Another chimed in: "I can't understand if the punch was actually so weak that he hit 1 or he broke the machine."
One fight fan said: "The machine is broken."
McGregor's low-scoring punch wasn't his only crack at setting the top score.
Earlier in the evening, he bagged a score of 860 with a powerful left hook.
McGregor, 35, is on course to make his long-awaited octagon return next year after finally submitting his paperwork to re-enter the USADA testing pool.
