While the two Lafayette legends have proven they can entertain in the octagon, they are now showing that they can be a dynamic duo from a media perspective.
Following the likes of Lafayette fighters Dustin Poirier, Daniel Cormier, and his coach Tim Credeur, AJ "The Ghost" Fletcher (9-0-0) is making his official UFC debut this Saturday (March 12) on UFC Fight Night.
The local UFC fighter is scheduled to ride in a Lafayette Mardi Gras parade next Tuesday and he will follow that up with a meet-and-greet at a local restaurant.
The Lafayette legend recently spoke to the idea that he may never fight in the lightweight division and is now in a back-and-forth on Twitter with a old foe.
Conor McGregor is once again stirring the pot with Dustin Poirier on social media after being defeated by "The Diamond" twice in-a-row. McGregor continues to bring up Poirier's wife online, as he hopes to get back to fighting shape after surgery.
