Conor McGregor challenges singer 50 Cent for one-on-one fight

Irish professional mixed martial artist Conor McGregor has said that he wants to fight 50 Cent aka Curtis James Jackson III after the rapper made fun of the mixed martial artist in a series of Instagram posts. Conor had thought that 50 Cent and he had become friends following the promotion for the Mayweather fight. Yet on October 27, the Irishman hit out at the 'Candy Shop' singer because of a set of memes that mocked him. Fiddy superimposed Conor's head onto the body of Britney Spears in a photo of her during the infamous umbrella attack which made Conor furious.

He added that throughout the course of the Floyd Mayweather build-up he used him as a promotional tool on the free. Conor added that he was very thankful for 50 Cent back then as he knew he was linked to Floyd so he tied him in also and he responded big time and capitalized on that audience. But soon after that, 50 Cent started to make memes on Conor, he alleged. Conor explained that every time he went to the internet he saw 50 Cent had posted something on him and also blocked Conor eventually. Yet other people tag Conor saying 50 Cent is saying this or that.

Many took offense to Conor's behavior back then. Yet Conor continued his attacks on Khabib calling his father a quivering coward at a press conference. Connor reportedly mentioned Dagestan in his comments which was disliked by a native. Though Conor explained himself for the comment later, it was not taken note of and rather a bottle was thrown at him by the crowd.
