“This Is Just Wrong”- Fans Bash Conor McGregor as the Former Champ Makes Yet Another Audacious Claim on Being the P4P “King” Weeks After Missing the USADA Deadline

The anticipation continues to mount, but the road to Conor McGregor‘s comeback seems to be filled with potholes and detours. The hopes of witnessing McGregor face off against Michael Chandler, as promised by UFC president Dana White, are slowly dwindling with each passing month of inactivity.

The Ultimate Fighter 31 is in full swing, but there is no sign of McGregor stepping foot inside the octagon. To make matters worse, he has yet to enter the mandatory USADA testing pool. As the anti-doping agency requires every fighter to spend six months in the testing pool before fighting, the Irishman is not eligible to fight in any PPV in 2023.

Amidst the lingering doubts surrounding his fighting future, McGregor continues to make headlines off the battlefield on Twitter.

Conor McGregor makes a cocky claim on Twitter

In typical McGregor fashion, he took to Twitter, a platform he knows all too well, to make a bold statement. “I’m the pound-for-pound king forever,” he declared. While his tweet may have been intended to rouse excitement and assert his dominance, the reaction from fans was a mixed bag of support, skepticism, and outright disbelief.

Here are some of the fan reactions –

Meanwhile, many fans called the Irishman out.

Moreover, others brought Khabib Nurmagomedov into the conversation.

Some even named Floyd Mayweather as the rightful king.

It seems like the Notorious’ statement did not sit well with fans.

However, many others supported the former UFC champ.

Also, one fan made an intriguing point.

Another one had some positive words.

Despite the passionate responses, McGregor’s tweet failed to address the burning question on everyone’s minds: when will he make his long-awaited return to the octagon?

The Irishman bragging about his stats in an earlier tweet

Continuing his trend of bold proclamations, Conor McGregor took to Twitter to boast about his remarkable fighting prowess. This 4-day-old tweet follows a pattern of similar posts in which McGregor touts his achievements. In his latest declaration, the Irishman claimed a perfect 100% striking accuracy rate, inviting his followers to ponder whether anyone else has ever achieved such a remarkable feat.

“100% accuracy rate. How many of you have fights with this rating for yourself? 100% striking accuracy. I have multiple on my record”, the former UFC champion tweeted.
