EXCLUSIVE

Tyron Woodley[1] is going in on Conor McGregor[2] -- saying his "larger than life mobster" image is a front ... and he's sick and tired of watching the guy act like a fake, tough guy.

We spoke with the UFC welterweight champ about Conor's plea deal[3] in his bus attack case[4] -- and Woodley says the lack of any serious punishment is par for the course when it comes to McGregor. 

He also thinks that Conor's behavior -- from the violent incident at the Bellator fight[5] to the Nate Diaz can-throwing incident[6] -- is a TERRIBLE example for young kids and upcoming fighters. 

Tyron's bigger issue ... "At some point, we have to go back to the f**king sport."
