Conor McGregor branded ‘douchebag’ by UFC legend Michael Bisping for behaviour at Anthony Joshua vs Daniel Dubois

Michael Bisping was a little bit distracted during Anthony Joshua’s upset loss to Daniel Dubois on Saturday night.

‘Dynamite’ dominated Joshua from the first bell before ultimately knocking him out in the fifth round of their IBF heavyweight title fight at Wembley Stadium.

The night belonged to Dubois, but another man tried to steal the show.

Former dual-weight UFC champion Conor McGregor sat in the front row wearing a questionable shirt and holding an unlit cigar all evening.

‘Notorious’ was caught on camera going crazy every time Joshua got dropped.

McGregor’s behaviour amused most. Even Oleksandr Usyk, who holds the three other major world heavyweight titles, was seen buzzing off the Irishman’s antics.

Bisping didn’t love it. The UFC Hall of Famer made that much clear during the most recent episode of the podcast he shares with light-heavyweight contender Anthony Smith.

“Conor, you would’ve thought he was a big Daniel Dubois fan,” Bisping said.

“When Joshua was getting [knocked down] he was out of his seats, and maybe the cigar might’ve even got lit.

“Walking in with a big cigar, unlit, between the teeth. How do we feel about that? Because two words spring to mind right now. Douche. Bag.”

“If I was rocking about with a suit, pulling up my collar every two seconds and a cigar hanging out you would [let me have it].

“This is the problem when nobody says, ‘Bro, you look like a c***’. Nobody is saying anything, but at least light the cigar.”

McGregor is believed to be worth £200million after 11 years in the UFC.

Smith fears he’s become so rich no one is checking his wacky behaviour.

He added: “I don’t know what happens to people or when you change or how much money you have to have to start doing weird, douche-y s*** like that.

“Like, how rich do you have to be to wear your sunglasses inside 24/7?

“I wish I was five per cent as cool as he thinks he is. Like, how do you get to be so cool? I don’t get it. And I don’t want to just talk s*** on Conor, but come on, bro. Come on.”

McGregor hasn’t always seen eye-to-eye with Bisping or Smith.

It remains to be seen how he will react to them mocking his behaviour.

Don’t be surprised to see him blasting both men on social media very soon.
