Lamar Jackson Used Perfect Conor McGregor Meme to Roast Mike Florio After Ravens’ Win Over 49ers

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson did a victory lap after his team’s dominant win over the San Francisco 49ers on Monday night and didn’t do so quietly. While on X, formerly known as Twitter, Jackson saw how his team highlighted a clip from Pro Football Talk’s Mike Florio where he said that San Francisco was going to “kick the s--t out of Baltimore” and decided to have some fun with it.  

Jackson simply reposted the video with a classic meme from MMA fighter Connor McGregor, saying, “Who the f--- is that guy?!” 

In the full clip, Florio went on to say, “If it’s a Super Bowl preview, the Super Bowl’s gonna suck. Because the 49ers—as long as those guys are healthy—they’re gonna run over everyone.” He couldn’t have been more wrong.  

The Ravens and 49ers are considered the favorites to represent their respective conferences in the Super Bowl, leading many fans to believe this was a preview of the big game. At least Florio was half right. It was a blowout. 

Baltimore handily won 33–19, with San Francisco’s final seven points coming in garbage time. Quarterback Brock Purdy, who is considered an MVP favorite, threw four interceptions and didn’t get to finish the game after suffering a hard hit. Jackson, meanwhile, finished with 252 passing yards and two touchdowns to improve his team’s record to 12–3 while the 49ers dropped to 11–4 in the home loss.
