Belal Muhammad roasts Conor McGregor on Twitter after the Irishman laughed at a post mocking the welterweight
Belal Muhammad has taken a hilarious jibe at Conor McGregor after the Irishman laughed at a social media post that mocked the welterweight.
McGregor reacted with a laughing emoji to a post that made fun of Muhammad's skills as a fighter. In response, 'Bully B' took to Twitter to fire back at McGregor, claiming that he should learn how to check kicks from Dustin Poirier.
"If you want checked kicks, look at Dustin."

Belal Muhammad was referring to Conor McGregor's unfortunate leg break at UFC 264 back in July. Towards the end of the first round, McGregor threw a punch and as he got back into position, his leg snapped, causing a clean break of the tibia and fibula.
Following the bout, Dustin Poirier claimed that McGregor may have fractured his leg from a kick that 'The Diamond' checked during the fight.
"He fractured it on one of the kicks at the start of the fight. It was probably cracked and on the twist of the punch it finished him. He did hit me with a good cross just like the last fight. I didn’t see it and it kind of clipped me. I was a little bit buzzed but my legs were still there… I checked the kick, he was kicking very hard. You never want to get a win that way, but what happened was the result of checking a kick. I’m more than sure of it. He got what he had coming to him." [h/t UNILAD]
