Conor McGregor is taking his psychological warfare to new heights.
So things appear to be heating up as we edge closer to the showdown between Floyd Mayweather and Conor McGregor. While some were thoroughly entertained by the world tour event that saw Conor McGregor and Floyd Mayeweather face off in four major cities in four days, some were left feeling disappointed, many claiming that the event was all scripted. But if things felt fixed before, McGregor’s recent stunt may have turned the dial up on this n brewing rivalry.
A recent Instagram post by professional basketball player and Golden State Warriors team member Draymond Green has sparked an unexpected beef with Conor McGregor. The post in questions features Conor McGregor wearing a Golden State Warriors jersey. This led to some interesting exchanges between Green and McGregor on Instagram. Check out the original post below as well as McGregor’s response.
While it may have appeared like a random act, it was in fact a surgical strike by the UFC star. Conor McGregor mentions that the jersey he’s sporting is that of C.J. Watson, a former member of the Golden State Warriors. Watson was linked to the Floyd Mayweather domestic abuse case between the boxer and his former partner Josie Harris. The quote below describes the incidnet between Harris and Mayweather in a bit more detail.
Harris says she awoke with Mayweather screaming and grabbing her hair. She says he’d read affectionate text messages between her and NBA basketball player C.J. Watson, described in her book draft as her “summer love.”
Conor McGregor clearly has some tricks up his sleeve. The most likely case is that he’s saving some of his most helacious barbs for fight week of the epic showdown on August 26.
