"Andrew Tate has a lot to learn from you" - Fans divided after Conor McGregor continues to publicise high-life after pulling out from UFC 303

UFC superstar Conor McGregor has excelled in business endeavors outside his fighting career. The Irishman is reaping the rewards of the remarkable success often demonstrated through his social media.

McGregor recently posted a picture of himself relaxing on his luxury yacht. The picture carried a quote from the blockbuster single, 'California Love', which was hip-hop legend Tupac Shakur's first single as an artist for Death Row Records and also his comeback single after he was released from prison. The caption featured words from Dr. Dre's verse, "Lean mean money-making machine."

However, the post drew mixed reactions from fans still anticipating fight news from their beloved fighter. McGregor pulled out from his UFC 303 assignment against Michael Chandler due to a broken toe and there has been no confirmations on his rescheduled return date or opponent yet. With all that in mind, some fans wrote:

"Would love it if u actually got in the octagon for once."

"Lean mean sore toe nowhere to be seen."

Meanwhile, other supportive fans wrote:

"Andrew Tate has a lot to learn from you."

"Conor living the life there."

While confirming the injury that led to his withdrawal from the Chandler fight, McGregor highlighted that in the past, he gritted through injuries and showed up to compete to save fight cards. However, now that he's returning after the horrific injury that kept him away from the game since July 2021, 'The Notorious' wants to ensure that he's in excellent physical form whenever he chooses to make the octagon walk again.

Nate Diaz's coach pushes for a trilogy fight against Conor McGregor

Some rivalries in combat sports write themselves, while a few others are fated to collide. The latter axiom rings true for the rivalry between Nate Diaz and Conor McGregor. From the perspective of McGregor's coach John Kavanagh, the rivalry stands as a pivotal narrative in their careers with character arcs like Batman and Joker.

While McGregor's path may collide with Michael Chandler's, Diaz's longtime coach Cesar Gracie asserts that the fight with his pupil spells a "bigger fight" for all parties involved. Speaking in an interview with Submission Radio, he said:

“You know Chandler and McGregor is a good fight, too. But, I mean, just the history of Nate and McGregor, I think it’d be the bigger fan fight if they had a trilogy. And in my opinion, that’s what I’m thinking."
