Conor McGregor has all the time been a troublesome nut to crack, however following UFC 291, maybe he cracked his nut? Sure, dangerous pun, however after Justin Gaethje landed a head-kick KO on Dustin Gaethje to seize the BMF title, McGregor took goal.
Instantly leaping onto Twitter (or I suppose it is now X?), McGregor laid into Gaethje’s declare to being the Baddest Motherf**ker. He even went as far as to say “f**okay (Michael) Chandler,” whom he’s purported to be preventing after their stint as coaches on The Final Fighter Season 31.
There was no trace of McGregor rejoining the USADA drug testing pool that he’s required to do earlier than preventing. He has made no dedication to preventing Chandler and even returning to the Octagon. His actions have all been hyperbolic empty gestures that he has but to comply with up on.
In the meantime, McGregor has misplaced three of his final 4 bouts, together with back-to-back losses to Poirier. His lone victory previously 5 years was a fast end of Donald “Cowboy” Cerrone in January 2020. His most up-to-date UFC bout was three years in the past in July 2021.
That hasn’t stopped him from driving on the Twitter prepare…
