After ‘Inbred’ Remark to Hasbulla, Conor McGregor Called Fan ‘Prune Head’ in a Deleted Tweet; Gave Immediate Justification

Conor McGregor is in the news once again. The fighter has been away from the Octagon but manages to create headlines pretty often. As per new reports, the UFC star recently lashed out at a cancer survivor and called him a ‘prune head’.

The fighter lost his cool after Sam Sallick, the cancer survivor expressed his opinion that McGregor was ‘rapidly ageing’. The 34-year-old MMA fighter did not like this and took to Twitter to hit back. As per ‘DailyMail‘, the fighter wrote, “Lord almighty. Say less bro. You look like a baby grandpa. @yungsallick you little Prune head.”

However, he deleted his tweet just 20 minutes later. He wrote another tweet, “Despite contrary belief, I never fire the first shot in verbal warfare or disrespect. I end it with bombs that obliterate the original comments or remarks but never fire first.”

In typical McGregor fashion, he deleted it as well.

‘DailyMail’ also reported that many of his followers did not like him taking digs at a college student. However, many fans also annoyed Sallick and went on to call him names.

In addition to this, many people also congratulated Sallick, as they felt he successfully ‘rattled’ ‘The Notorious’.

Conor McGregor: Who else has he been feuding with?

It is not just Sallick he has had an issue with. He recently also has an online argument with Hasbulla Magomedov, former UFC champion Khabib Nurmagomedov’s friend. The fighter called him ‘inbred’ which didn’t sit well with many.

Thus, Dana White, who has a good relationship with Hasbulla sent McGregor a light-hearted warning.

This isn’t too surprising since Hasbulla and ‘Mystic Mac’ have gone back and forth before; especially since Nurmagomedov and McGregor’s heated rivalry and UFC 229 bout back in 2018.

In addition to this, Hasbulla has been in news recently for his UFC contract. As reported by ‘The Mirror‘, he has received a five-year deal with the MMA promotion and a huge amount on the table. More details about the contract are awaited.
