Conor McGregor is not happy with Donald Trump following his latest interview.
On Monday, Trump sat down with popular streamer Adin Ross to discuss MMA, politics, and the upcoming election. During the interview, Trump revealed that Khabib Nurmagomedov is his favorite UFC fighter.
“Khabib is, I guess, 29, 29 or 28-0, and then his father died and he sat, but I think he never lost, I don’t think he ever lost a round.”

McGregor was incensed upon hearing Trump praise his longtime rival, Khabib. He took to social media to express his frustration.
“I was actually wrong. Couple hundred million he is worth. Not multi B. I would have thought USA ONLY would be the mentality here and what I would want to see out of my president, personally. To pick a retired inbred fighter from Dagestan Russia who has 3 main events only to his…”
McGregor even referenced an alleged connection between a member of Khabib’s gym and a recent terrorist attack.
“Campaign ending decision. A smelly fat mountain monkey from the inbred mountains of Dagestan is your favorite UFC (AMERICAN COMPANY) fighter? Wow. Abysmal.”
The drama escalated further when McGregor’s next UFC opponent, Michael Chandler, who is apparently a Trump supporter, fired back at the Irish MMA superstar on social media.
This exchange has added another layer of intensity to the already heated rivalry between McGregor and Khabib, as well as the upcoming fight between McGregor and Chandler.
Funny enough McGregor ended up deleting all his anti Trump tweets.
