The recent inclusion into the featherweight title bout controversy between UFC President Dana White and Henry Cejudo is Conor McGregor.

‘Mystic Mac’ chimed into the controversy after UFC President Dana White clarified that ‘Triple C’ is going nowhere near the featherweight title. Soon enough, the Irishman logged into his Twitter account and aimed at Cejudo with a ‘Little Fart’ claim.

Now, Cejudo and his Egyptian-American manager, Ali Abdelaziz, have fired right back at the former double champion.

In a recent tweet, Ali called McGregor a chicken and disgraced him even further, “@TheNotoriousMMA It’s not even qualify to shine your shoes He have a chicken heart”

Later, the former Olympic Gold medalist joined his manager to add fuel to the fire with a reply. “He wouldn’t even finish shining my size 5 1/2 shoe because he would gas out,” Cejudo tweeted.

These verbal attacks between the former double champions of the UFC come after UFC Vegas 46. After the head honcho, Dana White gave a strict no to Henry Cejudo’s demand for a title shot against Alexander Volkanovski.

Cejudo decided to try his luck, as he compared himself to Conor McGregor and former UFC professional Paige VanZant. However, his demands fell on deaf ears. But it made McGregor take notice and then all hell went loose.
