Conor McGregor is an absolute menace on Twitter. The 34-year-old had always been cheeky with his replies. ‘The Notorious’ back in 2013 took shots at Chicago Bulls’ Legend, Dennis Rodman for going to North Korea. He also once met the UFC legend, Georges St Pierre, over lunch. In their meeting, the Canadian fighter gave some words of advice to The Irishman, which he later acknowledged on his Twitter handle.

Rio Ferdinand, former England center-back, tweeted at McGregor, calling him the real deal.

Conor McGregor wants to go to North Korea

Conor McGregor looked absolutely delighted to have met an Idol. Former Manchester United player, Rio Ferdinand commented “We need @TheNotoriousMMA on the bill for the uk #UFC event!! This guy is the real deal”. Ferdinand seemed impressed by Mystic Mac’s performances back then and recognized his worth.

To which McGregor said “Thank you for the support Rio! Im just post ACL surgery. I will be back April/May 2014!! See you in Manchester though, no doubt!!” and confirmed his plans to visit Manchester to meet with the United Legend.

An Irish betting site, Paddy Power got in on the action, wanting to be best friends with the football player and The UFC fighter.

McGregor was thankful for Georges St. Pierre’s advice over lunch 

Conor McGregor packs a powerful punch. The Mystic Mac has knocked out some of the fiercest UFC fighters with his punch. Conor is an expert at sending people to sleep inside the Octagon. Another UFC legend, who knows more about the art of punching and kicking, is Georges St. Pierre. GSP is a father figure to a generation of MMA fighters. A lot of fighters watch old clips of “Rush” to improve their technique.

So, it makes sense for McGregor to drop by the big man and pay some respects. The Irishman posted on Twitter regarding their meeting and said “ Had lunch with @GeorgesStPierre today!! Grateful the champ came down to give me some much needed words of advice!!”
