Chris Weidman and Conor McGregor are buds, so there’s no surprise that Luke Rockhold has turned on the Irishman.

Rockhold meets Weidman for the UFC middleweight title in the co-main event of UFC 194 which is headlined by McGregor and Jose Aldo.
And Rockhold made no secret of his opinion on The Notorious when he took to The Cruz Show this week.
The former Strikeforce middleweight champion appeared on the LA radio show with Urijah Faber, who appears alongside McGregor on TUF 22, and referred to the Dubliner with a pretty unsavoury term.
The host of the show had claimed that he’d beaten McGregor in an arm-wrestling match and Rockhold responded by saying “you beat an anorexic leprechaun.”
And we used to like Luke Rockhold and everything.
