UFC featherweight champion Conor McGregor made a few more enemies after calling nearly all of the WWE wrestlers “puss–s” recently on a UFC 202 media conference call.
Even after the backlash from fans and quite a few professional wrestlers, McGregor never back peddled one bit, following up with a tweet saying that he would “slap the head off” the entire WWE roster, and would even do it “twice on Sunday’s.”
WWE Hall of Fame legend Ric Flair was very unhappy with the comments from “The Notorious” and had few harsh words for the UFC champ.
Despite “The Nature Boy” not caring for UFC featherweight champ, Flair is a big fan of former UFC middleweight champion Anderson Silva.
The two recently ran into each other and got a photo together and Flair had the highest of praise for “The Spider.”
Great to see one of the greatest mixed martial artists ever @SpiderAnderson! I wonder if he ever used the Figure 4? pic.twitter.com/gdwlAsm8MZ

Great to see you my friend. https://t.co/5E1URWLpBr

Quite a different tune from what “The Nature Boy” thinks of McGregor.
After Diaz finishes you again, I dare you to try guys like Dolph, Brock, or Fit.
Oh you're welcome for your gimmick pic.twitter.com/0qziVjlMav
