Following Conor McGregor’s TKO loss to Dustin Poirier in the main event of UFC 257 over the weekend, Floyd Mayweather had some thoughts.
Mayweather took to social media to throw some shade at his former opponent who he dubbed “Con Artist McLoser” along with diving deeper into a rant about racism.
Mayweather quoted an Instagram post that questioned the double-standard between how people respond to McGregor for the same flashiness and how they respond to Mayweather.
“Why is @floydmayweather hated for the way he carries himself but @thenotoriousmma is loved for the same way he carries himself?”, the post read.
Mayweather then added his own thoughts.
“I seen this post and my take on it is that the world knows Con Artist McLoser can steal everything from me and be loved but I’m hated,” he wrote. “That just lets you all know that racism still exists. Just know, that bum will never be me or be on my level. I’m just built different, my mindset is on another planet, my skills are second to none, I’m a natural-born winner and yes I talk a lot of trash, but every time I back it up! This is what they hate.
“It’s sad that you can be a poor black kid from the ghetto that has dealt with racism your whole life and work extremely hard to put yourself and your family in a better position, and most of the hate comes from my own people.”
And before ending his rant, Mayweather took one final shot at McGregor.
“Connor (sic) cannot even win in his own sport,” he jabbed. “But talking about coming back to boxing to fight Pacquiao. Nobody wants to see that, it’s like my leftovers eating leftovers.”
And because of his loss at UFC 257, it seems like the Pacquiao fight is now off the table.
