    Quotes from Fury.

    "I am familiar with a man named Conor McGregor, I think he copied me in everything he does," "I was the first trash talker - big time - in these shores, first one in Ireland. Then all of a sudden, he started copying me, this Conor McGregor guy"

    "I grew a big beard. He grew a big beard. I talk about everybody, he starts talking about everybody. And it worked for the heavyweight champ of the world. It must work for Conor McGregor, some guy who's like 140 pounds, or whatever he is."

    "I am a fan of his. He's copied my style. I better admire him for it. I've never met him, but the guy is a very entertaining character. Conor McGregor got me actually physically watching MMA and wanted to check the results. Because the way he was carrying on, I thought 'this guy has definitely got a bit of myself'. I want to check him out.

    "I saw the fight with the [Chad] Mendes guy and I will be watching the Aldo fight because he's got a lot to say, hasn't he?"


    I would pay to see these two trash talk each other face to face.

    Why does every fighter think they've started trash talking and sometimes they get quite deluded and think they also started original trash talking. 99% of the time you're saying the sort of thing that everyone's heard before.
