Conor McGregor told Ryan Garcia to ‘get your head together or kill yourself’ in a now-deleted social media post following the boxer’s failed drug test.
It was alleged this week Garcia failed anti-doping tests the day before and the day after his shock win over Devin Haney at the end of April. The 25-year-old tested positive for banned substance ostarine – having also fought 3lbs over the required weight limit on the night.
Garcia and his team have strongly denied allegations of cheating with the figher insisting ‘I have never taken a steroid in my life’.
Haney was floored three times as he lost in New York with the previously undefeated fighter and his father and trainer, Bill Haney, furious with this week’s developments.
In a post shared on X, McGregor sympathised with Haney and his father, insisting if he wads Haney Snr, Garcia would be ‘dead no matter what for doing that’.
In the post, the Dubliner also took aim at UFC star Sean O’Malley who has previously tested positive for ostarine, although it was later deemed the levels on his system were consistent with taking a contaminated supplement that was out of his control.
McGregor blasted both fighters in his social media rant, ending it with a chilling message to Garcia who has previously suffered with his mental health and depression.
‘Cheated the weight and was juiced, lifetime ban,’ McGregor said.
‘Sad to see, sad to say. Sad and a bit sick. Don’t come near me if I see you ever Ryan Garcia. I am actually disgusted.
‘This ostarine reminds me of Sean O’Malley was on that as well. I don’t like this, I’ll bust yous both up, do you want a spar I will set flight right now for you both for a full on spar each.
‘Hotel, black forge inn the lot. #LetsSparOMalley and #Garcia two little ostarine heads I’ll ride you both like yous are ostriches.
‘Wtf is up. What do you think you are at? If I was Haney’s dad you’re dead no matter what for doing that. Crazy.
‘What the f**k happened to you, you little fool. Get your head together cos I’m gonna smash it in with elbows if you don’t.
‘Fair play Devin well done. Your performance has just become even more heroic! Bravo.
‘GET YOUR HEAD TOGETHER OR KILL YOURSELF.’
Haney meanwhile has insisted he is not interested in a rematch with Garcia.
The American suffered the first defeat of his career that night with his team calling for the fight to be ruled a no-content, therefore removing the loss from his otherwise perfect record.
