Professional wrestlers and MMA fighters have often not seen each other eye to eye. MMA fighters have often been deemed to be more skillful in fighting, whereas professional wrestling is seen as fake. These few stereotypes have often raised questions and instigated fights between the athletes of these two sports.

Over the years, several debates have taken place between these two genres of the sport. However, no solid conclusion has come out, as to which is the superior one. Recently, a new debate sparked after an AEW wrestler got into a heated exchange with UFC Fighter, Paddy Pimblett and Conor McGregor.

Recently, Paddy “The Baddy” got involved in an issue with AEW Champion, MJF. The incident took place after MJF claimed that professional wrestling was more dangerous than MMA. After taking shots at Pimblett, and even name taking, Conor McGregor, the Irishman, responded back. MJF had called Paddy Pimblett, a ‘dollar store Conor McGregor.’

McGregor took to Twitter to state that the dollar store McGregor is still worth a million. He wrote, ” A dollar store Conor is still worth millions! Let’s go, young Paddy Pimb! Don’t know who this other clown is.”

However, McGregor’s tweet had an unexpected guest in the form of Terrence McKinney. McKinney stated that McGregor referred to Pimblett as the dollar store version of himself, and if he believed in it.

Pimblett is currently under preparation for his upcoming bout against Jared Gordon at UFC 282 on December 10th at Las Vegas. McGregor, on the other hand, is currently training very hard for his return to UFC.
