Conor McGregor Savages Former Khabib Nurmagomedov Rival in an Unforeseen Beef: “Talk to the Foot”

The second best place that Conor McGregor loves to fight is on Twitter. Social media platforms seem like the juiciest location for the Irishman to speak his mind, no matter what state of mind he is in. The Irishman never fails to entertain his followers and haters alike with love for comebacks and replies on ego hits.

Over the years on his Twitter, McGregor has been going through back and forths against his opponents from the octagon. He also has a penchant to take on and bad-mouth other fighters with whom he possibly would never even get into the octagon. But that being said, the man loves a good online fight.

The latest one that he seems to be having a conflict with, and one that he seems to be enjoying thoroughly, is against UFC lightweight contender Al Iaquinta. After Iaquinta took a shot at the Irishman, the latter clapped back at the Italian descent fighter on Twitter.

“To me Ricky bandejas will always be the guy that knocked out that cocky Bellator mcgregor. What a legend.” Tweeted Iaquinta, to which McGregor replied, “Talk to the foot cos the face ain’t listenin.” and posted a picture of Iaquinta getting kicked in the face by Donald Cerrone.

Who is Al Iaquinta?

With a perfect amateur record of 14-0, Al Iaquinta is an MMA fighter of Italian descent that is signed to the UFC. Making his entry into the UFC through TUF, Al Iaquinta slowly began making a name for himself in the lightweight division of the UFC.

In a turn of events with two fighters having to pull out of the Lightweight championship, Al Iaquinta was matched up against Khabib Nurmagomedov for a 5 round main bout. He lost the fight via a unanimous decision.
