Preacher hopes Conor McGregor gets struck down by lightning

MMA fighter Conor McGregor has no shortage of haters. One of them, apparently, is a baptist preacher in Texas.

On a sermon posted on YouTube, Donnie Romero, who heads the Steadfast Baptist Church in Fort Worth, Texas, blasted the current UFC featherweight champion.

"The guy’s a UFC fighter,” Romero said. “That guy’s nothing! He’s let money go to his head! He’s got pride! And look, let me tell you this, the bigger they are, the harder they fall, my friend."

Romero went on to say that McGregor blasphemed by saying he would "whoop Jesus’ (expletive)."

Even Ronda Rousey ended up being a target of Romero, as he clearly wasn't afraid to speak his mind.

"Everybody was Ronda, Ronda, Ronda! When she lost, everybody that was on her side turned against her, because that’s how the world works," Romero said. "All these people that think they love these people, it’s all pride, it’s all wickedness, it’s all worldliness."

Keep an eye out for preacher Romero's next sermon, as clearly no athlete is off limits for him.
