Conor McGregor took to social media to post a leg break meme that featured former UFC champion, Chris Weidman. He addressed the meme on his Won't Back Down podcast.
Chris Weidman broke his leg at UFC 261 back in April. Anderson Silva broke his back in 2013.

“He just put up some meme thing, I guess, you know,” Weidman said. “It’s a picture of me face down after I broke my leg, Anderson Silva with him screaming in pain when he broke his leg, and then it’s a picture of Conor McGregor. His leg’s broken. He’s talking to Joe Rogan. And he writes something like, ‘It’s not about what happens to you in life. It’s about how you deal with it moving forward.’ And it’s kind of like a slap in the face to me and Anderson Silva, like he handled pain and adversity in that moment better than we did.”
Chris Weidman then went on to go after the former UFC champion. He had many issues with Conor McGregor as a whole.
“I think you summed that up perfect. I just don’t know, like, you’ve got kids. You’ve got people who look up to you. How do you explain this to your kids? The way you acted, you know, punching this old guy in the face, then the DJ; it doesn’t stop. ‘Oh, I’m sorry to this guy. Then I’m sorry to that guy,” Weidman said. “You know, then I’m saying this about Khabib’s dad and Khabib’s mom and then this about Poirier’s wife.’ He has gone as low as you could possibly go – When it comes to dirtbag status, just the lowest of the low.”
It's obvious UFC fighters are starting to resent Conor McGregor. Chris Weidman can be added to that list after the meme debacle.
