Conor McGregor has advised Kelvin Gastelum to see a doctor after he posted a picture of an injury which forced him out of his upcoming fight.
Gastelum, 31, was scheduled to fight Nassourdine Imavov in the UFC's first event of 2023 this Saturday, but pulled out after losing a tooth during a training session. The injury saw Gastelum undergo surgery to have the tooth stitched back into his mouth, but McGregor was more bothered by the "hole" on the fighter's face in a picture he shared.
"Absolute scruff this thing is, that's a full on staph infection on his face," McGregor wrote whilst sharing the picture of Gastelum's injury. "A full f****ng hole omg and it's his second attempt to enter a contest like this. Wtf! Clean your mats, wash yourself. F****ng go to the doctor, scruff." It's unclear if the mark on Gastelum's face was due to a staph infection, as he only pulled out his fight due to his injured tooth.
