Another tweeted: “You'd never believe this guy has 1 win in 7 years with the way he talks himself up.”
A third fan added: “He’s aged, he’s done.”
Someone else wrote: “He lost the will to fight after the Mayweather fight. Made generational wealth and any come back mentioned is just hot air.”
A fifth commented: “This guy won’t fight again and if he does he loses.”

“For all the figures I’ve brought in this game, I sell more than all of them combined.”
He added: “No one in the history of the fight game has been treated the way I’ve been getting treated at this minute.
“From what I came through, to what I bring. They f****** should open the floodgates for me. I’m waiting! And my patience is wearing thin on me waiting.”
On a potential fight with Manny Pacquaio, McGregor said: “They are talking Manny here in Saudi. The lads in the UFC aren’t really talking any. So, the lads here are talking Manny, the UFC aren’t talking any.

“Give me something. I’m supposed to be back in April. It was supposed to be December!”
