Conor McGregor, renowned for his precision and counter-punching skills in the UFC, recently took to Twitter to highlight his achievement of maintaining a 100% accuracy rate in his strikes during multiple fights.

While the tweet received some skepticism from fans, who pointed out instances where McGregor missed, it remains intriguing to delve into McGregor’s approach to striking. Fans were also concerned that there was a high likelihood of his fight against Michael Chandler falling through.

Another wrinkle in the perception of the tweet was Conor’s recent knockout of a mascot in a stunt gone awry. Even if it was at the wrong time, McGregor was indeed very accurate. Much to the detriment of the poor mascot!

Fans still waiting for Conor to fight again amidst USADA troubles

Although fans eagerly await McGregor’s next fight, his matchup against Michael Chandler is yet to be confirmed due to USADA rulings. McGregor, who has been out of the testing pool, needs to meet the necessary requirements and be cleared for competition.

Regardless of his opponent, fans will forever remember McGregor’s incredible left hand and his uncanny ability to land it repeatedly.
