Conor McGregor Trolled After World Cup Final Bet Goes Wrong!

Conor McGregor faced ridicule after a World Cup final bet went wrong for Spain vs. Argentina, shortly after his UFC 329 return against Max Holloway. The UFC veteran said he placed a $100,000 wager on Argentina to win the tournament. The final ended goalless through the first 90 minutes before extending into 30 minutes of extra time. Spain, considered by many to have delivered a disappointing match, eventually scored when Ferran Torres broke Argentina’s goalkeeper Emiliano “Emi” Martinez’s defense in the 106th minute, after which Spain held on to win. On social media, McGregor said he based his 3-2 scoreline prediction for Argentina on an old tweet he attributed to “some guy on the internet,” and fans mocked the confidence. McGregor also recently confirmed an injury, with no confirmed updates on his comeback.
