Justin Gaethje, Jon Jones among others mock Conor McGregor after his TKO loss against Dustin Poirier

Needless to say, McGregor’s trash talk ahead of UFC 264 crossed several boundaries, with the Notorious sending alarming threats to Dustin Poirier. The most notable being that Poirier would leave on a stretcher, however, after everything was said and done, it was McGregor who left on a stretcher.

Fighters like Justin Gaethje, Jon Jones, Ben Askren took to Twitter to share their thoughts. While Gaethje mocked McGregor and shared a clown emoji, Jones blasted both the fighters for still talking trash after the fight had concluded.

Crazy to think that at the end of the weigh in Conor said he would be taken out on a stretcher. And now Conor gets taken out on a stretcher. Man this game we play is so crazy!!!! Hats off to the Diamond of Lafayette!! @DustinPoirier
