It has been over a year since Conor McGregor last graced the Octagon after his horrendous injury at UFC 274 against Dustin ‘Diamond’ Poirier. However, while the Irishman recovered from the career-threatening leg injury, he grew fond of the social media platform, Twitter.
Not did the former UFC champion liberally use the platform to take a dig at his rivals, but also offer a hilarious take on the recent development. However, this time, the Dublin-born fighter’s recent incomprehensible tweet evoked amusing reactions from the fans.

Notably, McGregor posted a photo of a dinosaur. However, the photoshopped image replaced small characteristic dinosaur feet with human feet, thereby leaving the interpretation to the fans’ imagination.
Therefore, some fans, given the recent Artem Lobov controversy, believed it to be dig on the former McGregor training partner.

The fans had a humorous take on the Irishman’s post and brought their ace pun game.
One fan commented, “Is that a Mcgregorsaurusrex???”

Someone declared, “Can’t identify that dinosaur, but more than likely is the ancestor of today’s chickens. Very apt for Tapper McNugget.”

McGregor, at 22-6, is currently on a two-loss streak, and both the losses came against Poirier.
Conor McGregor and his recent UFC record
The recent record of ‘Mystic Mac’, who has only fought 4 times after his famous UFC 205 win against Eddie Alvarez, doesn’t do justice to his stature. Besides, the fighter is 1-3 in those fights.

The 34-year-old fighter’s only win during this 6-year-long stretch came against Donald ‘Cowboy’ Cerrone at UFC 246. Since then, he went toe-to-toe with ‘Diamond’ at UFC 257 and UFC 264, losing both encounters via TKO.
However, ‘Notorious’ is targeting a comeback in the first half of 2023.
