If there is anything that hits harder than Conor McGregor’s left hook, it’s his trash-talk. One such Conor McGregor phrase, “Who the f**k is that guy?” will forever be etched in the minds of fight fans. The recipient of that unforgettable line was Jeremy Stephens, an MMA veteran who has now entered the world of boxing. On the other hand, Conor McGregor has been away from the octagon since his UFC 264 injury and is still far away from his return. Amidst all intriguing questions surrounding the Irishman, his former opponent made a bold call-out to him recently.

This took place after McGregor failed to enter USADA’s testing pool before the deadline for his Michael Chandler fight.

Jeremy Stephens wants to box with old rival Conor McGregor

While many are talking about the Irishman’s current up-in-the-air return situation, his rival Jeremy Stephens also did not miss this chance. Stephens recently posted a tweet targeting ‘The Notorious’ and calling him out. In his tweet, he cheekily alluded to McGregor’s foray into boxing, suggesting that the sport might be more forgiving when it comes to certain rules and regulations. Moreover, he even took a playful jab at McGregor’s recent issues with USADA.

“(Conor) told you, come cross over to boxing for a bit, I’m sure they let things slide more than (USADA) be right up your alley give the fans what they want.”

After McGregor did not step into the USADA testing pool in time, it is possible that his fight against Chandler may not take place.
