Joaquin Buckley calls out Conor McGregor following Fourth-Straight win at UFC St. Louis: 'Come at me, bro!'

Joaquin Buckley had a big-name callout following his big win at UFC St. Louis on Saturday night.

Still fresh from his second-round TKO victory over Vicente Luque in March, ‘New Mansa’ stepped inside the Octagon to deliver another spectacular showing in front of his hometown crow. Buckley did exactly that, dominating the significantly taller Nursulton Ruziboev in an entertaining three-round scrap during the evening’s co-main event.

After securing a decisive unanimous decision victory, Buckley used his post-fight interview with Michael Bisping to call out Irish megastar Conor McGregor, challenging the former two-division champion to step up and take on a real welterweight rather than a “midget lightweight” like Michael Chandler.

“Who do I want next? He’s got a fight already booked up, but it’s a massive name. There’s only one name you should call out. A powerful name. That name is Conor McGregor. I want you. You fighting at 170, but you ain’t fighting a welterweight. You fighting a lightweight midget. Come at me, bro. You said you built your weight up, but you’re bullying Sean O’Malley and Ryan Garcia. Come and bully me and let’s see what you’re really about.

“I did research on the McGregor name and you come from a long line of McHos! Your daddy was a ho. Your grand daddy was a ho. Your great great grand pappy was a ho, so I guess it’s safe to say your momma raised a ho! And if you don’t respond, the whole world will know I’m telling the truth.”

Don’t count on Seeing Joaquin Buckley vs. conor mcGregor anytime soon… Or ever

Sitting at No. 11 in the welterweight rankings, Joaquin Buckley has now won four straight and is 9-4 under the UFC banner.

‘New Mansa’ will likely look to break into the top ten in his next outing, but we wouldn’t recommend anyone hold their breath when it comes to a fight with Conor McGregor.

Of course, ‘Mystic Mac’ already has a date with former Bellator MMA champion Michael Chandler. Nearly 18 months after their fight was first announced, the two high-octane superstars will square off in the UFC 303 headliner on June 29, closing out this year’s International Fight Week in Las Vegas with a bang.

On Saturday, June 29, the Irishman will make his long-awaited return to the Octagon for a showdown with the former Bellator MMA champion in the UFC 303 main event. It will be McGregor’s first fight since breaking his leg against Dustin Poirier nearly three years ago.

Conor McGregor

In the time since his last outing, ‘Mystic Man’ has stayed busy with a series of projects. He unloaded his Proper No. 12 brand of Irish Whiskey for a whopping $600 million, made his big screen debut in a remake of the 1989 action classic Road House, and became a part owner of Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship.

Now, it looks like McGregor is ready to drop a few bars for his next pet project.

Taking to Instagram, the former two-division champion shared an image of himself in the studio with the caption, “Big announcement incoming…”

With the feud between Drake and Kendrick Lamar dominating headlines, maybe we’ll see the Irishman put his own Irish twist on the rap game and slam a few Sucker MCs in the process.

Or it could be something else entirely, but fans online are pretty convinced that McGregor is trying to take a page out of Ryan Garcia’s playbook.

UFC megastar Conor McGregor ordered to disclose his earnings from Proper No. 12 sale

Conor McGregor has not one, but two big fights right around the corner.

On Saturday, June 29, McGregor will return to the Octagon for the first time in nearly three years when he meets former Bellator MMA champion ‘Iron’ Michael Chandler in the UFC 303 main event.

Today, the Irishman’s net worth is estimated to be over $200 million — a majority of that coming from the sale of his popular brand of Irish whiskey, Proper No. 12. Selling a majority stake to Proximo Spirits for $600 million in 2021, McGregor and everyone involved in the product became very rich.

Well, maybe not everyone.

McGregor’s longtime friend and former UFC fighter Artem Lobov has brought legal action against the former two-division champion, claiming that he was promised a 5% stake in Proper No. 12, but never received any money from the sale. McGregor reportedly offered Lobov a flat $1 million which ‘The Russian Hammer’ declined.

Artem Lobov could be entitled to $20 million from the sale of Conor McGregor’s Proper No. 12

As a result, McGregor is being forced to disclose his earnings to the Dublin High Court by Friday, May 10 per a report from The Irish Sun.

McGregor is said to have banked roughly $140 million from the sale. If Lobov successfully makes his argument, he could walk away with 5% of the $600 million the whiskey brand sold for — or $20 million.

Lobov had also filed a lawsuit against Conor McGregor for defamation after ‘Mystic Mac’ dubbed him a “rat” during a social media rant in 2022. However, the Dublin High Court cleared the Irisman of any wrongdoing and closed the case.

“There is (sic) levels and in 7 weeks and 5 days you are gonna see the very, very top level,” Conor McGregor posted on his official X account after UFC alum, Dan Hardy picked him to beat Michael Chandler. “This next run is for the Clan! #BeenReady”
