Conor McGregor never seems to be fed up by taking digs at Khabib Nurmagomedov every chance he gets. Recently, when former US President Donald Trump named Khabib as his favorite MMA fighter, the Irishman launched a scathing attack on X. After this, Michael Chandler also attacked “The Notorious.” Determined to hit back, McGregor fired shots on Trump, Khabib and Chandler.
McGregor not happy with Trump’s comment
Popular Twitch streamer Adin Ross invited Trump for an interview that involved games and gimmicks for Ross’ audience. The 23-year-old has supported the former president on several occasions and was quite excited to have Trump on his show. Although he talked about his campaign, it was these moments that went viral. One moment that caught the attention of the fans from the stream was when Donald Trump took the Dagestani fighter’s name. When Trump was asked who his favorite fighter is, he said Khabib and also detailed the conversation with the former UFC fighter, who reportedly asked him to end the Russia-Ukraine war.
This did not please “The Notorious” at all, who has a big rivalry with Khabib Nurmagomedov. After seeing the clop, McGregor posted a series of tweets aimed at “The Eagle” and questioned Trump,“A smelly fat mountain monkey from the inbred mountains of Dagestan is your favorite UFC fighter? Woe Abysmal.”
The Notorious supported Trump after the assassination attempt
Ironic because after the assassination attempt on Donald Trump, McGregor tweeted in his support. Now that Trump has acknowledged McGregor’s rival, the “Mystic Mac” has given up his support for the former UF president.
The post was met with backlash from several MMA fans and McGregor’s potential future opponent, Michael Chandler. “Iron” referred to McGregor’s UFC 303 withdrawal, saying he is a coward. McGregor’s recent appearance at a motorcycle rally was also brought up by Chandler, who claimed South Dakota is a 100% red state and going against Trump would not be a wise idea. McGregor was quick to respond to this and despite Chandler’s numerous encounters with Trump, the Irishman claimed the former president has no idea who he is.
“He probably thinks you are a little broke begging a***wipe,” wrote McGregor.

Both men went to predict their future clash and detailed their strategy to finish each other off. The fight date is yet to be set. However, Conor McGregor has revealed that his injured leg is healing rapidly and getting back to normal. December is the potential month for McGregor’s comeback.
Meanwhile, “The Eagle” is yet to respond to McGregor’s comments. Since their UFC 299 clash, both fighters have expressed intense hatred towards each other. Their rivalry is termed one of the biggest in the history of sport.
