Snoop Dogg's NSFW rant on Conor McGregor: WHY is rapper still on UFC's payroll?

Snoop Dogg tarnished his image with his nonsensical comments as the combat sports world showed respect to both McGregor and Floyd Mayweather after their fight on Saturday.

American rapper Snoop Dogg has completely lost it and we cannot understand why. For those unaware, the 45-year-old hip hop star, who has received numerous accolades and awards in his career since 1994, is contracted with the UFC as a commentator.

Snoop is a play-by-play commentator alongside UFC veteran Urijah Faber at the "Dana White's Tuesday Night Contender Series", available exclusively to UFC Fight Pass members.

The lanky personality took to Instagram after Saturday's night big boxing fight between Floyd Mayweather and Conor McGregor to lash out on the UFC star, referring him as a 'punk a$$' and hurling a lot of profanities.

Why Snoop? We know you like Mayweather and the Money team, but this was something shameful.

McGregor might not be responding to the nonsensical act of Snoop, but UFC fans and Snoop Dogg fans as well, have condemned it.

UFC welterweight fighters Alan Jouban and Matt Brown have vented their frustration.

A lot of people not speaking up on this topic but I can't be one of those anymore. @danawhite @ufc how can we employ this guy and co-promote the two brands together when all he does is trash our fighters. I grew up loving Snoops music and his cool persona too but he knows nothing about MMA and makes a mockery of the sport. A lot of people give him a pass because its Snoop. But it's more negativity than good that I hear from him daily. He's just getting paid and don't care about @ufc. How he spoke about @dc_mma and others shouldn't allow him a job opening with our company. I'm out!

Colby Covington, who is scheduled to take on Damien Maia in October at a UFC Fight Night event, has also hit back at Snoop Dogg.

Yo @SnoopDogg chill out guy, you ain't tough... And if it were a REAL fight in the streets or @ufc octagon, Floyd gets murdered. https://t.co/wtp9wRW5Xd

This is not the first time meanwhile that the rapper has done something like this.

He made fun of Daniel Cormier's crying face after the former light heavyweight champion suffered a concussion following blows from Jon Jones at UFC 214. Snoop commented that DC was "crying like a b****h". He has drawn the ire of UFC fans, since.
