UFC lightweight champion Conor McGregor decided not to ignore yesterday's clash between his friend Artem Lobov and Khabib Nurmagomedov. However, nobody expected such an inadequate reaction.
Yesterday Nurmagomedov met Lobov in the hotel lobby, where UFC 233 tournament fighters live, and slapped Artem for the charges of cowardice in one of the interviews.
Today McGregor arrived in Brooklyn and together with his team made a real bacchanal in front of the arena of Barclays Center.
Journalist Ariel Halvani commented on the situation on Twitter:
"Conor and his team members appeared at Barclays Center at the end of the media day. With someone out of the arena of fighters, speaking at the tournament, there were skirmishes.
"People in the van say that when the car drove off, McGregor's team knocked at the windows until the guards escaped them. A chair was thrown into the van window, one fighter was injured.
"I saw a video taken by fighters from the van. It's clearly heard that Conor was telling someone to get out of the van until the guards pulled him away. Khabib and his team were in this van."
