James Gallagher Fathers Mike Kimbel for Talking About his Mother

Well this was pretty nuts. I was sitting at my desk (not doing work because ya know) and all of a sudden I see James Gallagher, Bellator Star and SBG member/teammate of McGregor getting into a scuffle with Mike Kimbel (same management as Mcgregor). First off, neither are fighting on the card so not sure why they were there, but, secondly, why these two had beef.

After doing some digging I found the source of the issue and Jimmy even went on to explain in an interview what happened.

So we know one thing. Jimmy boy gave Kimbel a good smack on the jaw which caused the melee backstage. Secondly, Kimbel said something completely out of line to not only get that reaction but to make Jimmy declare he will never grant him the fight he is looking for. As one of the biggest shit talkers and stars of Bellator (McGregor Jr of sorts) this was shocking to say the least. So let's take a look at exactly what was said.

“He posted up on Instagram — posted a picture of me and my ma — and said on the caption, ‘She should have swallowed the sperm cell that made him’,” Gallagher said. “So I said nothing and walked up and left hooked him on the chin.”- Oscar Willis, The MacLife

Yeaaaahhhhh....

I mean, yeah don't blame the guy. Everyone said the same thing about Conor when he went after Khabib's dad, you go after someone's family it pretty much constitutes an ass whoopin. Good for the Strabanimal, and for the record, he would murder Kimbel in a fight too.

The weirdest part though of this whole story is the McGregor aspect. He is boys with Jimmy and he is represented by the same company as Kimbel.

But McGregor is SBG loyal through and through and seeing how Jimmy is essentially his little brother it would seem he's taking that side as is evident from this retweet:
