Conor McGregor has a legion of die-hard fans who believe he can do no wrong. Among them is Jon Orlando, host of the Action Junkeez podcast and frequent guest of MMAjunkie Radio (and a personal friend of this writer).
In the build-up to “The Money Fight,” Jon appeared on the show and made a bet with George and Goze: If Floyd Mayweather won, he would have to appear on the show in a diaper and walk around in public like that.
Well, Mayweather beat McGregor (predictably) by 10th-round TKO, and the time for Jon to pay off his debt came Monday.
Warning: Grown man in a diaper:

The lesson here is to not bet us things. Good on you Jon for being a man…a weird man baby but still.

This all could’ve been avoided. Jon could’ve bet money or lunch or dinner or something simple. But nope. His unwavering faith in McGregor would not allow that. Fair play to him for being a man of his word.
“I mean, I just … what do you say? I’m sitting here in a diaper. I don’t know how I got into this. I should’ve let it go at Chipotle, right? I had it made. I believed in him. And he looked good first three rounds. You’ve got to give him that. And don’t tell me Floyd let him. Don’t, don’t. Don’t.”
Floyd let him, Jon.
