UFC champion Conor McGregor is “using steroids” before issuing the Irishman a brutal warning.McGregor has been sidelined since fighting Dustin Poirier at UFC 264 in July 2021, where he suffered a gruesome leg break in the opening round. ‘The Notorious’ has since managed to pile on the pounds and appears to be walking around with a far bulkier physique of around 190lbs.He even announced his intention to compete at welterweight upon his return to the octagon later this year.
And the trash-talking Masvidal has now taken several savage digs at McGregor in the hope of taking on ‘Mystic Mac’ this year.Masvidal told ESPN Deportes: “He is false, he knows that I am a man who hits hard and that I come to kill, I do not come to play hug in the cage, I am going to give everything inside me to kill him.“I have a little size, although now he is puncturing and putting steroids and all kinds of things, but he is still a little boy.“I would love to fight at 170 pounds, but I don’t wait for anyone.
If he wants to do it, I’ll break his face, if he doesn’t want to do it, let him come next.”Do you think Masvidal would "break" McGregor's face?
Let us know in the comments section.Masvidal, like McGregor, is coming off the back of a losing streak, having lost twice to UFC welterweight champ Kamaru Usman and once to Colby Covington by decision earlier this year.The aftermath of the fight allegedly saw Covington attacked by Masvidal outside a Miami restaurant.
