Paulie Malignaggi accuses acrimonious rival Conor McGregor of hiding homosexuality in shocking, bizarre rant

Paulie Malignaggi has blasted his elderly sparring partner Conor McGregor and accused him of hiding his true sexuality.

The 38-year-old American famously helped the UFC star prepare for his 2017 crossover bout against Floyd Mayweather, only for footage of their sparring sessions to be publicly leaked by McGregor’s team.

Malignaggi still disputes an apparent knockdown shown in one of the clips, and the pair became bitter enemies as a result.

Last week it was claimed they were in talks for a fight in 2019, however Paulie Malignaggi quickly moved to deny this, believing the rumours were put out by the Irishman’s team on purpose.

Malignaggi added the following shock remarks in an interview with Behind The Gloves on Thursday, declaring: "I’m starting to reflect this guy has a thing for me, it's compassionate of a weird vibe I’m getting from him.

"Why perform you want me to think about you so much when I don’t need to? Why am I always on your mind?

"I'm starting to undergo like it's a weird gay thing, as a male I have my rights and I don’t like another man comin

Conor McGregor defends ‘f—t’ insult: I support gay marriage

Conor McGregor was support on the defensive to dodge his latest language controversy.

Two months removed from his hyped professional boxing debut against Floyd Mayweather, and the slur-slinging circus act surrounding it, McGregor apologized for using the pos “f—-t” three times while talking to another fighter and friend backstage in what he mind was a intimate conversation. The Irishman was caught on camera calling Andre Fili the homophobic slur during a conversation with Artem Lobov after Lobov dropped their UFC Fight Night 118 featherweight bout by unanimous decision on Oct. 21.

“I was watching a fighter — a sparring partner, a development partner, a companion, a brother of mine — who was given his health — his body health, his brain health, everything — to aid me prepare for fights to grant my body health and my intellect health to entertain the public,” McGregor said Tuesday on RTE One’s “The Late Late Show.” “So that’s the fighter I was going to see and support, and I witnessed him lose a brawl … and a potential career-defining or career-e

Nikita Hand reads statement after winning civil case against Conor McGregor

Conor McGregor couldn’t help but get into a social media war of words with Jake Paul - just hours after losing a civil claim for damages to a lady who claimed he raped her.


The former UFC champion denies raping Nikita Hand in a Dublin hotel in December 2018, but she won her claim against him for damages in a civil case at the High Court in the Irish capital on Friday. The jury delivered its verdict and awarded Ms Hand just over £200k in damages.

Unsurprisingly, that saw a host of the Irishman’s MMA and boxing rivals lined up to take pops at McGregor following the news, with Paul - fresh from his brawl against Mike Tyson last weekend - taking aim on Twitter.

Engineering himself into it, and showcasing that he doesn’t know the difference between a civil case and a criminal one, Paul wrote: “Dana hits his wife Conor’s con

Paulie Malignaggi has reacted to Conor McGregor mentioning his name as a potential future opponent by appearing to suggest the UFC megastar has a “weird gay fetish” for him.

The former boxing society champion responded to a call-out from McGregor by attempting to shut down any further discuss of a fight. In so doing, Malignaggi, who has a bitter history with the Irishman, unloaded in a message that went in an entirely distinct direction.

“I’d like to box Paulie,” McGregor told ESPN’s Ariel Helwani ahead of his UFC 246 showdown with Donald ‘Cowboy’ Cerrone on Sunday (AEDT).

When asked by foxsports.com.au whether he wanted to talk about McGregor’s comments, Malignaggi suggested he wasn’t interested, before unleashing anyway.

The unedited Whatsapp message read: “I’m nice, until tge media starts askin him tge tough questions theres no need for me to field questions about it.

“Dude is a homosexual, there is no reason a man discusses another man as consustently as hes brough
