Conor McGregor has furiously responded to Floyd Mayweather’s racism claims.
The boxer made the claims but Conor has rejected them in a new interview with Canadian martial arts journalist, Ariel Helwani.
The interview took place at the UFC high performance centre and McGregor discussed the claims stating he “would not disrespect any race”.
“I never labelled him a monkey or any African American a monkey, I would not disrespect any race like that.
“His people know that, he knows that too. If I was to label him after any animal, it would be the rat, I wouldn’t even label him after the great Ape.
“He is a rat and a weasel because that is what a rat and a weasel does, tries to manipulate words and create something that is not there.
“It is a weak move on his part to try and instigate something, but that is the individual he is.”
