Conor McGregor announced his biggest fight ever by absolutely trolling his opponent... it's the Dredge

All the day’s celebrity filth, in here.

EVERY WEEKDAY MORNING, DailyEdge.ie rounds up the best of the day’s celebrity dirt from the top to the very bottom.

So, it’s finally happening. 

After years of back and forth, trash talking and false dawns the Conor McGregor and Floyd Mayweather Jr boxing bout is actually going ahead.

And McGregor announced the news on Twitter and Instagram last night by throwing massive shade at his opponent:

Yes, that’s Mayweather’s dad in the second photo – given McGregor is 28 and his opponent is 40, the age difference is a big talking point and source of comedy for The Notorious:

What a way to announce it.

McGregor is set to pocket around €100 million for the fight, but he will be the massive underdog going in given the fact that he’s an MMA fighter and this will be purely boxing – while the fight itself is coming in for all sorts of criticism, being deemed a “publicity stunt” in some quarters.

It’s set to take place on 26 August in Vegas… so expect plenty of chatter in the coming months.

Bella Thorne has explained why she ‘ditched’ Scott Disick in Cannes and flew home to Los Angeles by herself.

The pair were spotted last month at the film festival, with rumours swirling that the 19-year-old had sparked a romance with Kourtney Kardashian’s ex Disick.

But within a couple of days she’d left him for home – and this week she spoke about why it didn’t work out.

Scott just loved the session too much, apparently.

Speaking to Complex, she said:

Scott is really nice, sweet, charming. I don’t drink, and he really drinks a lot. And it just ended up …I just wasn’t down. I was like, ‘I gotta leave,’
We were [at Cannes] a day and a half before I was like I’m booking my flight and leaving. I love to go out and have fun, I love to f**king dance, but I just don’t party hardcore like that and it was way too much for me.
I was like, ‘Woah, this is not the way I live my life, bruh.

Bruh!

Miley Cyrus appeared on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon last night – and as one of the sketches she disguised herself and started busking in the NYC Subway.
