Reigning UFC welterweight champion Kamaru Usman has hit out at former UFC dual division champion, Conor McGregor, for verbally attacking him during his Q&A session over Twitter recently. ‘The Nigerian Nightmare’, who doesn’t enjoy a good relationship with the Irishman, had a fiery response for him.
In the Q&A session, a fan asked the Irishman, “What’s it like to spark people unconscious in three different weight divisions?” McGregor replied to him and wrote, “Tremendous! I love this record! I fight for the 170lb title I will spark him too.”
“That would be fastest ko in ufc title fight (13 seconds) Most knockdowns in ufc title fight (5) And then another KO in a ufc title fight. 3 title fights. 3 ko’s, 3 new records. It’s right there!”
