Conor McGregor has deleted a video of himself reacting to Max Holloway's UFC victory after it was branded "embarrassing".
The Irish star has been called out frequently by his fellow former featherweight champion in the build-up to the Hawaiian's victory against Yair Rodriguez this weekend.
McGregor posted a video of himself pacing up and down while topless in front of the TV moments before Holloway's fight began.
But McGregor has now removed the video from social media after it was mocked by fans.
One fan wrote: "This is embarrassing as f***, the man is squaring up to him from his living room."
Another commented: "This is cringe. Looks like a weird guy in his living room after a few too many cans."
A third fan tweeted: "What on earth is he doing?"
Holloway cemented his status as the leading featherweight contender after defeating Rodriguez in a brutal three-round battle.
The pair were taken to hospital together by ambulance for observation after suffering a number of cuts and bruises.
And Holloway is yet to be stopped by strikes during his UFC career losing to submission against Dustin Poirier, and twice to a decision against Alexander Volkanovski.
He has used this to heat up the rivalry with McGregor by claiming he is "undefeated" immediately after the fight, in response to McGregor's previous claim he has never been knocked out.
Both fighters have taken to social media to claim they are the best boxer in the UFC, with any repeat showdown likely to take place in the lightweight division.
However it appears unlikely that bout will be next with Holloway set to pursue a trilogy meeting with Volkanovski in a bid to become a two-time featherweight champion.
Who would win a rematch; Conor McGregor or Max Holloway? Let us know in the comments section below
McGregor is currently facing time out of the cage after suffering a broken leg injury against Poirier in his last bout at UFC 264.
And he has faced a significant slide down the 155lb rankings currently sitting in ninth position behind the likes of Islam Makhachev and Michael Chandler.
Several people within the sport have questioned whether McGregor can return to the heights of his lofty career when he frequently topped record-selling PPV bills.
But UFC president Dana White fully expects McGregor to headline his returning UFC bill, labelling him as one of the company's biggest superstars.
"He's still one of the top ten guys in the world. I mean, he's still one of the top ten best guys in the world," he told Pardon My Take.
"It would depend on who he's fighting but yeah, Conor [McGregor] coming back is a headliner."
