Conor McGregor slams Floyd Mayweather for ‘embarrassing’ sideshow fight booked with Logan Paul

Conor McGregor rarely bites his tongue and that definitely includes when he’s taking aim at a former opponent like Floyd Mayweather.

On Thursday, Mayweather got into a physical altercation with YouTube celebrity turned boxer Jake Paul following a press conference where the undefeated former multi-division champion was promoting his upcoming exhibition bout with Logan Paul.

While Logan is the one fighting Mayweather, it was Jake who snatched a hat off the head of the 44-year-old boxing legend, which then led to mayhem backstage at the press conference as security guards intervened with media swarming to get photos and videos of the incident.
