Conor McGregor Continues His Assault On The UFC

Do you remember Conor McGregor? Of course you do! He's the guy who has been taking a blow torch to the UFC ever since it was announced that he was off of the main event for UFC 200.

Over the last month or so McGregor has retired, changed his mind about retiring via Facebook and now has gone to both Instagram and Twitter for another round of airing his grievances about the UFC.

See the video and what he said here (viewer discretion is advised).

The Irish fighter went on to several Tweets, you can see below, about the issue.

A lot of  were taken by McGregor. Shots at the UFC. Shots at Nate Diaz and even shots at boxing. Clearly he has something to say and doesn't care who he takes out in the process.

Now, one of two things may be in play here. Maybe McGregor has finally jumped off the deep end and lost his mind, which is completely possible.

Then again, this could also be a work with the UFC in order to get more attention for the fight if it finally does happen again at UFC 200. After all UFC 200 is something that the company wants to make ultra popular and McGregor is playing the villain role perfectly. If we finally get the fight it adds more intrigue to the show than before.

Whatever his reason is, McGregor never makes it boring for the UFC.
