Conor McGregor vs. Tommy Fury is a matchup that's now in discussion following the Englishman jumping ship regarding his previously booked bout with Darren Till. Unfortunately, fans on MMA X/Twitter haven't responded positively to the challenge issued by Fury.

The undefeated boxer took to the social media platform to respond to rumors that instead of Logan Paul, 'The Notorious' is now being linked to a boxing match with KSI. However, Fury believes that McGregor should shift his focus onto him, even disregarding Paul and KSI as damaged goods.

"@TheNotoriousMMA don't waste your time with beaten fighters. Fight the man who's beaten them all and still has his 0. I'll be waiting..."

Unfortunately for Fury, his callout was poorly received by fans, many of whom flocked to his tweet to dismiss his interest in facing McGregor, who has never even mentioned Fury before. One fan poked fun at Fury for withdrawing from his boxing match with Till over the latter's threats to head kick him.

"Why? So you can pull if he jokes about kicking you if he's losing. No one takes you seriously anymore Tommy Fumbles"

Others continued to scoff at him for his withdrawal from the Till fight.

"So you can pull out. Lol bruh sit back down no one would watch"

This sentiment continued to be echoed throughout the thread.

"You dipped from the Darren Till fight. Why would Conor waste his time on a wet wipe like you."

Another fan found humor in Fury seeking a bout with the UFC star.

"Haha beg Tommy beg."

As things currently stand, McGregor's combat sports career appears to be in limbo. He was previously scheduled to return at UFC 303 but withdrew from the card, citing a toe injury. Now, he's currently embroiled in serious controversy, with no clear date for his octagon return.

Before the UFC offered him an official return date, Conor McGregor was the subject of countless delays relating to USADA and general uncertainty regarding his willingness to fight. Despite being linked to Michael Chandler, the Irishman opted to call out other foes, including KSI.

"I know your man, KSI, is in the crowd, yeah. And he couldn't box eggs if he worked in an egg-boxing factory. So if he wants to get in here, I'll give him a final, bare-knuckle if he wants."

It was an unexpected callout given McGregor's well-known derision for influencer boxing.
