Conor McGregor is said to have kicked a wall after seeing Anderson Silva lose one of his biggest fights

Paddy Pimblett has told a funny anecdote about watching Conor McGregor go ballistic after watching Anderson Silva lose to Chris Weidman.

Just like the great Brazilian, 'The Notorious' has a beautiful striking style.

On one occasion, Pimblett and McGregor settled in to watch the fight between two of the world's greatest middleweights.

In an interview with StillTalkingShow, the Liverpudlian recalled how the Dubliner reacted when one of his favorite mixed martial artists fell short.

Pimblett chuckled: “When I had my first Cage Warriors fight, he had just signed with the UFC. I was 19 and he was there. We watched Anderson Silva vs. Chris Weidman that night.

“I'll never forget it. I fell asleep with my head on the couch, woke up and ended up watching the fight. There were only a few of us. He was there with John Kavanagh.

“When Anderson lost, he was upset because he's an Anderson fan. I will never forget him kicking the wall at this reception in this hotel. It was fucking hilarious.
