Conor McGregor has told Donald Trump to “shut his big fat mouth” after the American took aim at Ronda Rousey following her loss to Holly Holm in their title fight on November 14.

UFC Bantamweight Champion Holly Holm calls her latest journey “blessed”.
“I didn’t know Donald Trump was talking trash”, claimed McGregor.
Rousey trained to become an MMA fighter at Glendale Fighting Club just north of Los Angeles but her own mother was having a concern with head trainer Edmond Tarverdyan even bfore Rousey got lost to Holm a few weeks ago.
“Donald Trump was talking trash?”
The two ladies seemed cool during the promotion for the fight… but things got a little testy those last couple days following a scuffle at the pre-fight weigh in. Ronda will be back. “The true champions can conquer that, overcome it and come back”.
Up next for interim titleholder McGregor (18-2 MMA, 6-0 UFC) is a title-unification bout with long-reigning featherweight champ Jose Aldo (25-1 MMA, 7-0 UFC).
In an interview with CNN, Rousey had previously expressed her opposition to Trump’s presidential campaign: “I mean, I wouldn’t vote for him”.
“Defeat is the secret in breeding success”.
“The reason why is this fight so big, why is this win so big for me, [is] because she [Rousey] was that good”, Holm explained.
“I just really wouldn’t trust the guy with running my country”.
Rousey was also criticised for refusing to touch gloves with Holm before their fight began.
“It’s easy for someone who isn’t in [the Octagon] to comment”, he said. The emotions are high… you don’t want to touch gloves, then don’t.

However, McGregor had some advice for the politician (Warning: NSFW language). “I don’t give a fuck about Donald Trump”.
