Conor McGregor, the outspoken UFC fighter, recently caused a stir on Twitter with his late-night ramblings. In his latest tweets, he not only took shots at other top teams in the sport but also praised his own coaches, John Kavanagh and Co. However, what caught the attention of many MMA fans was the possibility that he may have accidentally revealed the winning team of the upcoming season of The Ultimate Fighter (TUF 31).
The information regarding TUF 31 is meant to remain a secret, but McGregor’s tweets have piqued the interest of many fans who are eager to learn more about the show. The filming for the program just wrapped up last week, and rumors are already circulating that McGregor’s team, known as “Team McGregor vs. Team Chandler,” may have emerged victorious. This revelation has sparked a lot of excitement and speculation about which team’s competitors will make it to the finals.
Adding to the anticipation is the news that Stephen “Wonderboy” Thompson will be making an appearance on the show to support McGregor’s squad in the Bantamweight and Lightweight competitions. McGregor’s reputation for being outspoken and unpredictable has only added to the excitement and intrigue surrounding TUF 31.
As McGregor’s tweets continue to make waves on social media, even his rivals are taking notice. Ali Abdelaziz, a former MMA manager of Khabib Nurmagomedov and a longtime foe of McGregor, was one of several to respond to the Irish fighter’s latest antics.
“Hey please this sounds like you taking, you out of your mind,” Ali wrote. “Firas, Trevor, Javier, Greg Jackson and Mike Brown you and your coach cannot even shine their shoes, your team alongside 20 UFC fighters got cut from the UFC because you all suck, WTF you talking about?”
“Hey, s— stain on the game, I’m talking as of now it is beginning to bare fruit,” McGregor responded. “We beat their system of fighting on Tuf. Its locked down. It’s no wonder s— pants scurried. There’s no competing now. The head of the style is too fat a b— and afraid to compete again. So we win. You can’t compete with us. Watch and witness you rat bastard.”
Despite the contentious nature of his social media posts, Conor McGregor continues to make headlines, this time for potentially revealing a major spoiler for The Ultimate Fighter (TUF) 31. According to his tweets, McGregor’s team, “Team McGregor vs. Team Chandler,” may have progressed to the finals of the tournament-style competition, which is set to air on ESPN starting May 30, 2023 and run until Aug. 15, 2023.
While some MMA fans may be eager to witness more antics from the “Notorious” squad, others are concerned about the potential damage to the integrity of the tournament format. McGregor’s tendency to disclose information about the upcoming season could also harm the UFC’s plans for the show.
Despite the potential risks, McGregor’s social media presence continues to generate buzz and anticipation among fans. Whether his latest revelations will ultimately benefit or harm the UFC remains to be seen, but one thing is certain – MMA fans are eagerly awaiting the premiere of TUF 31.
