In a recent tweet, Conor McGregor took a shot at Beneil Dariush. The lightweight contender is riding high on a seven fight win streak and is looking to re-book his fight against Islam Makhachev.
"Beneil Dardush is the biggest nobody in the company." McGregor tweeted.
The comment did not go well with Dariush's close friend Marvin Vettori, who rained down on Conor McGregor with the following tweet.
"What a bi**h @TheNotoriousMMA You couldn’t last 2 min with Beneil and that’s just a fact. You are scumbag, I hope to see you soon" Vettori responded.
As far as McGregor's recent comments goes, the Notorious is itching for a comeback. However, it remains to be seen what lies ahead for the former two-division champion. He has mentioned his interest in a potential fight with Kamaru Usman at 180 pounds, while also keeping the door open for a showdown against Charles Oliveira.
Conor McGregor is looking for a fight!
Conor McGregor vs Marvin Vettori is not a fight that we might see anytime in the UFC. Vettori competed in the middleweight division, having also fought at the light-heavyweight division. On the other hand, McGregor has gone as far as the welterweight division, having competed in the weight class thrice.
Be that as it may, the rivalry is certainly intriguing and with McGregor weighing in on Beneil Dariush, it's sure to bring some eyeballs on the lightweight contender.
