Conor McGregor responds to Logan Paul's fight call-out with X-rated rant

Conor McGregor branded Logan Paul "a little fool" after the YouTuber called him out following his win over Dillon Danis.

Paul won the first five rounds against Danis in Manchester last night before the MMA fighter attempted to take down his opponent, a move which sparked an invasion of security guards and a full-on brawl. Danis was disqualified having barely thrown a punch over the preceding 15 minutes with Paul declared the winner.

The YouTuber than launched into a passionate address having been trolled relentlessly by Danis in the build-up to the grudge fight. And he took the opportunity to call-out McGregor who has trained with Danis in Dublin. "Maybe Conor wants to stand up for his b****, I'll fight him next. Where you at little Leprechaun?" he said.

McGregor took to social media to respond, bizarrely claiming: "I was impressed by Dillon Danis" before posting a voice note which said: "Are you not entertained! I was impressed, good shots, [Danis] needs to believe in his shots more and more and let them go, some of them were alright. Some of them he was throwing were alright, he just needed to let them go a bit more. What did your man do anyway, he didn't even wobble him, he didn't even hurt him, you little fool."

McGregor continued to lash out at Paul who had claimed to have struggled to deal with the onslaught of abuse from Danis. "You were in a dark spot?" the Irishman added. "Guess what mate, you're back in a dark spot now, back into the locker room... thinking about all the s*** you've been going through, you're still in a dark spot, you done nothing, up the crew!"

McGregor did, however, call out Paul's fellow YouTuber KSI who was outpointed by Tommy Fury on the same card. The Dubliner took to social media to say: "Ya know what. Me and KSI is an exciting fight. A juicy nixer I used to call them back when I was a plumber now I'm on a lambo yacht he's in a huracan."

McGregor had previously called out KSI while at ringside for Anthony Joshua's win over Robert Helenius in August but had later backtracked on his demands. The 35-year-old has not fought since 2021 when he broke his leg in his trilogy fight against Dustin Poirier.
