John Kavanagh says heâs only texted McGregor a couple of times since the brawl that broke out after the fight.
âThis may actually surprise you but I havenât spoken to Conor since the fight,â Kavanagh told ESPNâs Ariel and the Bad Guy.
âWe had a couple of texts back and forward. So, after the fight he went home. I went home as well. We were in separate houses.
âSo I was there with Artem [Lobov], Pete [Queally] and Orlagh [Hunter]. We just stayed up Saturday night, chatting.
âThere were a couple of texts back and forward with Conor â saying, oh I could have done this, I could have done that â then on the Sunday I ended up going out for a little bit with Dillon [Danis] and a couple of guys from Paradigm.â
Kavanagh said he accidentally crossed paths with McGregor the following night, but was held back by security until McGregor recognised him.
âI bumped into him on Sunday night at around 1am,â he said.
âHe was sitting with his family and I was leaving through the hotel. We got to this one area and a lot of security starting pushing me away.
âI spotted Conor and was like, âIs that Conor McGregor?!
âThey were like, âYeah, yeah, you canât go thereâ.
âAnd Conor spotted me and said, âYeah, thatâs my coachâ. So I went in and it was just like âHow are you?â We didnât really talk about the fight.
âHe was sitting with his mother and I said hello to his mam and dad and left. That was it. I didnât see him Monday and I left on Tuesday.â
Mayweather responds to Khabibâs call-out
Floyd âMoneyâ Mayweather has responded to Khabib Nurmagomedovâs throw down to bring the 50-0 fighter out of retirement â and the result may surprise you.
Khabib defeated McGregor at UFC 229 in Las Vegas earlier this month to retain his belt and his perfect record (27-0).
As the dust continues to settle from the shocking scenes that unfolded, and continues to unfold, after the fight â Khabib is seemingly full steam ahead.
âLetâs go, Floyd, we have to fight now,â Khabib said in a video posted on Instagram.
â50-0 versus 27-0, two guys who have never, never lost. Letâs go. Why not?
âIn the jungle, there is only one king. Of course, I am the king. He could not drop McGregor, but I dropped him easily. Thatâs right. Letâs go.â
Khabibâs bombshell request sent shockwaves through the fighting community, as many are still eagerly waiting for the full consequences of Khabib and McGregorâs run-in to surface.
But Mayweather added fuel to the fire by producing his own response on Instagram:
