Conor McGregor & Henry Cejudo have continued taking jabs at one another since Cejudos loss to Aljamain Sterling in UFC 288 on Saturday night.
Mcgregor shared his thoughts on the main event on Saturday night with a video posted (and shared by Xcellent MMA) to his social media and making these comments on Henrys’ performance:
“Easiest money I’ve ever made. Not a scratch on Aljo! Congrats Funkmaster! Good little fighter is Henry but give it a rest with these agendas all the time. The guy is sub 20 fights in his career. His little feints an all ahaha omg please teach me mastermind lol. Done the splits like a stripper and got dumped on his ass he did hahaha oh lord it’s tasty.”
The rivalry goes back a few years and likely stems from the animosity between Conor and Henrys’ friend Khabib Nurmagomedov.
Conor McGregor Wrestling Questioned by Cejudo
Henry continued the Twitter back and forth when he posted:
“Hey Conor McGregor, your grappling is so you bad you can’t even submit a clean urine sample. I’ve seen more intimidating men on a can of Bud Light.”
Prior to the above tweet, ‘Triple C’ had commented on McGregor’s now-deleted Twitter post (see above) with the following remarks at the UFC 288 post-fight press conference.
“Conor McGregor don’t got s**t on my resume, that’s all I’ve got to say,” Cejudo said and then continued. “He’s been stopped after a three-year layoff. What I was able to do and compete and hearing the boos from the crowd after they announced the winner, that says a lot to me. But there’s still levels and I still know that I can get better too. It’s ok, bring the hate and maybe it will motivate me. I’m not one of these guys—Yeah, I’m a little pissed because I hate losing, but I love it. I love it. So, thank you, Conor.”
