Former two-weight champion, Conor McGregor has hit out at welterweight contender and fellow UFC staple, Gilbert Burns – referring to the Brazilian as “the fat lesbian” in a surprising onslaught on social media earlier today.
McGregor, a former undisputed lightweight and featherweight champion under the banner of the UFC, has been sidelined from the Octagon since he fractured his left tibia and fibula in a first round doctor’s stoppage TKO loss to former interim champion, Dustin Poirier back in 2021.
As for Burns, the one-time welterweight title challenger and former lightweight contender has yet to book his return to action, since dropping a unanimous decision loss to Belal Muhammad back in May – suffering a shoulder injury during the first round of the potential title eliminator in New Jersey.
