But, on Twitter, the Irishman always brings his A-game. ‘The Notorious’ has a solid reputation to post hilarious tweets that are loved by many and hated by even more. Recently, the Dubliner responded to a fan who had genuine doubt. The fan demanded to know why UFC journalist Ariel Helwani tried to grill his friend, Dillon Danis on ‘The MMA Hour’.

Fans can’t believe that Dillon Danis still gets to hang out with The Notorious

The former dual champion admitted he was still friends with Danis on his Twitter handle. Danis faces KSI for his professional boxing debut on 13th Jan 2023. But he won’t be alone, as one of the biggest names in the UFC might stand behind him.

Further, the UFC world couldn’t stomach the fact that McGregor still considered Danis to be a close friend.

The UFC star doesn’t share the same attachment towards his former friend because Lobov sued McGregor over his share in ‘Proper No.12’, the Irish Whiskey brand co-founded by McGregor.

The Irishman has so much hate for Lobov that he doesn’t address him by his real name anymore. Instead, he uses cheeky nicknames like ‘Rartem’ or ‘Ratrem’. The Irishman also sang a jingle to bestow this nickname on his disloyal friend.

From McGregor’s tweet, it was clear he was surprised that Ariel Helwani grilled Danis so much and suspected Lobov to be the reason behind it. What do you think?
