Conor McGregor suffered a shock defeat in the early hours of Sunday morning when he was knocked out for the first time in his career by Justin Poirier at UFC 257.
The Dubliner was floored in the second-round of the Abu Dhabi showdown leading to the devastating loss.
Pictures of the dazed Notorious lying on the canvass with mouth wide open and eyes were beamed around the world and it wasn't long before the internet did what the internet does by making hilarious memes.
Some of the cheeky digs even managed to mix the week's other hugely popular meme of Bernie Sanders wrapped up against the elements of the inauguration of US President Joe Biden.
Others went back to some classic Disney movies for memespiration.
And some fight fans didn't even need to embellish the picture, sticking to some witty captions instead.
The genius memes add insult to injury for McGregor, who was spotted on crutches following his stunning loss.
After the defeat McGregor opened up on the injury, claiming his entire leg was dead and that his calf resembled an American football such was the swelling.
McGregor and Poirier went back and forth as the Notorious battled back from a successful takedown to score some success with shoulder strikes in the clinch.
But the vicious calf kicks that followed from Poirier signalled the beginning of the end for the Dublin fighter as he was put on the back foot.
And pressed against the cage, Poirier was able to tee off on McGregor until a lovely left hook floored McGregor as the referee stepped in to end it.
At the post-fight press conference, McGregor also responded to Khabib Nurmagomedov's criticism of him after his defeat.
When asked by reporters in the post-fight interview about the Russian's message, McGregor hit back at Khabib.
He said: "My team has been the team since day one, I've not changed anything.
"It is what it is, respect the athletes - and that's the character of the man behind the mask.
"What does he want to do? Does he want to come back or not?"
