Volkanovski responds to McGregor’s callout: ‘Come back down to featherweight’

Conor McGregor completely dismissed Alexander Volkanovski’s sensational win over Brian Ortega at UFC 266, claiming that he would kick the latter’s head like a rugby ball and make a fool of him inside the octagon.

“I’d kick this volovski [Volkanovski’s] head off like it was a rugby ball I was kicking. 5’4! And full of muscle! Hahahahaha little fart he is. Not even a little fart. A shart haahahahaj jack***,” McGregor posted in a since-deleted Tweet following the fight.

Volkanovski, who beat Ortega to retain his featherweight title in one of the greatest title fights in UFC history, responded to ‘The Notorious’ at the UFC 266 post-fight press conference.
