Two of the best trash talkers in the UFC, Conor McGregor and Chael Sonnen have got into a heated Twitter exchange. Conor McGregor has been very busy on social media in the past couple of weeks. He is targeting fighters in and out of his weight class and is trying to set up future fights. But at this moment he is recovering from the injury he suffered in his last fight against Dustin Poirier at UFC 264 where Conor broke his foot. Recently when Max Holloway fought Yair Rodriguez at UFC Fight Night 197, Conor posted a video of him squaring up and stalking Max Holloway on TV.
After seeing the video posted by Conor McGregor, Chael Sonnen took some shots at Conor McGregor which Conor didn’t take well and the duo got into a heated conflict on Twitter.

“Conor is on the verge of being a little rich weirdo,” Sonnen said. “It’s the last thing I wanted for him, but if you mark out for your own gimmick to this extent – he’s posting things and then he’s deleting them – I’ve got to give the troll effort 100 percent. As a former troll myself, I get it. If there’s a UFC that you didn’t step foot at and you didn’t throw a single punch and you can steal a headline on ESPN+, you’re doing something well. But in all fairness, Conor is not going to step in there with Max anymore than he was going to step in with the guy last week, the week before that, or whoever he pulls out of his hat next week. He’s got to heal himself.”
“There’s talk of Dustin Poirier, who’s already smashed him twice. In all fairness, Conor is still a big draw but he’s really working against himself. He is being a weirdo. Is this what he wants as his identity – a guy that’s walking around with his shirt off, screaming at his television set? Come on. When you were 22 years old, that was one thing, but as a husband and a father, you’re a little bit of a dork.”
