Conor McGregor (Insider)
Conor McGregor and Daniel Cormier have been feuding for more than two weeks
All hell broke loose when Conor McGregor tweeted: “Covid is good and father is evil?”, in reference to the death of Khabib Nurmagomedov’s father.
Khabib’s dear friend Daniel Cormier tore into McGregor for his insensitive comments, and the pair have been going at it since then.
It looks like their episode will not come to an end, after UFC Hall of Famer and current analyst Michael Bisping warned McGregor to not pick a fight with Cormier.
Bisping went on to say that DC would piece him up, even if he was in his 2016 form.
Here is what ‘The Count’ had to say in his ‘Believe You Me’ podcast:
“Careful what you wish for. Careful who you’re picking fights with — because I’m not disrespecting Conor McGregor — but I don’t care what Conor McGregor it is, whether it’s double-champ Conor McGregor (or what). DC is gonna f*cking pull you limb from limb. He could do it one-handed, he could do it with one eye, two eyes, no eyes. He could do it after 25 Modelos. That ain’t a fight. That is murder, that is assault, somebody call the cops!” [via BJPENN.com]
Conor McGregor lashed into Michael Bisping for his comments on him. He brought up Bisping bowing out of the sport with back-to-back losses, highlighting the fight against Kelvin Gastelum in 2017, when he was knocked out badly.
Calling Bisping a nobody on Sirius XM, McGregor wrote:
“Bisping is a nobody on Sirius XM. Rushed back to competition after being dropped/strangled and then gets shotgun slept by Gastelum’s left hand. Devastating. Even though I collect commission on all of his fights, I still said to the team to pull the Gast fight. I knew it was coming.”
McGregor is currently recovering from his ankle surgery. He is expected to be back by 2022. The Irishman is also serving a six-month medical suspension that gets over only in the second week of January.
As for Bisping, he has found himself a role as the color commentator for the UFC, and the fans love him.
