Conor McGregor Reacts To Tyson Fury Splitting With Trainer Ben Davison

Conor McGregor has had his say on Tyson Fury parting company with trainer Ben Davison.

The news emerged yesterday ahead of Fury's rematch with WBC world heavyweight champion Deontay Wilder, with Davison stressing that the two remain friends.

Relatively inexperienced in the boxing game, Davison was instrumental in Fury's dramatic weight loss of more than 100 pounds and subsequent sensational comeback.

He was recently attendance for Wilder's devastating knockout victory over Luis Ortiz as he sought after scouting the 'Bronze Bomber' but won't have the opportunity to help guide the Gypsy King to world championship glory in the second bout.

And McGregor, who has been a supporter of Fury over the years, is not a fan of the decision to part ways and urged them to get back together.

He took to social media to reply to a post regarding the news:

McGregor has been training with long-time coach John Kavanagh from a very young age at SBG Ireland and has been with him all the way for a truly incredible journey to stardom and championship glory.

Fury has already made his move to replace Davison, however, as Sugar-Hill Steward, nephew of the late, great Manny Steward, will be leading his camp.
