Cathal Pendred is quickly becoming the P4P king of UFC Twitter users.

The Irish welterweight is currently in Las Vegas ahead of his upcoming fight with John Howard on the undercard of McGregor vs Mendes UFC 189.

McGregor was originally scheduled to take on Jose Aldo for the featherweight championship on July 11th, but the champion was forced out of the fight after sustaining a fractured rib in training. Chad Mendes duly stepped in to face McGregor with the interim strap going on the line.

Pendred was quick to remind everyone of the noticeable absentee from the main event with an immaculate tweet in the early hours of Wednesday morning.
