Whenever UFC champion Conor McGregor books a fight, fight fans are the lucky recipients of months of pre-fight drama and spectacle.
This month’s McGregor vs. Mayweather fight is no different. In fact it’s the most pre-fight drama we’ve ever seen ahead of a Conor McGregor fight.
Not only has Conor picked up the trash-talk with his opponent, but he’s even trashed his own teammate Paulie Malignaggi.
The two now have a very public rivalry, after several training images were leaked on-line showing Conor getting the better of Paulie. This sent Paulie into a tailspin of anger, and prompted his immediate exit from the training champ.
With Showtime cameras on scene, we now have a quick little clip of the first time Paulie and Conor met, and it wasn’t always so bad.
