Conor McGregor always liked to challenge himself, but the latest challenge he has taken up may not go down well with the fans. Apparently, the Irishman briefly turned his attention to UFC legend Mark Coleman. To those unaware, Coleman is currently preparing to make a return to combat sports with a celebrity boxing match. Meanwhile, McGregor’s return to action will be against Michael Chandler. Irrespective of that fact, the 34-year-old managed to raise some eyebrows with a deleted tweet targeting Coleman.
‘The Notorious’ has a reputation for his social media shenanigans. The Irishman has notoriously beefed with several personalities on Twitter. He is also prone to making outlandish claims via his socials. Only this time, it was related to Coleman.

In a recently surfaced video, we see Coleman shadowboxing. Age had evidently taken a toll on the first-ever UFC heavyweight champion’s body. But the competitive spirit in him was very much alive and burning. Coleman had been consistently taking an effort to maintain sobriety and improve his physical health. While he has been successful at both, many fans believe that getting back to fighting is a bad idea for ‘The Hammer.’
‘Bloody Elbow’ shared the clip with the announcement of his comeback for a celebrity boxing match. However, fans in the comment section were adamant against it, having seen the short clip of his shadowboxing.
