CHAEL SONNEN claimed he 'had a part in creating Conor McGregor' and mocked his little brother' for 'weird videos.
Sonnen recently called McGregor "rich little weirdo" after McGregor posted a video in which he was naked and squared up to his TV prior to Max Holloway's fight.
Chael Sonnen claimed that he 'had a hand' in Conor McGregor's creation
The war of words escalated when the former champion at two-weight UFC hit back.
Sonnen, an ex-UFC title contender, was honored for his unique trash talk and insisted that he is always in McGregor's side.
He stated this on his YouTube channel: “I got asked about McGregor, who I have carried for years.
"I don't think Conor has a greater public defender than I, in all fairness. There have been some difficult times.
"You'll look foolish defending Conor's actions. I feel that I understand Conor. Conor is something I can relate to.
"I believe I had a hand to create Conor. I don't know if I did, but this is what I feel. "I've always taken care of my little brother."

McGregor is now back in training and has been calling out his rivals, including Poirier (32), Nate Diaz (36), and Holloway (30).
Sonnen was however, particularly critical of the video that was posted just before Holloway's victory over Yair Rodriguez.
He stated that he didn't know the age of Conor. It will be a challenge to find it. I am going with 33. I'm going to 34. I know that I am close.
"But that's when it's weird that you still do this. It's no longer cool.
"If you have the belt, it doesn't matter if you are defending something.
"If you don't pass the medical exam and can't get your license, you're going to be filmed in front of your friend drunkenly on an iPhone. You'll edit it later and upload it. It's strange."
