Coach John Kavanagh hasn’t spoken to McGregor since loss to Khabib at UFC 229

Conor McGregor’s in-depth breakdown of his loss to Khabib Nurmagomedov at UFC 229 led some fans to believe that the Irishman was criticizing his cornermen for a bad strategy.

“Listen to nobody but yourself on your skill set,” McGregor posted on Instagram following his submission loss to Nurmagomedov. “I am the master of this. I must take my own advice.”

When quizzed by this on a recent episode of the True Geordie podcast, McGregor’s longtime coach and friend, John Kavanagh, said he didn’t know how to interpret ‘The Notorious’s’ comments because he hasn’t spoken to him since UFC 229.
