After Dana White Rejected His Other Endeavors, Conor McGregor Reminded to Not “Lower” Himself to Fight Influencers Like KSI by Fans

The aftermath of the exhilarating DAZN boxing event at London’s O2 Arena has led to an unexpected outcome. Following former heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua’s knockout victory over Robert Helenius in the seventh round, the spotlight shifted to the intriguing world of post-fight theatrics.

Amid the electric atmosphere of the event, UFC star Conor McGregor managed to grab attention with his antics. In a surprising move, ‘Notorious’s gaze fixed upon KSI, an internet sensation and co-founder of the ‘Sidemen’ group, who was among the crowd. When asked about the possibility of starring in yet another boxing match, the Irishman retorted with an X-rated rant – calling out the YouTuber-turned-boxer.

But this unexpected callout was only the beginning. Just a couple of hours ago, the Irishman took to his Instagram account, unleashing yet another jab at the YouTuber. Although the post gained rapid viral traction, it was swiftly removed by McGregor himself. The post’s caption encapsulated his intentions: “10 rounds, handy. Slap jaw Johnson when I box him! @mcgregorfast.”
