There is a saying in Japan. That the string of poop that flows out behind the ass of a goldfish, will never become a goldfish. I thought that was self-explanatory, but maybe there is some nuance lost in translation in English. After all, we do have some messed up sayings in American too. Either way, this wild ass quote is what Teruto Ishihara used to describe Artem Lobov. Implying that Lobov just clings onto Conor McGregor and will never be as great as him.
This combined with saying he’d behead Lobov with his katana sword means that Ishihara is starting to develope some pretty extreme and incredibly diverse trash talking.
"McGregor is the goldfish, and Artem in the poop thats following the goldfish around, the thin poop…"

I’m not sure if Lobov got wind of the bizarre but oddly apt quote, but he had some words of his own for Ishihara since he loves his “bitches” so much.

Will the Russian (and Irish) fight hand man of McGregor smash Ishihara with his hammer, or will the Japanese Don Juan slice off the head of his opponent with a samurai sword? This fight kicks off the main card on UFC Belfast at 4pm ET on UFC Fight Pass.
