Conor McGregor is back at it on social media. This time his target is MMA super manager Ali Abdelaziz — Fightful has you covered on their verbal spat and all the other viral moments on social media from around the world of MMA.

Conor McGregor Takes Aim At Ali Abdelaziz

Dark Side Of The Cage To Premiere In January, Will Cover Ronda Rousey, Matt Hughes, Kimbo Slice, More

Over the weekend former UFC featherweight and lightweight champion Conor McGregor decided to take shots at Ali Abdelaziz.

Abdelaziz is the most popular agent in all of MMA and most notably is the manager for undefeated UFC lightweight champion Khabib Nurmagomedov.

McGregor and the Abdelaziz/Nurmagomedov camp have no shortage of bad blood for one another, stemming from McGregor's infamous bus attack when searching for the Russian-born champion ahead of UFC 223.

Their rivalry culminated during the UFC 229 main event which saw "The Eagle" submit McGregor to retain his UFC lightweight championship...but the fight didn't stop after Nurmagmedov got his hand raised. Nurmagomedov immediately jumped the cage and spilled into the crowd where he went directly for McGregor's friend and training partner Dillon Danis while a member of Nurmagomedov's team Rizvan Magomedov jumped into the cage and appeared to sucker punch the brash Irishmen.

Ever since that fateful October night McGregor has been looking for revenge which most recently included a Twitter attack by the "Notorious" one.

McGregor’s tweets have since been deleted, but screenshots of the back and forth can be seen here (h/t adjarasport.tv):

Rafael Fiziev Shows Off New Technique

Standout UFC lightweight prospect Rafael Fiziev took to Twitter to show-off some new vicious ground and pound techniques.

Fiziev, 27 holds a 3-1 record in the UFC and is currently on a three-fight win streak. He most recently competed at UFC 256 where he viciously knocked out fan-favorite Renato Moicano.

Elias Theodorou Shows Off Gorgeous Mane

Former UFC middleweight (and occasional Invicta FC ring boy) Elias Theodorou responded to a fan on Twitter who was rightfully jealous of the Canadian's luscious locks.

Mike Tyson's Son Shows Off Impressive Pad Work

When you are the son of the baddest man on the planet there's a good chance that you might learn a thing or two from your old man.

In steps Miguel Leon Tyson. The 18-year-old son of the legendary heavyweight champion Mike Tyson did some pad work with his dad over the weekend. "Iron" Mike decided to show off his son's handiwork on Instagram.


Diego Sanchez Hints At Having An OnlyFans

UFC lightweight mainstay Diego Sanchez certainly knows how to keep his name in the news. This time "The Nightmare" quite frankly gave some of his fans just that... nightmare when he hinted at starting an OnlyFans account.

Let's all hope Diego's just having a bit of fun and this isn't the case.

Conor McGregor Details Preparation For UFC 257

The UFC's next pay-per-view offering comes on January 23 in the form of UFC 257.

Conor McGregor stands across the octagon from Dustin Poirier once again after the pair had already fought at UFC 178, a match in which McGregor would take over Poirier via first-round TKO.

The "Notorious" one took to Instagram to go into slight detail about his upcoming bout:

Arnold Allen and Giga Chikadze Tease A Fight
