Former undisputed UFC lightweight and featherweight champion, Conor McGregor has hit out at undisputed boxing world champion, Canelo Alvarez tonight on his social media – after recently calling for a fight with the Mexican gold holder.
McGregor, 34, a former undisputed lightweight and featherweight titleholder under the banner of the UFC, has been sidelined from active competition since July 2021, fracturing his left tibia and fibula en route to a first round doctor’s stoppage TKO loss against Dustin Poirier.
As for Canelo, the undisputed WBC, WBA, WBO, and IBF super middleweight champion, made a successful homecoming earlier this month in a Mexico showdown with British contender, John Ryder turning in a criticized, albeit one-sided unanimous decision victory – improving to 59-2-2 as a professional.
Receiving a rather bizarre and heated call out from Dublin striker, McGregor last week ahead of a super lightweight fight between Chantelle Cameron, and Katie Taylor – Canelo was described as “waning” by the Crumlin native off the back of his home soil judging victory.
