Conor McGregor is the current UFC lightweight champion as well as probably the biggest star the sport has ever seen. Recently there has also been talk of him crossing over to the boxing world to fight undefeated pound for pound king Floyd Mayweather but nothing confirmed as of yet.
McGregor is also known to be quite fan friendly and is known to be someone who tries to make time for fans when he can, which is why the following video of him getting aggressive with a fan is quite bizarre.
It’s hard to tell from such a short video what exactly happened but according to the fan who took the video, James Foran said on his Facebook page “I literally did nothing haha asked him could I record and all and then he slapped my phone.”
In the video you see a fan recording himself with Conor who’s behind the wheel then asks him how he is doing when suddenly Conor whacks his phone while appearing quite angry. Perhaps Conor didn’t like a phone being shoved in his face while he was driving or if the fan said or did something before the video started.
Either way it sure made for a memorable encounter for the fan though it is pretty unusual behavior from McGregor and perhaps more went on here than we know.
Don’t Piss Off Conor McGregor ????????????
