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?
