Conor McGregor and Henry Cejudo are having a go at one another on social media.

After the fight, McGregor hopped on social media and posted a video reacting to Sterling vs. Cejudo. The "Notorious" one claimed he bet money on Sterling. He then mocked Cejudo's stance and sarcastically offered his own advice. McGregor posted the video in response to Cejudo telling media members that he wouldn't train the Irishman due to his beef with Ali Abdelaziz and Khabib Nurmagomedov. 

Cejudo caught wind of McGregor's diss and he responded on Twitter.

"Hey @TheNotoriousMMA Your grappling is so you bad you can’t even submit a clean urine sample. I’ve seen more intimidating men on a can of Bud Light."

Cejudo is weighing his options following the loss to Sterling. During his post-fight interview with UFC color commentator Joe Rogan, Cejudo said his goal was to fight UFC Featherweight Champion Alexander Volkanovski, but with his loss to Sterling, the path to the 145-pound gold is gone.

During the UFC 288 post-fight press conference, "Triple C" said that whether he fights again or retires for good depends on which fights makes sense and how much he'd be paid.
