Conor McGregor lashes out at Artem Lobov
Lately, Conor McGregor and Artem Lobov have been radiating an immense magnitude of heat. Although a former teammate and friend to McGregor, Lobov sued him in 2021 with claims that he had a significant role in the launch of McGregor’s Proper No. Twelve Irish whiskey.
However, McGregor revealed that a second defamation lawsuit has been filed against him and his father. The deed made the former champion furious and even challenged Lobov to a fight.
As expected, the ‘Notorious’ did not take it well. The former double champion unleashed hell on Twitter with back-to-back tweets against the ‘Russian Hammer’. He recently posted a picture of his old friend, Lobov, and Damian Zwolinski at Morskie Oko. He wrote, “Go on the lads! Two little fannys on a rock.”
Immediately after, he tweeted, “My da 63 year of age getting lawyer letters off artem omg. You told my da and me that you keep rodents and reptiles as pets. Rats and snakes are your thing you said, you relate to them you said to us. Do you not remember? You absolute jackass.”
The tweets have since been deleted.
Fans commenting “rat” on posts
Once the best of friends, McGregor and Lobov have now turned into enemies. Utterly disturbed by the act, the ‘Notorious’ left a voice message for Lobov. He challenged Lobov to a fight at the SBG Concorde late at night.
Furthermore, he said, “Bro we had a chat about f**king our love for reptiles and our love for rats. Do you not remember that f**king chat mate, no? You silly c***.”
