Ben Askren has been lighting up MMA social media since it was first reported he could be headed to the UFC, and now the galaxy class grappler has taken a verbal shot at Conor McGregor.
Following reports that the UFC and ONE Championship are working on a ‘trade’ involving Demetrious Johnson and Askren, the latter has exchanged tweets with several, UFC fighters.
Now, “Funky” has also fired off this tweet at none other than Conor McGregor:
Obviously I have called out @TheNotoriousMMA yet, but you know he has way too much money to take one of the whippings I’m giving out. So why bother?
