Conor McGregor: Conor McGregor, the former UFC champion, has been in the news for all the wrong reasons lately. Following his controversial appearance at the NBA finals, the Irishman has landed himself in hot waters once again. According to reports, McGregor missed the deadline to enter the USADA testing pool, which has led to severe backlash from fans.
‘Coward’ Conor McGregor Trolled For Sparring With Dillon Danis While He Is Still Out Of USADA Testing Pool- “UFC 296”
To make matters worse, McGregor has been trolled for sparring with Dillon Danis despite being out of the USADA testing pool. In a recent tweet, McGregor shared pictures of himself and Danis sparring in New York City. The tweet was met with criticism from fans, who called McGregor a “coward” for sparring while not being eligible to compete. And here are some more fan reactions:
One fan asked “Why didn’t u join usada”
“Take the test” one fan said
The UFC requires all fighters to be in the USADA testing pool for a minimum of six months before they can compete. This is to ensure that fighters are clean and not using any performance-enhancing drugs. McGregor, who has been out of action since his loss to Dustin Poirier in July 2021, was expected to return to the octagon in 2023. However, he reportedly missed the deadline to enter the testing pool, which means he won’t be eligible to compete until later in the year.
The news of McGregor’s failure to enter the USADA testing pool has not gone down well with fans. Many have criticized the fighter for not putting in the effort to make his return possible. McGregor has been known to be a vocal advocate for clean sport in the past, and this latest development has left many fans disappointed.
It’s worth noting that sparring and competition are two different things, and there are no rules preventing fighters from sparring while out of the USADA testing pool. However, the backlash from fans shows just how much McGregor’s reputation has taken a hit in recent times.
McGregor has been one of the biggest stars in the UFC for years, but his recent controversies have led to many fans turning against him. It remains to be seen how this latest development will affect his future in the sport. McGregor has always been a fighter who thrives on attention, but this latest backlash may be a sign that his star power is starting to fade. Only time will tell if he can bounce back and regain the trust of his fans. Follow InsideSport on GOOGLE NEWS / For UFC News updates with InsideSport.IN
