An Irish football coach has told of his joy after Conor McGregor blocked him on Twitter over a comment he left on one of the UFC fighter's tweets.
Canada-based goalkeeping coach David Ennis told the former two-weight champion to leave Katie Taylor alone after McGregor offered to pay security costs for a Croke Park homecoming for the Bray native against Amanda Serrano. McGregor posted over the weekend: "The extra security bill is 500k to have Katie Taylor fight at Croke Park? I will sponsor the event to see this happen."
After Taylor's promoter Eddie Hearn replied to McGregor saying "let's talk", the Notorious wrote: "What’s the craic lad. Give me the current landscape. I’m in. Is this doable still? Or is it a double show, the point first with Croke Park later in year, post the GAA season? I’m in either way. She better be getting her worth for this also." Hearn then took the conversation private by replying: "In your DM's." However, Ennis tweeted to McGregor: "Leave her alone you leach."
