Conor McGregor seems to be the latest victim of the Twitter tirades of Henry Cejudo
Five years ago, McGregor was ruling the roost in the UFC. He was a two-division champion, undefeated as a featherweight, lost just once in the UFC, never been finished in his MMA career and whatnot.
Now, it looks like the fear he instilled in fellow fighters is slowly disappearing. Since the end of 2016, McGregor has featured in 3 fights, but has managed to win just one.
And what’s more? He suffered the first ever knockout defeat of his career, against Dustin Poirier at UFC 257.
Earlier today, McGregor had uploaded a new profile picture of himself on Twitter, dressed in a blue suit.
Since he just had his suit on and not any title belts, former UFC fighter Henry Cejudo mocked The Irishman.
He wrote:
“Look at you no belts and gold medal. Somethings money can’t buy mctapper. #bendtheknee.”
Henry Cejudo made sure he mentioned ‘money’ which has been named as the main reason behind Conor McGregor and his lack of motivation.
McGregor is now set to take on Poirier at UFC 264 in a trilogy fight. The winner will get to fight the lightweight champion Charles Oliveira.
Cejudo recently announced his engagement to girlfriend Ana Karolina on Twitter. He shared a photo of himself bending the knee and inserting the engagement ring on Karolina’s finger.
Just a day after announcing his engagement, he announced that his girlfriend will be giving birth to a baby girl, and that he will be becoming a father soon.
Cejudo is currently retired from the sport of MMA. And after getting his name removed from the USADA recently, it is pretty clear that he wouldn’t be returning for a while, in case he has a change of mind.
