Conor McGregor had several feuds throughout his career, one of the most unexpected one being with rapper and mogul 50 Cent. Their rivalry peaked during McGregor’s prime, with both exchanging harsh words online and mocking each other in viral Instagram posts. Recently, fans were surprised to see them reunite, smiling together at The Black Forge Inn, appearing to bury the hatchet.

In a private discussion away from cameras, both celebrities cleared old misunderstandings and acknowledged mutual respect developed through years of success. The meeting felt more like a celebration, with both icons recognizing the value in merging audiences and brand power.

Photos of the event showed them laughing, toasting glasses, and embracing, indicating personal reconciliation going forward. McGregor not only hosted the event but also promoted it on social media. “50 Cent in da house at The Black Forge to celebrate his birthday! Happy Birthday 50!

McGregor wrote on his Instagram story. A second story appeared shortly after: “50 Cent is in the gaf now! THE BLACK FORGE INN! His 50th bday today. SPECTACULAR”. McGregor and 50 Cent’s beef began around 2017 during the intense promotional build-up for the Floyd Mayweather vs. McGregor fight.

50 Cent, close friend of Mayweather, consistently mocked McGregor online, calling him overrated and clownish during interviews and Instagram posts. ‘The Notorious’ back then was at the top of his trash-talking abilities and didn’t back out at all. McGregor responded fiercely, posting shirtless photos of the rapper and mocked his age, music career, and failed boxing aspirations.

Their exchanges turned personal, with McGregor calling 50 Cent the b-word and the rapper called him racist and irrelevant. Though it was mostly an online dispute, fans loved the trash talk and often speculated if it would escalate physically someday. The beef cooled off with time, but the jabs remained a memorable part of McGregor’s crossover feud era.

Since their infamous feud, dynamics have shifted drastically as 50 Cent developed issues with Floyd Mayweather over personal and business disagreements. Meanwhile, Conor McGregor’s prolonged inactivity inside the UFC octagon has left fans increasingly doubtful about his highly anticipated return.

Last year, speculations surrounding McGregor’s comeback almost happened after Dana White announced UFC 303. It was fueled by training videos and cryptic messages shared on social media. Unfortunately, an injury forced the Irishman out of his long-awaited comeback.

With repeated delays and no official fight announcement, belief in the ‘Mystic Mac’ has slowly started to fade away.

Nevertheless, here are some reactions from fans following the moment that went viral on the internet.

As expected, fans were hyped about the recent collaboration between McGregor and 50 Cent. Many joked about their old beef and how the American rapper was genuinely happy embracing McGregor.
