Conor McGregor has slammed fellow two-weight world champion Henry Cejudo as a "fat novice" after the retired fighter critiqued his recent boxing footage.
The Irishman has returned to the ring at the Crumlin Boxing Club in Dublin over the past few weeks to continue his recovery from a broken leg, and has posted footage of his pad work to social media. But he came under fierce criticism from some fans, as well as fighters such as Cejudo who mocked his form.
Both Cejudo and McGregor are former two-division world champions, with the Irishman winning gold at featherweight and lightweight while the American won at flyweight and bantamweight. And they have had a running rivalry in recent weeks as their back-and-forth social media messages continue.
