Conor McGregor has edited a social media post to remove a dig claiming he could kick "nicer and faster" than Leon Edwards.
McGregor hasn't fought since last July where he broke his leg in a consecutive defeat to Dustin Poirier, but he has been gradually stepping up his training as he continues his rehabilitation. The Irishman has been extremely active on social media since the defeat and has issued scathing criticisms of many UFC stars including retired fighter Khabib Nurmagomedov and his protege Islam Makhachev.
Most recently McGregor appeared to take a shot at newly-crowned UFC champion Edwards when posting a video of himself landing high kicks on Instagram, with the caption: "Here is a rendition of the UFC's 170lb champion Leon Edwards finishing left high kick from last weekends title fight that quenched him the title. I do it nicer. And faster. And I'd have done it in the first round."
