McGregor has caused quite a stir with his comments…

Conor McGregor’s rematch with Nate Diaz is just two weeks away and as such, the amount of press commitments for the UFC star has increased dramatically, meaning he’s been in the headlines even more than usual.

You can watch his full fight with Nate Diaz here.

He made some comments regarding Brock Lesnar and the WWE recently that caused a bit of a commotion among fans of wrestling and also some of the wrestlers on the WWE roster.

In the UFC 202 conference call on Friday, he stated: “I haven’t really thought about [fighting in the WWE]. For the most part, those WWE guys are p*ssies. They’re messed up p*ssies if you ask me.”

He then followed it up with this tweet earlier today…

Obviously, there were a lot of disgruntled WWE fans at his comments, but it also affected some other famous wrestling stars, including Kurt Angle.

And Roman Reigns…

We wouldn’t want to mess with Kurt Angle, the Olympic gold medalist from 1996, who previously stated that if the UFC was as big in his prime as it is now, he would have made the transition across to MMA.

And who can forget his famous showdowns with The Rock…
