Conor McGregor says Artem Lobov defamation case a "stupid strain" on Irish court's time
Conor McGregor recently went on a Twitter rant against Artem Lobov, and it seems the former friends and training partners are no closer to reconciliation after their public dispute.
Lobov has taken legal action against McGregor for cutting him out of the 'Proper 12 Whisky' deal, which the Russian also claims to be his brainchild. Things took a turn for the worse when Lobov filed another lawsuit against Conor McGregor for defamation.
In a series of now-deleted tweets, Conor McGregor initially reacted to a tweet showing a video covering the defamation case in the courts of Ireland, particularly the part where the news anchor read out McGregor's old tweets insulting Lobov. McGregor wrote:
"Classic Stuff."
'The Notorious' continued to tweet his exasperation over the legal procedures and claimed Artem Lobov should "leave him alone" for the sake of the Irish courts. He wrote:
"Actually the more I think of it, this is unbelievably unnecessary, and just a plain stupid strain on the Irish courts time. Artem you've become a fool! just leave me alone you little denny sausage. You've now all over the news known as an "uncooked sausage head" man. F****n hell."
Conor McGregor last fought at UFC 264, losing against Dustin Poirier after suffering a nasty leg fracture that forced him to the sidelines for over a year. However, it is expected that the Irishman will make his much-anticipated comeback next year.

Conor McGregor calls KSI a "friendly little nerd" and claims he is "still rockin" with Dillon Danis
It seems that Conor McGregor is still maintaining a relationship with Dillon Danis despite rumors that all wasn't well between them.
During the aforementioned Twitter storm, McGregor was asked about his friendship with his old grappling partner. Many assumed that Danis was no longer pals with 'The Notorious' after the Irishman praised Nate Diaz for slapping Danis' teammate during an altercation at UFC 282.
However, 'the champ champ' cleared the air in a tweet, saying:
"I am not too sure. Maybe because of the rartem situation? I’m still rockin with Dillon. All the way!"

British YouTuber KSI, who's set to fight Dillon Danis in a boxing match on January 14, replied to the Irishman's tweet and took a shot at his upcoming opponent. He claimed he would "do some serious damage" to Danis during their bout.
'The Notorious' fired back at KSI, claiming that Danis should focus on MMA instead. He wrote:
"Brother you’re a friendly little nerd I don’t care. He should be back doing mma if he is doing this little nothing burger match with you. I couldn’t care less about this genre of boxing, I am sorry..."
