During Conor McGregor's inactivity in combat sports, he has been criticized by several athletes and has now been targeted by internet sensation Hasbulla.
'The Notorious' superstar has been inactive from the sport since 2021 when he unfortunately broke his ankle during his trilogy fight against Dustin Poirier.
Since then, Conor McGregor has continually teased a return to the Octagon, even though his planned return against Michael Chandler was canceled last June due to a broken toe.

Hasbulla slams Conor McGregor as he vows to kick the UFC star
More recently, McGregor revealed he is in talks to face Logan Paul in a surprise boxing fight in India before returning to the UFC.
Despite this, talks regarding that potential fight appear to have stalled, as Paul recently stated that he is dedicating his life to WWE following their recent historic move to Netflix.
While Logan may not be McGregor's next opponent, his business partner KSI claimed he will fight McGregor as talks appear to begin between the two.
With the Irishman's next move relatively unknown at this point, he has hilariously become the target of internet sensation Hasbulla.
The Russian social media icon is close friends with both Khabib Nurmagomedov and Islam Makhachev and was even previously part of Makhachev's corner team.
Historically, McGregor has had a lot to say about Hasbulla after he started going viral online for making fun of the likes of Alexander Volkanovski and Shaquille O'Neal.
“I'd like to kick that little bastard Hasbulla over a goal post. How much to get him on the volley? Kind of stinking inbred,” McGregor said in a now-deleted tweet on X.
Commenting on McGregor's status in the combat sports world, Hasbulla recently said: “Well, (Conor) loves hype. He thought he was going to hype himself up, but instead he promoted me.”
The internet sensation further claimed that if he comes across the UFC star, he will not hesitate to kick the 36-year-old.
“If we crossed paths, I would kick him in the legs. I don't know, but he would give me a side kick. I'm a man, why should I run from him? He is no longer an athlete. He is on medication there,” he continued.
Conor McGregor questions the marketability of his fellow UFC star in the latest tweet and delete
Prior to McGregor's revelation about a potential fight against Paul, rumors began swirling that the Irishman would return to the UFC to face Ilia Topuria.
The two have been involved in a long-running online feud with each other, but McGregor shut down the rumors.
Despite this, 'The Notorious' recently expressed doubts about Topuria's ability to sell out a UFC show in a Spanish stadium. Since becoming featherweight champion, Topuria has expressed a desire to host a show at the Santiago Bernabeu as the main event.
