Chael Sonnen Criticizes Conor McGregor’s Slow, Soft Training: “Isn’t ready to fight”

Conor McGregor isn’t ready to fight. That’s the opinion of three-time UFC title challenger Chael Sonnen who had plenty to say about McGregor’s latest training footage.

On both Instagram and X, the Irish megastar shared a video clip of him hitting the heavy bag while promoting this weekend’s BKFC 65 card headlined by a women’s flyweight championship bout between defending titleholder Christine Ferea and challenger Jade-Masson Wong.

Breaking down the footage, ‘The American Gangster’ dubbed McGregor’s efforts as both “slow” and “soft” and suggested that we’ve seen the last of ‘Mystic Mac’ inside the Octagon.
