Things turned sour between the pair last year when pictures and footage of sparring sessions leaked with a disputed knockdown of Malignaggi fuelling the feud
PAULIE MALIGNAGGI has hit back at Conor McGregor’s by comparing the UFC star to a 'pinata' the pair continue their feud.
This rivalry has been brewing since last summer when Malignaggi became McGregor’s sparring partner before the Irishman cashed in on a money-grab boxing cameo against Floyd Mayweather.
Things turned sour when the UFC star leaked pictures and footage of the spars with a disputed knockdown of Malignaggi, 38, prompting the Brooklyn boxer to leave Team McGregor’s camp.
Recently rumours circled that negotiations for the pair to meet in the boxing ring was underway - though Malignaggi later denied the suggestion.
In a recent Instagram video, where McGregor, can be seen confronting Malignaggi last year, the former two-weight UFC champion took aim at The Magic Man and Khabib Nurmagomedov, 30.
In the post McGregor, 30, said: “I like Paulie Malignaggi” - before then calling him and Nurmagomedov ‘broke b*****es.”
Malignaggi has since replied to this post, as he uploaded a video where McGregor can be seen telling Nurmagomedov during their UFC 229 fight ‘It’s only business’.
The reasoning for the post was a clear attempt for Malligangi to suggest McGregor was hypocritical.
Malignaggi said: “For a guy that posts about b**** or b*****n an awful lot, it seems this guy doesn't have a proper understanding of what the word means.
“So I found a recent clip of him exemplifying its definition in one cowardly act.
"'Let the record show' that I do like Conor McGregor, everyone loves a piñata and him being combat sports official piñata there's plenty of entertainment there.
“I give him credit though. For a guy with absolutely NO BALLS, the woof tickets he sold to all you stupid motherf*****s in recent years is amazing.
“He's got a great talent for being a great bull***t artist.
“(You) can be rich, but you (definitely) a b***h you cokehead lush. So don't let that s*** you ingested on your Friday night cloud your memory of reality.”
