apparently, Conor McGregor is back with his well-known 'trash talk' for the lightweight division (up to 70,3kg.). In a new deleted tweet, 'Notório' mocked the withdrawal of Justin gaethje in rear naked choke in front of Charles of the Bronx in the main fight of UFC 274, event held last Saturday (7).

“This (is an) absolute clown! He pretends to be asleep after he knocked too. Idiot,” wrote McGregor, in a provocation to Justin gaethje.

McGregor is one of the biggest media phenomena in UFC history. The 'Notório' is still recovering from a serious fracture in his left leg in a trilogy against Dustin poirier, in July 2021. The Irishman was even challenged by Charles of the Bronx for the vacant lightweight belt (up to 70,3kg), but was reluctant about the possibility. He should return to the Octagon in the middle of the year.

Former featherweight (up to 65,7kg) and lightweight (up to 70,3kg) champion, Conor is currently experiencing the most delicate moment of his career. He comes from three defeats in his last four fights and has a record of 22 victories and six setbacks in professional MMA.
