Okay, so I got really into this whole Conor McGregor vs. CJ Watson thing today. It all started because I was watching some old McGregor fight highlights, and I stumbled upon a comment mentioning this supposed beef with CJ Watson. I was like, “Who’s CJ Watson?” And down the rabbit hole I went.

First, I googled “Conor McGregor CJ Watson” to get the basic gist. Turns out, there’s this whole story about McGregor supposedly taunting Floyd Mayweather about an alleged relationship between Watson and Mayweather’s ex. It’s messy, to say the least.
Digging Deeper
After getting the overview, I wanted to see if I could find any actual evidence. I spent a good hour scouring different websites. Most of it was just gossip and speculation, forum posts, and the like. Nothing concrete.
Then, I tried to find some old tweets or social media posts from around the time this was supposed to have happened. I figured maybe there would be something from back then that would shed some light. I scrolled through a bunch of timelines, but it was mostly just people talking about the rumors, not the rumors themselves.
The “Evidence” (or Lack Thereof)
- Found: Lots of articles and forum posts REPEATING the same story.
- Found: A few blurry screenshots of supposed text messages, but nothing verifiable.
- Didn’t Find: Any direct quotes from McGregor or Watson confirming any of this.
- Didn’t Find: Any solid proof of anything, really.
I mostly just ran into maybes and what ifs.
Honestly, my “research” mostly confirmed that this whole thing is probably more hype than reality. It’s a classic case of internet rumors getting blown out of proportion. I started out thinking I’d uncover some big scandal, but I ended up just feeling like I’d wasted a couple of hours. I guess that’s the internet for you!
