UFC 234: Conor McGregor Mentions Bouts With Anderson Silva & Nate Diaz, Trades Tweets With Kelvin Gastelum

Conor McGregor retiring

Conor McGregor seems pretty engaged these days in the world of MMA, and the Irish superstar had a busy night with social media during UFC 234.

McGregor clearly didn’t care for Kelvin Gastelum’s decision to walk around with a championship belt (it turns out it was Henry Cejudo’s, who was in attendance). Gastelum was supposed to fight champion Robert Whittaker, but the latter had to withdraw due to a hernia and emergency surgery.

Well, McGregor shared out the post below, apparently referencing some marks he noticed on Gastelum’s face. The middleweight contender, as you’ll see, had a fiery response.

After the card’s main event, which saw Anderson Silva lose to fellow all-star striker Israel Adesanya via decision, McGregor posted this:

During the post-fight presser, Silva floated the idea of fighting Nick Diaz in Curitiba, Brazil. That also drew McGregor’s interest, who proposed a rubber match with Nate Diaz on the same card.

So, between all this, and McGregor’s previous exchanges with Donald Cerrone, it seems pretty clear the former featherweight and lightweight champ is keen to fight.
