UFC star Conor McGregor issued a warning to Ryan Garcia, who recently tested positive for banned substances, and challenged him and UFC bantamweight champion Sean O’Malley to a spar, while Garcia responded by challenging McGregor to a bare-knuckle boxing bout.
Conor McGregor’s got a message for Ryan Garcia. The UFC superstar, like the rest of us fight fans, got wind of Garcia’s positive drug test. This came after Garcia’s shocking victory over Devin Haney on April 20 in Brooklyn. McGregor, never one to hold back, took to Twitter to share his thoughts. He didn’t stop there, though. He also dragged current UFC bantamweight champ Sean O’Malley into the mix.
McGregor’s tweet, now deleted, read: “Cheated the weight and was juiced, lifetime ban.” He continued, “Sad to see, sad to say. Sad and a bit sick. Don’t come near me if I see you ever Ryan Garcia. I am actually disgusted. This ostarine it reminds me of Sean O’Malley — was on that as well. I don’t like this, I’ll bust yous both up. Do yous want to spar? I will set flights right now for you both todo a full-on spar each. Hotel, Black Forge Inn, the lot. Let’s spar O’Malley and Garcia, two little ostarine heads. I’ll ride you both like yous are ostriches. [What the f*ck] is up? What do you think you are at?
He didn’t stop there. “If I was Haney’s dad, you’re dead no matter what for doing that. Crazy. What the f*ck happened to you, you little fool. Get your head together [because I’m] going to smash it in with elbows if you don’t. Fair play Devin, well done. Your performance has just become even more heroic. Bravo. Get your head together [Garcia] or kill yourself.”
Garcia, for his part, denies any wrongdoing. He’s confident he’ll shut up the critics soon. No penalty has been handed down to Garcia yet. Nor has a decision been made about his majority decision win over Haney.
“King Ryan” didn’t take long to hit back on Twitter. He warned McGregor that there will be a showdown if they ever meet in person. “If I see Connor McGregor, I’m going to break your weak-ass ankle,” Garcia wrote. “You ran from being tested [because] you were on [steroids]. Road House or ROIDRAGE FUDGE CONNOR CACA BRAIN.”
He didn’t stop there. He added, “It’s war on the McGregors,” and then suggested a bare-knuckle boxing bout with McGregor.
Bare knuckle. Let’s fucking go CONNOR. Winner gets your trash ass whiskey brand – RYAN GARCIA (@RyanGarcia) May 3, 2024
Meanwhile, McGregor’s got other stuff on his plate. “The Notorious” is gearing up for his UFC comeback. He’s set to face Michael Chandler in the main event of UFC 303 on June 29 in Las Vegas. And he’s also just become a part owner of BKFC, as he announced during last Saturday’s KnuckleMania 4 broadcast.
