Conor McGregor seems to invite chaos to his day-to-day life more often than not. Most of it is via his controversial tweets. McGregor is infamous for going off on Twitter and passing some eyebrow-raising remarks. The Dubliner recently made a deplorable comment in response to a rather random tweet that purportedly involved Dustin Poirier‘s wife, Jolie Poirier. Following Poirier’s leg injury, McGregor and Poirier spat insults on Twitter, and ‘The Notorious’ appears to be active there still. And fans are not having it at all.

The fans have commonly found McGregor‘s comments rather entertaining, but this particular tweet ticked them off.
Conor McGregor fires out a vile tweet
Conor McGregor‘s now-deleted tweet that said, “Heal up soon scruffy knickers”, in response to Dustin Poirier‘s staph infection news, received a response from a Twitter user. “I think we might need to check the security footage cuz I bet Connie did this to the gym mats” the Twitter user stated in the tweet that included a certain GIF. This caught McGregor‘s attention, and he responded to it with a rather foul comment, which didn’t sit well with the fans.

‘The Notorious’ might have still stuck to the chain of argument with ‘The Diamond’ and supposedly directed this tweet to the latter’s wife, Jolie Poirier. He wrote, “his chicks knickers” in response to a tweet that featured a GIF of a dog moving in a certain way.
Normally, McGregor‘s tweets elicit reactions from the fans due to his sense of humor and other one-liners, but this time, his statement incensed the fans.
Check out how fans reacted to this contentious tweet by McGregor:
A fan seemed to be embarrassed by his icon:
It has to be so embarrassing being a fan of @TheNotoriousMMA and having to defend this clown. once an icon, today a total clown show

Another fan stated that McGregor isn’t focused anymore:
Lol… nice job @sandipantsmma You’ve shown what the world already knew – the boy’s head isn’t in the game.
— Beignet Mitch (@BeignetMitch) December 6, 2022
One fan urged him to return to his heyday and recalled his illustrious times:
You’re better than this mate come on. Get off the drugs and give us one last run of fighting , people WANT to like you but you’re making it hard. Once a charming individual but post 2017 you’ve changed
— DJ Ben (@DJBen_) December 7, 2022
A strong accusation came in from a fan:
Get off the cocaine mate it'll do you wonders 😃😂

And ‘The Notorious’ was labeled as a hater by a fan:
Your just hater kid grow a pair
— Michael Willford (@Sixers76___) December 6, 2022
McGregor lost a fan there for going too far:
As a former fan: you are literally getting disgusting to look at. Everything you´re saying is just disrespectful and humiliating towards others. You are crossing so many lines, it is not even for entertainment purposes anymore. You should be ashamed.
— Giuseppe Marti (@GiuseppeMarti4) December 7, 2022
It appears that McGregor has brought on mayhem upon himself with just three words.
