Conor McGregor needed just four letters to give his reaction to one of the greatest upsets in UFC history tonight.
The Irishman was watching from Dublin, opting to stay up overnight to watch his former division finally be unified at the iconic UFC White House event. Justin Gaethje managed to make Ilia Topuria quit on his stool after four gruesome rounds, brutalizing the Georgian-born Spaniard to claim undisputed gold.

‘The Highlight’ stopped Ilia Topuria to finally become a UFC champion at the White House.
McGregor is training for his own comeback, which takes place on July 11 at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas at UFC 329. He will rematch Max Holloway 13 years after their initial meeting in a bout that headlines International Fight Week.

Conor McGregor’s four-letter verdict after UFC Freedom 250
It was a night of knockouts at the White House tonight, with every single bout ending in a TKO or KO including the main event. UFC Freedom 250 delivered in terms of spectacle, star power and fight quality – most of all in the main event.
Conor McGregor was clearly impressed with what he saw, despite sharing rivalries with both of the men involved. He didn’t have much to say, simply writing on X: “Aw ye!”
The Irishman has beef with both Gaethje and Topuria, having gone back-and-forth with both publicly. He has always believed the Spaniard to be overrated, and had pushed for a fight with the American during his original run at lightweight before suffering an injury.
