And so the Malignaggi vs. McGregor subplot continues.
As you know by now, Paulie Malignaggi - the former two division boxing champion - was a sparring partner for Conor McGregor in preparation for his bout against Floyd Mayweather next week; but Malignaggi left camp after a dispute over sparring and shortly afterwards, Dana White released some video clips showing McGregor seemingly getting the better of the former boxing champion.
Since then, Malignaggi has been laying the groundwork for a future fight between the two and yesterday he went on The Herd with Colin Cowherd where he went into more detail about his sparring with McGregor and claimed that the UFC lightweight champion is having trouble adjusting to the different rule set of boxing and was even docked points for repeatedly fouling during their training.
