“That Whiskey Tastes Like Proper S**t”- Conor McGregor Faces the Wrath of Ex-WBC Champ Weeks After Legendary Boxer’s Demands for a Boxing Fight

Conor McGregor is no longer the Irishman who instills fear in the hearts of his opponents. The former Lightweight champion had stepped away from the UFC Octagon after he went through a bad patch in his career. However, he is still one of the most popular and respected fighters in the UFC.

McGregor is currently the proud owner of Proper No. Twelve Irish Whiskey and is looking to grow his business, worldwide, ambitiously. He is also a father of three and is expecting another baby soon. However, the fight in him still moves him, as he continued his beef with former four-time world boxing champion, Carl Froch.

‘Improper’ No. Twelve – Former Boxing Legend bashes Conor McGregor and his whiskey brand

Former UFC Lightweight champion Conor McGregor has been beefing with four-time retired boxing champion Carl Froch for a long time. Though it is unclear who started this or when this beef between them started, McGregor did come after the retired boxer on Social Media. Carl Froch retaliated, questioning McGregor’s boxing skills in an interview. The two have since been beefing over social media, with each fighter describing how they would ‘brutally defeat’ the other one.

The former UFC Lightweight fighter recently said he would ‘slap’ the four-time world champion around, were the two to actually fight.

Froch recently dissed Conor McGregor’s whiskey brand, after disclosing that he had a lot of ‘admiration’ for the UFC fighter.

“He’s made himself a fortune. I’ve got a lot of admiration for him. He’s earned his money the hardest way. He’s got his whiskey brand too but everyone says that whiskey tastes like proper s**t by the way.“, said Froch. 

Froch also came after British promoter Eddie Hearn who was seen laughing at what Conor McGregor had to say and said he would like to ‘roll around’ with the UFC fighter. “I’d probably have a roll around with Conor McGregor. I’d like Conor McGregor to get into the boxing ring because he’s running his mouth a bit lately. And he’s got Eddie Hearn cheerleading him in the background, laughing at every crap joke he cracks, that’s getting a bit boring to listen to. I think that’d be a good fight.” said the former boxing champ.

Froch doesn’t want to get back into professional boxing. The retired boxer is in search of an ‘easy win’ and a big payout, which he thinks Conor McGregor is best suited for.

McGregor’s Latest Controversies – How many fights actually await him?

McGregor failed to join the USADA pool, thereby failing to make his return to the UFC to face his TUF rival Michael Chandler. This led to McGregor facing severe criticism from fans and the UFC world in general. He had also punched and hospitalized the Miami Heat’s mascot at the NBA finals, leading to major backlashes from fans, yet again.

Fans are desperate to see the former Lightweight champion come back to fighting. According to McGregor, he is already training in full swing and that he would return to fighting soon.

But who will his next opponent be? Will it be a title shot against his former rival Khabib Nurmagomedov’s protege, Islam Makhachev? Will Michael Chandler get his chance to dance the Irish ‘jig’? Or will McGregor foray into boxing, once again and dance with the former boxing champ Carl Froch?
