UFC star Conor McGregor has reignited his long-standing feud with the Nurmagomedov family in a recent social media exchange. McGregor has never been shy about his disdain for the Nurmagomedovs, particularly after his comprehensive defeat against Khabib Nurmagomedov in the Octagon.
Despite Khabib's retirement, the rivalry continues, with McGregor now taking aim at Umar Nurmagomedov, who is making waves as a top bantamweight in the UFC. After Umar expressed frustration over the lack of opponents willing to fight him, McGregor didn't hold back in his response.
In a tweet, McGregor called out Umar's brother for a doping violation, alleging a pattern of steroid use within the Nurmagomedov family. McGregor's tweet read,
"Your younger brother popped for steroids. That’s four now out of your family caught on steroids while fighting. This guy here, he got popped for steroids fighting. Is he your brother?"
McGregor's future in MMA remains uncertain, but many fans hope for a comeback, with rumors suggesting a potential matchup against Michael Chandler later this year.
The social media spat has once again thrust McGregor and the Nurmagomedov family into the spotlight, adding fuel to the fiery rivalry that has defined much of McGregor's career in the UFC.
