Ben Askren Trolls ‘Intoxicated’ Conor McGregor

McGregor

Conor McGregor had a rather bizarre response to the UFC’s newest welterweight trash talker Ben Askren.

Asken was engaged in a dialogue with fellow grappler Chael Sonnen earlier today on social media. Always a pragmatist, the self-proclaimed “truth speaker” fired some truth bullets at McGregor.

“Funky” took the position that Conor was a better social media follow prior to the release of his Irish Whiskey Proper 12.


McGregor would never resist a chance at the limelight but it was his response that was head-scratching .

Askren responded by asking McGregor to truthfully admit if he was intoxicated:

Askren will make his UFC debut against Robbie Lawler at January 26’s UFC 233 from Anaheim, California. 

McGregor, meanwhile, is awaiting his punishment from the NSAC for his UFC 229 brawl. He’s also selling whiskey,  of course.
