Conor McGregor goes off in Twitter rant.
Conor McGregor has never been one to be shy on the mic. The brash Irishman has always loved turning things up to eleven with his trash talk. But after Justin Gaethje won the UFC interim lightweight title at UFC 249, McGregor has taken things to a whole new level.
Not only did he declare war against Justin Gaethje, Conor McGregor trashed the undisputed champ, old rival Khabib Nurmagomedov. In a rant on his Twitter, McGregor held nothing back.
The fans make the sport!
Watching the other night I was against going in without them. But it will be my fucking pleasure to display the power I possess with zero background noise for them.
Its me and Justin next as khabib is the biggest bottle fighter in the game.

Justin, there is no danger in a man that hugs legs, we all know. Try and dance around what the real threat is here all you want.
I am going to fucking butcher you.
Your teeth. I’m going to put them on a fucking necklace.
Speak on my skills as a father?
You are fucking dead.— Conor McGregor (@TheNotoriousMMA) May 11, 2020
McGregor even went as far as calling Khabib an embarrassment (pretty tame trash talk compared to previous barbs).
Khabib you absolute embarrassment. Scurrying, hiding rat as usual. As I have said many times. As has been seen many times. Through the pane of glass it was confirmed what was always known.
“No comment” lol.
An embarrassment to real fighting.— Conor McGregor (@TheNotoriousMMA) May 11, 2020
So it’s pretty clear that Conor McGregor and Khabib Nurmagomedov won’t be declaring their friendship anytime soon. The former UFC lightweight champion also made clear that he’s seeking a title in a third weight class.
After this division demolition job.
It is 170lbs.— Conor McGregor (@TheNotoriousMMA) May 11, 2020
Do you think Conor McGregor versus Justin Gaethje should be next?
