Rafael Fiziev- Conor McGregor
It seems like UFC Lightweight Rafael Fiziev doesn’t get much bothered with the online Twitter feud, even when you’re tweeting against UFC’s biggest megastar. Fiziev is back this weekend fighting the biggest fight of his career when he will headline the UFC Vegas 58 card against former UFC Lightweight champion Rafael Dos Anjos. Fiziev is an upcoming standup fighter with slick striking skills. So far, Fiziev has defeated the likes of Bobby Green, Mark Diazkiese, Brad Riddell, Renato Carneiro and many more.
Fiziev recently got in a back and forth on Twitter against UFC megastar Conor McGregor, who started suggesting how Fiziev’s lean back counter to a head kick can be countered with a transition of execution from a head kick to axe kick. Fiziev asked McGregor to explain to him how this is possible by training with him in Thailand and also told McGregor to not live in a “fantasy land.” McGregor however, came back harder on Fiziev with proof and an insult even when the latter mentioned that he didn’t mean any disrespect.

In a pre-fight media scrum for UFC Vegas 58, Fiziev speaks about the Twitter as mentioned above feud with McGregor. McGregor’s tweet was the concluding tweet that said “No bother pal, sound. Think of me as tiger woods with a 12 iron and your nose as the golf ball. And think of me sprinting for it with a running switch kick and fuck your little bend back. You little bend back nobody bitch. Oh, you bend over, wow, that’s awesome. Congrats pal haha”
“I respect everybody, also I respect Conor,” said Fiziev in response. “He made a big world for this [fight] business and nobody made this as he did. But before sleep later at night, he drinks first, after that maybe he smokes and after maybe like [drugs] and then after that maybe last one little bit Proper 12 again and he takes his phone and starts talking sh*t you know,” he concluded.
What do you make of Fiziev? Do you think we will see these two fight each other or surprisingly train with each other sooner or later in time? Who do you think wins between Fiziev and his upcoming opponent Rafael Dos Anjos? Dos Anjos has wins over the likes of Neil Magny, Kevin Lee, Benson Henderson, Nate Diaz, Anthony Pettis, Donald Cerrone, Renato Carneiro, Paul Felder, Kevin Lee, Robbie Lawler and many more.
