Conor McGregor has mocked Kamaru Usman for being knocked out by Leon Edwards in their UFC 278 title fight.
Welterweight champion Usman was on his way to making the sixth defence of his title against Edwards in their rematch, being up on the judges' scorecards heading into the final round of the fight. Usman was untroubled in the fifth round and was cruising his way to a decision win, but Edwards landed a Hail Mary head kick that rendered the champion unconscious as he suffered his first UFC loss.
McGregor has unsurprisingly weighed in on the pound-for-pound No.1's defeat. The Irishman wrote "Hahahahahhhahajaaj" just moments after Usman was knocked out and continued to mock him in a series of tweets as the dust settled. "Mi no lika the boi no sleep dem man hahahaha t*** got t****ed," he wrote. McGregor also added: "Usman gonna come out saying he from Pluto after that smack hahah Marty green pants from Pluto."
