Conor McGregor fires back at Twitter hater and it is absolute gold

Former two-division UFC champion Conor McGregor will return to the octagon in less than two weeks when he squares off with reigning lightweight champion Khabib Nurmagomedov for the promotions 155-pound belt in the headliner of UFC 229.

The highly anticipated lightweight title fight, which takes place October 6 live from T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, will mark Conor McGregor’s first octagon appearance since UFC 205 in November of 2016.

Tensions between the Team McGregor and Team Khabib fight camps are at an all-time high, as witnessed at Thursday’s UFC 229 press conference.

That afternoon in New York, Conor McGregor blasted “The Eagle” calling him a “little glass jaw rat” while referring to Khabib’s manager Ali Abdelaziz as a “terrorist snitch“.

The bad blood and insults continued on Friday when a Khabib Nurmagomedov fan responded to Conor McGregor’s Twitter post regarding his UFC 229 post-fight party.

A Khabib Nurmagomedov fan quickly responded to McGregor’s post with the following bold statement.
