Conor McGregor rips Alexander Volkanovski, receives UFC 300 challenge

Conor McGregor had his social media fingers typing Saturday into Sunday, as has become a normal routine during UFC pay-per-view events.

During and after UFC 293, McGregor (22-6 MMA, 10-4 UFC) projected a streamline of his thoughts onto X, formerly known as Twitter. He took exception with mention on the broadcast of UFC featherweight champion Alexander Volkanovski as the promotion’s No. 1 pound-for-pound fighter. Volkanovski later responded and challenged McGregor to a fight at UFC 300, which will take place some time in 2024.

Additionally, McGregor, whether seriously or not, teased he’ll return at middleweight, praised Laura Sanko and the UFC, and a cracked joke about Sean Strickland’s backstage interview.
