The hits keep coming for Conor McGregor following his TKO loss to Dustin Poirier at UFC 257, this time courtesy of Floyd Mayweather Jr.
After UFC 257 wrapped up, legendary boxer Mayweather took to Instagram to take shots at the brash-Irishman, who he beat via TKO in the latter’s first-career professional boxing match, back in 2017.
In the fiery-post, Mayweather says McGregor isn’t on his level and responds to a post asking why McGregor is beloved for his brash behavior while he [Mayweather] is seemingly hated for the same behavior:
“I seen this post and my take on it is that the world knows Con Artist McLoser can steal everything from me and be loved but I’m hated,” he wrote. “That just lets you all know that racism still exist. Just know, that bum will never be me or be on my level. I’m just built different, my mindset is on another planet, my skills are second to none, I’m a natural-born winner and yes I talk a lot of trash, but every time I back it up!”
“This is what they hate. It’s sad that you can be a poor black kid from the ghetto that has dealt with racism your whole life and work extremely hard to put yourself and your family in a better position, and most of the hate come from my own people,” Mayweather added. “Connor cannot even win in his own sport, but talking about coming back to boxing to fight Pacquiao. Nobody wants to see that, it’s like my leftovers eating leftovers.”
