UFC Fan gets own back on Conor McGregor after being cropped out of photo with The Notorious

Well played

For any UFC fan there can’t be many better feelings than bumping into The Notorious himself as he’s on the verge of making history.

So when 18-year-old Erin Safran and her brothers spotted Conor McGregor out and about in NYC last week they seized their chance to grab some selfies with the UFC champ.

By all accounts Conor was an absolute gent during the encounter.

Speaking to BuzzFeed News Erin said: “He was so lovely about taking the picture with my little brother and I and then later on, my older brother”.

And as you do with such photos, you bang them straight onto social media to make all your mates feel a bit jealous.

Which is just what the teenager from Brookyn did on Instagram, tagging in McGregor.

Conor appears to have seen the pic and fancied it for his own Instagram account. But not before doing some selective editing.

Erin got a shock when she saw the pic with her cropped out and a simple caption saying ‘Gucci mustard’.

This is how she reacted:

However she later decided to get her own back on The Notorious with some selective cropping of her own and using his own famous words against him.

She captioned the Instagram post “I want to take this opportunity to apologize… to absolutely nobody.” @thenotoriousmma.

Well played, Erin. Well played.
