Ronda Rousey praises Conor McGregor for post-fight behavior after UFC 264; McGregor responds

Former champion and UFC Hall of Famer Ronda Rousey had nothing but praise for Conor McGregor’s antics after suffering a broken leg in his fight with Dustin Poirier this past Saturday night.

Just moments after McGregor went down on the canvas following the gruesome injury, he was shouting at officials making sure it was noted that the fight was called off due to a doctor’s stoppage and not because he obviously couldn’t continue on a shattered leg. McGregor then turned his attention to Poirier as he continued to issue death threats and insults aimed at the former interim lightweight champion as well as his wife, Jolie Poirier.
