Conor McGregor has been slammed by UFC fighter Kelvin Gastelum after the Dubliner mocked his latest injury, which cost him his comeback fight against Nassourdine Imavov.
Gastelum was replaced at short notice by Sean Strickland for the main event of this weekend's first UFC card of the year, suffering a gruesome facial injury in the lead-up to his first fight since August of 2021. The former middleweight title contender showed off his injuries in a series of social media posts, which drew the ire of McGregor.
The Notorious took to Instagram to send a vitriolic message towards Gastelum, who had shared a picture with a missing tooth and a gnarly cut on his face, reports The Mirror. In a story post, he wrote: "Absolute scruff this thing is. That's full on staph infection all over his f***ing face. A full f***ing hole omg and it's his second time to attempt to enter competition like this."
