It does not appear that the rivalry between Conor McGregor and Paulie Malignaggi will end anytime soon. The 'Magic Man' recently took a dig at the Irishman in an interview.
"At this point, betting against Conor McGregor is pretty easy because...the odds are gonna be a little bit slanted because his fan base is so dominant...they make the odds more even than they should [be]. This guy has lost six out of seven fights. The odds shouldn't be close against him fighting anybody, even my neighbour's dog, it's a Shih Tzu. At this point, he is an underdog against anybody but somehow his fan base are always betting on him, so they've kept the odds close enough to where people can make really good money if they are smart. Even againt Floyd [Mayweather], he was only a six-to-one underdog. They [the odds] should have been so bad that nobody was taking action," Paulie Malignaggi said.
