Recently, Conor McGregor and his camp have been making a lot of statements. First, McGregor’s coach John Kavanagh said that his charge wanted to fight Paulie Malignaggi in the UFC.

So with all these shots being taken at boxing and himself, it’s unsurprising that McGregor’s former sparring partner got his dander up.
