Conor McGregor has always opted to tweet and let the verbal wars commence on the social media platform. Recently, the former UFC champion challenged Paul McGrath and PJ Gallagher to a match. Although he declared that any money received would go to charity, fans did not fail to notice the age of the ones challenged by McGregor. Furthermore, the UFC fans decided to remind McGregor of his deed from 2019, calling it irony, as he accused McGrath of attacking an elderly man in his sixties.

Nonetheless, McGregor’s challenge did not go unnoticed. Moreover, as the argument between McGrath’s son and the ‘Notorious’ went on, fans came to the comments section to display their absolute confusion.

Back in 2019, a video of the highest-paid UFC star punching an old man in an Irish bar circled all over the internet. McGregor bought a drink of Proper No 12 whiskey for everyone in the bar. However, an elderly person denied the drink. Although McGregor offered the cup twice by putting it in front of the man, he still denied it. That was when the problem began.

McGregor lost his cool and threw a left directly at the old man’s face. Immediately, two men came in to hold the fighter back. Although the policemen opened an investigation, McGregor wasn’t charged with any offense. Furthermore, the entire incident went down as soon as it had risen, only to be dug up 3 years later.
