“What the Fu*k Are You Saying You Big Zombie”- Conor McGregor Responds to Anthony Smith’s Recent Comments
Conor McGregor has gone berserk on Twitter lately after his UFC 264 leg break against Dutsin Poirier. His attacks haven’t spared anybody. According to many, the Irishman has crossed the line at some points too as he has talked about families and more. Anthony Smith is one such individual.
‘Lionheart’ was stunned to see McGregor’s tirade and said that people have been shot for less. McGregor took note of those comments and issued a response to the former light-heavyweight title challenger recently.

“Who’s getting shot and for what? What the f*ck are you saying you big zombie. The disrespect coming my way consistently is what is causing my response. Are you stupid? You do not see this? Fu*ck off and leave me alone you lovers. You nobodies. I’m preparing to return,” wrote the Irish fighter on Twitter recently.
How ‘Lionheart’ responds to those comments, remains to be seen. Smith hasn’t been the only fighter from other weight classes McGregor has gone after recently. The likes of Michael Bisping, Daniel Cormier too haven’t escaped his wrath.
Conor McGregor has been updating fans about his recovery
While McGregor has been active on Twitter, he seems to be recovering pretty well from his injury too. The Irish fighter has kept his fans updated about his recovery. He recently posted a clip of him riding a bike. ‘The Notorious’ looks well on course to be healing.
5 weeks, 5 days post op, I am back on the bike.

He can’t be expected to return until the latter half of 2022 though, by any means. It’s important that the Irishman recovers well from such a devastating injury. His antics though have certainly drawn some unwanted attention to him, to say the least.

McGregor is hoping to jump among the very best fighters straight away once he is fit to go. The fourth fight with Dustin Poirier or a trilogy showdown against Nate Diaz has been touted as the most possible comeback fight for him. However, he hasn’t spared calling out the like of Kamaru Usman as well.
WHo will McGregor face upon his return? What do you make of his recent outburst on Anthony Smith? Let us know your thoughts.
