McGregor attacks famous American rapper in Brooklyn (video)

Former UFC two-weight champion Conor McGregor noted another audacious prank. The Irishman attacked famous American rapper Machine Gun Kelly during the MTV Video Music Awards in Brooklyn. According to journalist Mark Raymondy on Twitter, McGregor threw a glass of drink at the musician. Security had to intervene to keep the scuffle at bay. The reason for the altercation was not reported.

McGregor's representative Karen Kessler issued a statement regarding the incident: "Conor did not ask for a picture. He's not to blame for what happened. He doesn't know Machine Gun Kelly, except for the fact that he attended his fight in July."

McGregor lost by technical knockout to Dustin Poirier on July 11, breaking his leg in the first round.
