Recently Conor McGregor responded to a tweet noting that it was one year ago when sparring footage was released, which appeared to show him knocking Paulie Malignaggi down. The retired boxer, however, denied that he was knocked down.

Well, following McGregor’s recent comments, the outspoken Malignaggi was quick to respond on Twitter.
