Justin Gaethje.

Recalling Poirier's 2018 victory over Gaethje, the UFC commentator told his The Joe Rogan Experience podcast : "There's great fights for Dustin, right?

"There's the rematch with Justin Gaethje, which was a much closer fight. And that was when Justin Gaethje was fighting in a different way.

"Justin Gaethje was fighting much more reckless. There's the [Michael] Chandler fight, which they're trying to push for right away.

"It's tough to make that argument when you've got Charles Oliveira, who I think is maybe the most talented guy in the division. Charles Oliveira might beat them all."
