The beef between the Boxing legend Manny Pacquiao and the MMA legend Conor McGregor continues. Ahead of the pageant event of Tyson Fury vs. Francis Ngannou, McGregor threatened Manny Pacquiao on Twitter. The tweet was deleted, but the Pac-Man gave an untamed reply.

In the voice note that Conor McGregor posted on Twitter, he threatened Pacquiao that he would kick him in the head, the neck, and the inside leg. The Irishman continued to menace the boxer by saying he would drag him by his ankle across the stage. When asked about this in an interview with MMAJunkie, Pacquiao replied that McGregor wasn’t active anymore and laughed it off. Here is what Pacquiao said:

Oh, He's not active anymore.

The dispute between these fighters started as early as 2021. Paradigm Sports is Mcgregor’s management team, and they signed Pacquiao in 2020. After not abiding by the contract signed, Pacquiao was sued by Paradigm Sports for 8 million dollars. Paradigm Sports eventually won the lawsuit in court. However, Pacquiao had not settled the deal, and that was the reason for Mcgregor’s fury.

Conor McGregor has remained inactive since his leg injury that he suffered in his bout against Dustin Poirier in 2021. At the same time, Manny Pacquiao had retired from boxing and enjoying his life. They were invited to the MMA-Boxing crossover event of Fury vs. Ngannou and probably will be in the same building.

Conor McGregor spoke about the blockbuster fight between Tyson Fury and Francis Ngannou:

“The Notorious” Conor Mcgregor was invited to Riyad, Saudi Arabia, to witness the spectacle of the Battle of the Baddest. Ahead of this event, Mcgregor released a couple of voice notes on Twitter talking about the fight. He thanked the promoters for the invite and showed his excitement to be at the event.

Further, McGregor analyzed the fight between Fury and Ngannou. He said that even though Ngannou was a mixed martial artist, he had the style of a kickboxer/boxer. He added that Ngannou had a strikers mentality, and it would help him in this bout. As for Tyson Fury, McGregor described him as fast, light, and elusive.

Conor McGregor was the former two-weight division champion in the UFC. Later, he fought Floyd Mayweather in a lucrative MMA-Boxing crossover match. That catalyzed all the crossover boxing matches happening in the present. Now, he is expected to return to the octagon in 2024.
