Conor McGregor has been calling out a lot of people while he’s been away from the Octagon. That hasn’t sat well with former UFC star and BMF champion Jorge Masvidal. ‘Gamebred’ shared a post on social media and rained down on him with a flurry of words for these call-outs.

It’s been over two years now that ‘The Notorious’ has been out of action. During his time away, he healed from his injuries, worked in his first Hollywood movie, and even found success in his business ventures. However, his recent call-out of Justin Gaethje has the 1st-ever BMF champion angered.

Jorge Masvidal takes aim at Conor McGregor

‘Gamebred’ was present during the UFC 291 fight week and made appearances during the pre-fight press conference and also coronated the new BMF champion, Justin Gaethje. Meanwhile, he took notice of Conor McGregor calling out a number of fighters, most recently, ‘The Highlight’. Masvidal took to Twitter and asked the former double champion to keep his thoughts to himself and even indicated that he might be on banned substances. He said, “[Conor McGregor] shut ur mouth you pissing hot midget ur not cleared to fight.”

Furthermore, Masvidal mentioned how the active fighters are constantly training while he’s been away. He added, “Talking about fighters going thru the grind and process.” ‘Gamebred’ also stated that Conor McGregor is scared to bring his name into the mix. “I bet you never say my name you scared [chicken].” Besides, even though the Irishman called out Gaethje, ‘The Highlight’ isn’t interested in a fight against him.

Why does Justin Gaethje not want to fight ‘The Notorious’?

After his remarkable knockout win over Dustin Poirier, ‘The Highlight’ appeared on the post-fight pressers at UFC 291. There, he was hit with questions surrounding McGregor’s call-out on social media. However, that did not seem to be an interesting option for the new BMF champion. Gaethje mentioned that he got turned down about six times when he approached to fight Conor McGregor.

He also stated that fighters who lose are the ones who should be fighting Conor McGregor. ‘The Highlight’ aims to compete with the best fighters in the division. Those are the kind of fights that excite him. In fact, he wants nothing to do with the Irishman, claiming that he’s on steroids.

It’s been more than three and a half years since the Irishman last had a victory, and he needs to come back with an impressive win. The fight against Michael Chandler is still on the table. However, it remains to be determined who he will face out of all the fighters he has called out or been linked to.
