The Conor McGregor and Artem Lobov feud was something UFC fans were not ready for in 2022. While the Russian Hammer was no longer with the UFC, his links to the Irishman were not a secret. After the former UFC athlete sued his teammate and friend for a 5% share in the $200 million-worth businessman’s Proper 12 Irish Whiskey deal worth $600 million, the former UFC dual weight champion took a subtle dig at him. McGregor called Artem Lobov a ‘rat’; this again led to another suit against the Irish star. Even though their battle is not inside the Octagon, the entire MMA community is waiting for the developments of their feud. And recently, Conor McGregor posted a message for his old friend, for whom he would’ve done anything according to him.
The biggest UFC star, McGregor reacted to a news clip where an update on their feud was given.
