JAKE PAUL said Conor McGregor is ‘falling apart’ and urged the UFC star to drink calcium as ‘his bones are f***ing breaking’.
The YouTuber-turned prizefighter has continued his one-sided war of words with the Irishman, who in July broke the tibia bone in his leg.
McGregor is eyeing a UFC return this year but had fans fearing for the worst following a few bizarre social media posts after nights out in his Black Forge pub.
The ex-UFC champion, 33, promised fans he will undergo ‘complete abstention’ from his whiskey and stout liquids ‘very soon’ to begin full-training.
But Paul, 25, responded to reporters: “I don’t give a s*** about Conor.
“I just want to fight him and smack him in the head – in that sense I hope that he can win some fights so that we can actually fight.
“But the guy is a grown-ass man, he needs to figure out his life; it seems to be falling apart from what I can tell.
“Obviously, everything’s through a lens, we don’t know what he’s going through actually.”

Paul mocked that McGregor should instead be necking milk to strengthen the bones he broke in his last fight.
He said: “That’s clearly one of his many problems. And get in the gym, and drink calcium because your bones are f*****g breaking, man.”
Paul in 2020, having beaten only online rival ‘AnEsonGib’ and ex-NBA star Nate Robinson, 37, offered McGregor $50million to fight.
He has since beaten retired MMA welterweight Ben Askren, 37, and ex-UFC champ Tyron Woodley, 39, on points and knockout.
McGregor suffered his horror leg break in the first round of his trilogy bout with Dustin Poirier, 33, and has since had surgery to mend the injury.
