UFC welterweight champion Kamaru Usman saw his Twitter hacked during UFC 246, but Conor McGregor isn’t necessarily buying the story.<\/p>\n

Usman’s Twitter account sent out several profanity-laced Tweets directed towards McGregor and his wife during UFC 246. At the post-fight press conference, UFC president Dana White confirmed that Usman’s Twitter was hacked.<\/p>\n

Here’s what White told the media (h\/t MMAjunkie.com<\/a>).<\/p>\n

\u201cI called Conor. I said, \u2018He got hacked. So don\u2019t say anything, don\u2019t do anything.\u2019 Usman and Ali (Abdelaziz) are sitting right in front of where Conor comes out and does the thing. So the first thing I did was tell Conor that, and he didn\u2019t believe it. He doesn\u2019t believe he got hacked. But, we had no problems, so,” White said.<\/p>\n

However, McGregor isn’t necessarily buying that. Ali Abdelaziz, the manager of Usman and several other prominent MMA fighters including Khabib Nurmagomedov, Henry Cejudo, and Frankie Edgar, is known for tweeting from his client’s accounts, and McGregor thinks there’s a chance Abdelaziz was behind these tweets from Usman as well<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m pretty skeptical of that. I\u2019m skeptical of that, because one came through early, and it had all the hallmarks of that little (expletive) weasel Ali. They give him control of the accounts. He had Frankie (Edgar\u2019s) account, he had Henry (Cejudo\u2019s) account. This has been going on a while. He gets it and write something through their thing. I\u2019ve been in discussions with some of these athletes, as well, to try to come on board and help them out with that. Then the way it was written, I knew exactly where it came from, and now all of a sudden a little bit heavier ones then it became a hack job. Whatever. I don\u2019t know what the (expletive) is going on tonight. It\u2019s been a weird night. The two guys doing the mad stuff. I don\u2019t know,” McGregor said.<\/p>\n

Do you believe Dana White that Kamaru Usman had his Twitter hacked or do you agree with Conor McGregor that maybe that’s not the case?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
