UFC champion Conor McGregor appeared to flout Aintree's dress code on Saturday as he strolled into the racing ground with his shirt completely unbuttoned.

The MMA fighter flashed his tattooed torso to spectators and press after climbing out of a £200,000 white Rolls Royce.

While there is no official dress code, Aintree's website stresses that "smart is preferable and is often adopted".

McGregor touched down in Liverpool on a private jet at around midday Saturday before making quite the entrance at Aintree only hours later.

The Notorious landed at John Lennon Airport shortly after midday and headed off to watch the 2017 Grand National.

One fan could be heard shouting, 'Here comes the king' as McGregor stepped out onto the tarmac, reports the Liverpool Echo.

The Irishman appeared to be joined by his entourage, who left the airport in another two white Rolls Royces.

The current UFC Lightweight champion is expected to spend a day at the races before partying it up at Mansion Nightclub on Temple Street.

The cagefighter hasn't been in action since November - when he beat Eddie Alvarez in the second round via technical knockout.

McGregor does not have any fights currently booked in, either. However, talk has intensified surrounding a superfight between him and retired boxer Floyd Mayweather.
