There were some heated tweets between Olympic boxing silver medalist, Kenny Egan, and Irish UFC fighter, Conor McGregor, on Twitter yesterday.
Egan tweeted a picture mentioning McGregor's Twitter handle, @TheNotoriousMMA, which he said was just a bit of craic. McGregor did not take it that way though.

@kenegan30 Do I know you personally to have the 'craic'? No. So keep your mouth shut and keep me out of your tweets
