Conor McGregor just UNLOADED on the WWE -- saying most of the pro wrestlers are "p**sies" -- and blasted Brock Lesnar as a juiced up cheater.

McGregor was on a conference call to promote UFC 202 when he was asked if he'd ever consider doing a stint in the WWE ... and that's when he went off.

"I haven't really thought about it," McGregor said ... "For the most part, those WWE guys are p**sies."

"They're messed up p**sies if you ask me."

McGregor said there are some people he respects over there -- including the McMahons, Triple H and The Rock.

But when asked about Brock Lesnar ... he fired even more shots.

Conor McGregor says Nate Diaz will NOT make it to the 3rd round of their rematch ... predicting a 2ND ROUND K.O. at UFC 202.

McGregor was answering questions on the UFC 202 media conference call Friday -- when he admitted that he underestimated Nate's chin and toughness the first time around ... but he won't make that mistake again.

"He weathered the storm," Conor said ... "I'm just gonna be a lot more prepared for a man that can stay in there with me."

That being said ... Conor said confidently -- "I will K.O. him inside the 2nd round."

NFL linebacker Torrey Green says he is completely innocent in all 4 sexual assault cases -- but wants to apologize to the Atlanta Falcons for the "distraction" his legal issues have caused.

TMZ Sports broke the story ... the former Utah State standout is being investigated for allegedly raping several women in 2015. The Falcons cut him Thursday as soon as they learned about the allegations.

Green has hired a crisis manager -- Zack Teperman of ZTPR -- who says he's 100% confident Green will not only be exonerated, but continue his NFL career.

"Our client Torrey Green would like to apologize to Arthur Blank, Dan Quinn, Jeff Ulbrich and the entire Falcons organization for this distraction and the unfortunate accusations," Teperman says.

"At this time Torrey has complete faith that any further investigation will prove his complete innocence and he will be exonerated."

"It's a shame his name is being dragged out there in the media and that this young man’s bright future in the NFL is taking a major hit."

Several Team USA hoops stars made a bonehead move in a foreign land -- thinking they were walking into a spa that turned out to be a whorehouse.

DeAndre Jordan, DeMarcus "Boogie" Cousins, DeMar Derozan and possibly 3 other players went out on the town Wednesday night in Rio and strolled into Termas Monte Carlo ... which Rolling Stone called "one of the high end brothels in Rio."

When you call the place, they'll tell you it's a spa that plays music ... and it's just for male customers. Oh, and they have a full bar.

A source close to the team tells us the players got the standard line, so they assumed it was kosher. The source said, "They realized it wasn't the right place for them and immediately left."

As for what happened inside, the players were only seen hanging at the bar. Multiple sources tell us they bought booze ... nothing more.

Someone should've hit the translate button on Yelp.

3:05 PM PT -- HOLD YOUR HORSES ...

A rep for the WWE tells us ... "While the challenge was made at the ESPYs, this match has not been confirmed."

It might be the BIGGEST match in the history of pro wrestling ... SHAQ VS. BIG SHOW ... and it's apparently all set to go down at WrestleMania 33.

The two 7-footers have been talking A LOT of smack over the past few months ... and even challenged each other on the red carpet at the ESPYs back in July.

But now, Big Show has reportedly confirmed the match is set ... telling Shanghai Daily, "We’ll have one heck of a match and we’ll see what’s up. We’ll give the fans a treat."

CANNN YOUUUU DIG IT?!?!!

Ex-Baylor football star Shawn Oakman is adamant he did not rape a woman in his apartment back in April ... and has formally entered a not guilty plea with the court.

As we previously reported, the 24-year-old defensive end was charged with 2nd degree sexual assault after a woman said he forced her into his bedroom in Waco and raped her.

Oakman -- who, at one point, was projected to be a top NFL draft pick -- just signed a waiver of arraignment with the McLennan County District Court, which means he's entered a plea of not guilty.

We spoke with Oakman's lawyer, Michelle Tuegel, who maintains that her client is innocent -- claiming the sex was consensual. Tuegel says the two had a consensual, intimate sexual relationship before the incident.

BMX legend Dave Mirra suffered from depression and heavy drug abuse before he died ... his family told law enforcement.

YOUTH SOCCER IS WAR!!!!

Here's The Rock leading a girls soccer team in "The Haka" -- a traditional Maori war dance -- during a heated match with another team.

Usually, the dance is performed by the New Zealand national rugby team before a match as a way to intimidate the other team ... and can be super frightening.

Don't worry, The Rock's war dance was all for a movie -- "Fast 8" -- but he explained how things got super real on the set.

"To our Polynesian culture the HAKA is extremely emotional and spiritual. A pre battle ritual where we call upon the recognition of our ancestors and to give us strength."

"And if need be, we are prepared to die today, only because we have lived greatly and proudly as people. I told our director @fgarygray to be prepared for anything from me. I might cry, yell, speak with only my eyes and definitely give me space after every take."

Soccer legend Pele will NOT attend Friday's Olympic Opening Ceremony in Brazil due to health issues.

With rumors swirling that he'll start training with Tom Brady, Randy Moss picked up the pigskin this weekend ... for a pickup beach game in St. Lucia.

Turns out, Moss is running BodyHoliday's WellFit Families fitness retreat in the Caribbean -- leading activities like beach football, rock climbing and archery.

While the NFL legend didn't exactly shine during the football game (there's a reason he didn't play QB in high school) ... he killed it with the bow and arrow.

We're told Randy also led the groups in bike rides, sailing courses, cooking classes and abseiling adventures down waterfalls.

Here's supermodel Adriana Lima carrying the Olympic torch through the streets of Rio Thursday night ... and as far we know, nothing bad happened.

The opening ceremony is set to go down Friday afternoon -- Gisele is rumored to be a part of the show and Pele is expected to light the Olympic cauldron.

Ex-NFL running back Montee Ball has just been sentenced to 2 consecutive 30 day jail sentences stemming from 2 different domestic violence incidents.

The 25-year-old -- who last played for the Denver Broncos -- cut a deal with prosecutors and pled guilty to 2 counts of disorderly conduct and 1 count of battery from incidents involving 2 different women.

One woman accused Ball of beating her up at a Madison, WI hotel back in Feb. The other woman claimed Ball got physical with her in March.

In addition to the jail time, Ball was also sentenced to 18 months probation.

Dennis Rodman was driving the WRONG WAY on a California freeway during a July 20th crash ... and then FLED the scene ... officials say.

TMZ Sports broke the story ... Rodman was being investigated for hit-and-run after witnesses told the California Highway Patrol they believed the NBA great was driving a white SUV that crashed on the 5 Freeway around 12:30 AM.

CHP investigators now believe Rodman WAS behind the wheel -- and was traveling northbound while in the southbound carpool lane that night.

Officials say the driver of a BMW swerved to avoid a head-on collision and hit the center divider. Rodman allegedly left the scene.

Multiple sources tell us ... Rodman was at a karaoke bar in the hours before the crash. We're guessing officials want to find out if he was drinking.

TMZ Sports obtained a photo of Rodman at the bar earlier that night holding car keys in his hand.

CHP investigators are recommending Orange County prosecutors should move forward with charges against Rodman.

Story developing ...

Iggy might be gone, but Swaggy P is still keepin' it fancy ... furniture shopping in L.A. while dressed up in $2,000 pajamas!

Nick Young posted a pic when he ran into The Game at a home goods store -- but we noticed the threads were super expensive.

-- Gucci slip-ons ... $840.

-- Versace bathrobe ... $550

-- Gosha Rubchinskiy sweatpants ... $175

-- Rhude "Sugarland" t-shirt ... $165

Grand total ... $1,730 (plus tax) ... so, we're talkin' a little more than $1,800.

FYI, Young signed a 4-year $21.5 million contract back in 2014.

They might be studs on the "pro wrestling" circuit ... but even the most talented "real" wrestlers in the WWE would get ROLLED UP by Team USA's olympic wrestling team ... so says Kurt Angle.

Angle would know ... he won a gold medal in freestyle wrestling at the 1996 Olympics.

So, when it comes to hardcore competition -- not even guys like Seth Rollins, Dean Ambrose and Finn Balor can compete with Team USA's Daniel Dennis, Tony Ramos and Tyler Graff.

BTW, we asked Kurt if he would consider another Olympic comeback attempt -- but he shot that down hard saying he's too old and would "get my ass kicked."
