Malignaggi (36-8 boxing), a former pro boxer and who held titles in two divisions, retired earlier this year and shifted to a career in boxing commentary. But as UFC lightweight champion McGregor (21-3 MMA, 9-1 UFC) prepares for an Aug. 26 boxing match with undefeated boxing legend Floyd Mayweather (49-0 boxing), Malignaggi briefly served as a McGregor sparring partner. Since a high-profile falling out with McGregor, Malignaggi and White have offered different accounts of how the sparring sessions unfolded. After spending roughly a week in McGregor’s camp, Malignaggi made a sudden exit when unflattering sparring photos surfaced online
