UFC megastar Conor McGregor has been having some issues with his sparring partners as of late. The fighter’s most recent sparring partner, Paul Malignaggi, recently departed from the fighter’s camp following the release of a series of photos from training. Now, it would appear that one of the UFC champion’s earlier sparring partners has come forward with some news.
Former sparring partner to Conor McGregor, Chris Van Heerden, recently took a moment to be interviewed by Fight Hype. During the interview the fighter revealed that he was never payed for his training with Conor McGregor.
“People need to know this…Conor didn’t pay me one thing…I didn’t get anything back from Conor’s team…I wasn’t okay with it…for about 2 or 3 weeks, I was in the worst place,” Chris Van Heerden stated.
