After <a href=\"http:\/\/staging.tcpcharms.com\/bjpenn\/mma-news\/conor-mcgregor\/conor-mcgregor-blasts-fabricio-werdum-calling-py-mma-awards-acceptance-speech\/\">&#8220;The Notorious&#8221; criticised Werdum<\/a> for pulling out of a title defense fight due to injury, Werdum has been very vocal about his resentment of the Irishman.<\/p>\n<p>Werdum spoke on the MMA Hour on Monday to talk about his beef with McGregor (transcribed by <a href=\"http:\/\/www.mmafighting.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">MMA Fighting<\/a>).<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Conor McGregor started well with his marketing, he talks a lot and is a great fighter, we can\u2019t deny that, but I think he crossed the line. It\u2019s too much now,&#8221; Werdum said. &#8220;He said he will fight anyone, but that\u2019s not how things work in our world. Fighters have a code, a law, and you have to respect everybody. He lost this respect, talked about me at the MMA Awards, and he talked sh*t at the wrong person. I won\u2019t stay quiet and just listen.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Fighters don\u2019t like Conor McGregor,&#8221; he continued. &#8220;Everybody likes watching him fight because he does a good marketing, but I won\u2019t change who I am because of money. Everybody likes money, but there\u2019s a limit. Money isn\u2019t everything. He sold his soul &#8211; and I\u2019m saying soul so I don\u2019t say other things [laughs]. I don\u2019t think that\u2019s cool. He sold his soul. It was about time someone would shut him up.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Werdum&#8217;s manager recently advised McGregor and the UFC to <a href=\"http:\/\/staging.tcpcharms.com\/bjpenn\/mma-news\/conor-mcgregor\/conor-mcgregor-warned-hire-personal-security-fabricio-werdum-around\/\">hire personal security<\/a> for the featherweight champion if they know there are chances of Werdum crossing paths with &#8220;The Notorious.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;If he says something in a press conference and I\u2019m there, I would get (UFC president) Dana (White) out of the way [laughs]. You can\u2019t let him be that cocky. You have to be crazier than him sometimes so he stops. I posted a photo <a href=\"http:\/\/staging.tcpcharms.com\/bjpenn\/mma-news\/conor-mcgregor\/fabricio-werdum-responds-to-conor-mcgregors-speech-a-picture-is-worth-a-thousand-words\/\">putting my hand in his a**<\/a> to show that he\u2019s a prostitute. He does anything for money. Money is important, of course, but that\u2019s not everything in your life. That\u2019s what I was trying to say.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Nate Diaz showed him that. He talked a lot, moved up in weight and saw how heavy Nate Diaz\u2019s hands are. When he needed to show up and fight, he lost. He was humbled. And Nate showed the way to beat him. He becomes a child on the ground.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>UFC heavyweight champion Fabricio Werdum is not very fond of the featherweight champion Conor McGregor.
