CONOR McGREGOR slammed Henry Cejudo as a ‘fat midget novice’ as he responded to a SIX-YEAR-OLD tweet.
Cejudo in November 2016 praised the Irishman for his iconic win over Eddie Alvarez, where he became the first to hold two UFC belts simultaneously.

Retired Cejudo, 35, tweeted: “@TheNotoriousMMA walks his talks #greatestofalltime.”
Only just responding, McGregor, 33, replied in a now-deleted post: “Fat midget novice. Lick a*** for press.”
It sparked an online war-of-words between the two former two-weight UFC champs.
McGregor then mocked Cejudo after the Olympic gold medalist trained women’s legend Cris Cyborg, 36.
He tweeted: “The audacity of this little fat midget novice to be holding a kick pad for Cris Cyborg. Look at the state of him omg.
“Fat midget novice. @HenryCejudo u are a little fat midget novice.”
Following a video of McGregor hitting pads as he trains for his UFC return this year, it was Cejudo’s turn to fire insults.
He remarked: ““Your hands are down and your distance is off. Stay away from them yes men. Just a tip from the GOAT.”
Cejudo, who won titles at the 125lb flyweight division and as a 135lb bantamweight fighter, retired in 2020.
But he teased a comeback as high as the 155lb lightweight division McGregor campaigns in.
Cejudo said: “The same reason why you let people chew that front leg @thenotoriousmma is the same reason why I would stop you.
“What do you say I make my comeback at 155?”
