UFC bantamweight champion Sean O’Malley’s love-hate relationship with Conor McGregor took a new turn for the worse yesterday after ‘The Notorious’ mocked him over something he’d said on his podcast.
O’Malley had been talking about how a new study he’d been sent by UFC drug-testing czar Jeff Novitzky that suggests the banned substance Ostarine can be transferred through sweat, which he now believes could be the reason he tested positive for it twice in 2018 and 2019.
McGregor wasn’t buying that excuse though as he simply posted a laughing emoji in response, which clearly got under the skin of O’Malley.
“Miss the old Conor :( you fell off bud. Still a fan tho,” O’Malley responded to McGregor’s since deleted post. “I actually don’t care you are 1-4 in your last 5 I’m stills excited to watch. Hope the toe is feeling better.”
However, he wasn’t finished there and instead returned later to put McGregor on blast with a critique of his skill-set.
“Conor isn’t in anyone GOAT talk. Entertainment yes but skills, no. Has a really good left hand. Shit Cardio. Weak Jits. Decently athletic. Mentally weak. Drug addict, needs rehab. 1-4 last 5 fights. Still fan tho. Hope toe heals up.”
In the past O’Malley has repeatedly spoken highly of McGregor and claimed to be his biggest fan, but this is not the first time he’s fallen out with him over the Ostarine issue.
