We highly doubt Beelzebub can throw a left straight that’s as devastating as Conor McGregor’s.
It was inevitable that Conor McGregor’s lighthearted comments about Jesus Christ would land him in trouble. When the Notorious was asked in a recent interview how he would fare in a fight against the Christian saviour, he gave the following response:
“I tell you what, there’s not a man alive that can beat me. But Jesus ain’t alive so I don’t fucking know so maybe he could come back from the dead. I’d still whoop his ass.”
Fellow UFC featherweight and devout Christian Zubaira Tukhugov is the latest fighter to fire back at McGregor over his blasphemous comments. The Russian fighter went on a bizarre rant in an interview with lastround.ru, in which he compared the featherweight champion to the devil. (Translation courtesy of Bloody Elbow)
“He is the devil. He and his tattoos and looks like hell. I’m tired of it, and protect its Muslims, particularly the Chechens. I felt very uncomfortable, because it offends Isa (Jesus in Arabic) – our prophet.”
“He and the Orthodox too. And then how to respect him and root for him !? Especially Muslims. If he insults a prophet, he must be punished for it. I was hurt and I said so. How can you respect and love such people? I do not envy him or hate him as a champion.”
Is he looking for a red panty night as well?
