Conor McGregor recently hurled insults at Firas Zahabi, after the Tristar Gym coach said he would pick Max Holloway to win in a potential rematch.
The 38-year-old coach had another Ask Me Anything session, where he spoke to fans about various topics and eventually addressed the Irishman’s comments. Zahabi says he’s obviously open to criticism and having back-and-forth discussions about his analysis, but he will never throw insults, name-call, or make a big stink on social media.
The renowned trainer, who coined the “touch of death” term about McGregor’s power, says he’s studied Conor’s game so much for the simple fact that he’s one of the best fighters out there.
