Conor McGregor also throws punches on Instagram.
While the practice celebrities sharing the spoils their bottomless bank accounts on social media is far from a new phenomenon, Conor McGregor‘s penchant for separating the “haves from the have-nots” is in a category unto itself. As one the top fighters in the dog-eat-dog UFC circuit, McGregor doesn’t save his unflinching confidence for The Octagon – instead, his unflinching self-praise is seen in nearly every upload in his social media feed. As quick as McGregor is to build up the hours he spends in the gym and the steel-like mental fortitude he possesses, the Dublin-bred fighter is just as trigger-happy when it comes to shutting down his detractors. Cocky, brazen and more than self-assured, nothing is f-limits when it comes to McGregor dragging his opposition.
“Trash-talking] gives me energy,” says McGregor. “And it can get to them. So when I fought Mendes I would be saying into his ear, ‘You’re hitting like a bitch, you’re hitting like a woman,’ and then when I can feel he is lacking a bit energy, I stand there and say ‘You’re tired already, one minute in, you’re fcuked.’ And if it’s true, it hurts.”
From Floyd Mayweather to 50 Cent, no one is safe from McGregor’s public attacks and his unwavering desire to make himself seem untouchable. For the ultimate roundup McGregor’s most savage Instagram uploads, check out the gallery below.
Packing More Than A Punch
