In a video uploaded, Bill Burr can be heard saying, “Your wife is in my Dm’s…..And Dustin said yeah, he was grabbing my gloves. He’s a dirtbag. I mean that’s the first time I felt like, I saw like. Because I usually say all kinds of crazy s**t. And then afterward they are so nice.”

He further added, “That’s the only time, I can’t really remember where it sounded like pre-fight hype. Now, the two of them are the greatest promoters ever, but I like people going he went too far, he don’t say things about his wife, it’s what the f**k he talking about.”
They say all kinds of crazy or, like you know; he said he was going to murder me. It’s like, well, he didn’t say he was going to eat your children. He didn’t say he was going to f**k you until you love me. You know there’s a lot much crazier s**t that has been said.”

Speaking of that fight, Burr said that he does not watch much of the UFC. He also mentioned that he is part Irish and spoke about Conor.
Burr further said that both he and McGregor got red hair and that is one reason he wants to root for him. Burr said, “I wanna root for this guy but he’s such a c**t.”
Conor McGregor never reacted to these statements. Not only did McGregor win the fight against Mendes, but he also defeated Jose Aldo and Eddie Alvarez for the UFC featherweight and lightweight championships, respectively, becoming the first fighter to hold two belts simultaneously.
