Well, trust Conor McGregor to deliver befitting responses in the typical McGregor fashion. He posted an image from The Simpsons showing Smithers, labeled as Khabib, covering his eyes. In contrast, two women labeled as ring girls Brittney Palmer and Arianny Celeste, dance around him in their underwear.

Without words, McGregor counterattacked, letting the image speak for itself.

He posted the image on Twitter amidst answering his fan's questions. While answering questions asked, he hinted that he would be returning to the octagon. This follows his recovery from a broken leg he recently suffered in a fight against Dustin Poirer.
