It looks like PETA wants to enter the octagon with Conor McGregor and “Cowboy” Cerrone this weekend.

The People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals called out the famous UFC fighters on Twitter after McGregor and competitor Donald “Cowboy” Cerrone had a friendly back-and-forth about the latter’s python jacket.

The exchange, which took place during a press conference with the two fighters before their upcoming fight Saturday, started with McGregor interrupting Cerrone to compliment his coat.

“That’s one hell of a coat, Donald, my God. I got to give credit where credit is due,” McGregor starts, before asking why kind of material it is.

“It’s python,” Cerrone answered. “I’m sure PETA might be here because I got rattlesnakes on and python.”

McGregor, who called PETA “shady,” responded that the group has “a warrant out for me as well.” It was a sentiment that proved to be true, as the animal rights organization quickly responded to McGregor’s statements on Twitter, slamming the fighters. …

Perhaps a few PETA people need some Burmese pythons inside their house maybe they would come to their senses. Let the PETA people go into the Everglades and try to save some of the Burmese pythons themselves.

After PETA called on Cerrone to stop wearing animal products, he replied:

"I got a white buffalo at home, PETA. And when she croaks, I'm going to wear a (expletive) ass white buffalo cape one of these days. At the ranch I have a lot of animals: turkeys, goats, chickens, pigs. We kill them and butcher them, and we eat them all ourselves, man. We use every bit of them. So it's not like - I don't just go down to the store and buy beef. We raise it and kill it and eat it. So, if there's something inhumane or unjust about killing beef for my own sake, PETA, you're (expletive) up."

PETA, sorry but I doubt the Python needed it’s skin, so.it was made into a Python jacket. I thought PETA went extinct during the reign of Emperor Oblamo...

Pythons are being eradicated because they are destroying the Everglades habitat. Where’s PETA when natural wildlife is being destroyed by an evasive species? Hypocraps!
