When Joaquin Buckley called out Conor McGregor to a potential fight

Conor McGregor hasn't competed since breaking his leg in the opening round against Dustin Poirier at UFC 264 in 2021. He was schedued to face fellow 'TUF 31' coach Michael Chandler at UFC 303 last year. However, a toe injury derailed his comeback.

Given McGregor's superstar status, many UFC fighters wanted a piece of him, including Joaquin Buckley, who called out the Irishman following his dominant unanimous decision win over Nursulton Ruziboev at UFC St. Louis.

During his post-fight interview with Michael Bisping, Buckley said:

''Conor McGregor, I want you. You fighting at 170, but you ain't fighting a welterweight. You're fighting a lightweight midget. Come at me. You said you built your weight up, but you're bullying Sean O'Malley and Ryan Garcia. Come and bully me, dog. Let's see what you're really about. I did research on the McGregor name, and you come from a long, long line of McH*es...It's my time, and if you want to be the king you've got to behead the king. It's time to take the throne."
