Conor McGregor says "no hands needed" to conquer Canelo Alvarez, threatens "ligament stomping" in sharp response to the Mexican boxer

Conor McGregor is not passively accepting Canelo Alvarez's taunts.

Alvarez recently reacted to McGregor's claim that he landed more punches on Floyd Mayweather than the reigning undisputed super middleweight champion. The Mexican boxer confidently stated on X that he would require only "one hand" to defeat the former UFC two-division champion:

"I just need one hand with you and I don’t need to throw so many punches 🤣"

However, it appears that Alvarez's remarks didn't go over well with 'The Notorious'. Conor McGregor took to X and returned fire in his signature brash style:

"Saul you uncooked chicken, I’ll stomp the ligaments out of your knee joint. I don’t even need hands to end you, I’ll kick you raw pink, leave you looking like you were left out in the sun too long haha freckle a*se. I will see you and we will see. Canelo is a cornflake, no sugar."

Check out the posts below:

'Money' delivered Canelo Alvarez his first professional career defeat back in September 2013, showcasing one of the most outstanding defensive performances of his career. During the bout, Alvarez managed to connect with only 22% of his punches, with a mere 15% success rate for his jabs.

On the other hand, Conor McGregor landed 26% of his punches against Mayweather in 2017 and managed to throw more punches per round than Canelo. It's important to note that McGregor fought a 40-year-old Mayweather, who returned to the squared circle for a significant payday.
