Ex-Champion Conor McGregor labels UFC rival Justin Gaethje a ‘Handicap’ in deleted Twitter storm

As usual for the MMA superstar, Conor McGregor has once again spouted off with a series of tweets he later decided to delete. This time, ‘The Notorious’ aimed his tweets at long-time rival Justin Gaethje.

The spark to fuel the flames turned out to be an old clip from season 26 of The Ultimate Fighter. Season 26 featured Justin Gaethje as a coach. The old clip depicts ‘The Human Highlight Reel’ telling now UFC veteran Gillian Robertson that she needed to focus on her striking more because relying on her Jiu-Jitsu prowess alone wouldn’t cut it.
