Bully boy Conor's insult to whingery

One-man crime wave's dig puts Star in fine company

- 

WE ARE happy to find ourselves in such illustrious company.

Alongside the Pint of Guinness and Paul McGrath to name just two icons.

And now your Irish Daily Star has been welcomed into this exclusive club of Irish institutions.

The price of entry? P*ssing off the Ludicrous Conor McGregor.

The former plumber and one-time UFC fighter once engaged in a deluded popularity contest with the Black Pearl for challenging his online bully boy tactics.

He also previously announced his cutrate porter was going to be bigger than the Black Stuff. You can still hear the echoes of the laughter from St James Gate.

And now in his latest mismatch, he's decided to take us on in a battle over truth and facts.

McGregor didn't like it when we debunked the myths he peddled to his fanboy social media followers about the verdict of a civil jury, the one that found he violently raped Nikita Hand in a hotel room on a night out in Dublin.

For the crime of fact checking his rant (and maybe the polite front page headline that the presidential wannabe was "talking through his Aras") he decided to aim a few of his notorious online cheap shots at our journalism.
