Boxing Legend Disses Conor McGregor Using His Own Punchline

McGregor gets grilled by a boxing Hall of Famer.

Conor McGregor was on the receiving end of a roast that used his own punchline.

McGregor has had his share of enemies in both MMA and boxing. The "Notorious" one has hurled barbs with the likes of Khabib Nurmagomedov and Floyd Mayweather, but he's also had a go at International Boxing Hall of Famer Carl Froch.

The back-and-forth between the two certainly hasn't slowed down.

McGregor recently commented on an Instagram post where David Haye reflected on his WBA heavyweight title win against Nikolai Valuev back in 2009.

"What a performance!" McGregor wrote in response to Haye's post.

Froch caught wind of the comment and decided to take a dig at McGregor using a variation of one of his famous quotes.

"And what the fook do you know about Boxing!!" Froch wrote.

There seems to be no love lost between McGregor and Froch. In the past, McGregor has delivered scathing digs to Froch, such as this X post:

"That Froch tick, little scrawny pencil neck," McGregor wrote. "I’ll grab his head and twist it clean off at a oner with my bare hands. Little wally of a thing. I’ll slap you around you little toffee nose tosspot."

Time will tell if the war of words will actually lead to a bout between the two in the future. McGregor recently dismissed the idea of a boxing match with Froch, implying he'd simply slap him up.
