Conor McGregor’s latest tweet-and-delete threat mention’s Khabib’s mother, wife and children

As Conor McGregor heals from a broken leg suffered at the hands (or elbow, rather) of Dustin Poirier, the Irishman continues to utilize social media to remain in the news and pester fighters who have beaten him in the cage.

His latest barb, which has since been deleted, was directed at bitter rival Khabib Nurmagomedov, who appeared on Mike Tyson’s podcast to discuss McGregor’s previous tweets—including one that referenced his father’s passing from COVID-19.

Nurmagomedov said that the tweet showed “how dirty” McGregor was.

Predictably, McGregor responded to that message. And, just like he did with Poirier, he brought Nurmagomedov’s family into the mix.
