Slap jaw Johnson when I box him! @mcgregorfast”. However, the Irish fighter himself deleted the tweet later. But fans are speculating that this was due to UFC president Dana White’s interference.
More On Dana White:
Dana White has already set the record straight and quashed the speculations that Connor McGregor can dictate his fights.
Still, when asked about Connor’s recent bouts of mind games, Dana did not refute or substantiated the claim and answered, “Conor likes to f**k with everybody – you know what I mean. Especially his opponent or possible opponents…”
Thus, fans are right now speculating about the reality of the fight. As soon as the news of McGregor calling out KSI went viral, The MMA world went into a state of chaos.
While some fans are actually excited about the fight, others feel that Connor should concentrate more on the upcoming fights and not seek newer opponents.
While others feel that Connor needs a ‘pick me up,’ and this fight with KSI would provide the Irish fighter just that.
Whatever may be the reason, Connor has quite publicly called out KSI for a boxing bout. It is just a matter of time before we get a response from the internet star KSI.
