The bout, which took place at the Amalie Arena in Tampa, Florida, saw Paul secure victory in the sixth round with a knockout.
McGregor took toX/Twitterafter the fight to blast Paul. “40-pound weight difference, juiced out of his head, and still sh*tting himself in there,” the former lightweight and featherweight UFC champion said.
Continuing, the MMA fighter suggested that Paul’s business advisor, Nakisa Bidarian “should take him to Vegas,” adding “Oh that’s right you could never, the athletic commission testing, real testing, real fighting. B*tch asses. You could never.”
McGregor then took the opportunity to defend Mike Tyson, who Paul had originally been scheduled to fight in July. “Calling out 60-year-old Mike Tyson fresh off an in-flight medical emergency? I swear to God, a fat can of btch pss.”
Tyson, 58,pulled out of the fixture in Maydue to an “ulcer flare-up”.
Paul wasn’t the only subject of McGregor’s scathing remarks. In a follow-up post, the latter chided Mike Perry. “Hey Mike you’re released and you can go and compete in your smelly, dirty boxing championship thing,” he said, signing off with “You’re fired.”
Jake Paul’s boxing recordnow sits at 10-1 after his victory over Perry. Seven of his victories have been by KO.
