Conor McGregor kicks security inside octagon
It is very tough to stop Conor McGregor inside the octagon as it is. Imagine trying to stop the Irishman when he is tensed up and fired to lay his hands on his opponent. A security guard had to go through one of such incidents at a pay-per-view event, UFC 264.
Conor McGregor truly has different rules for him in the UFC. Any other fighter that tries to pull off the stunts and antics of The Notorious One might not be a part of the company ever again. Conor’s last outing in the UFC octagon was at the most-anticipated trilogy of all time, Poirier vs McGregor 3 at UFC 264. Conor headlined this event against his fierce rival, Dustin Poirier.
Conor was the first of the two to make the walk out to the octagon and the Irishman was very fired to put an end to his rivalry that was tied 1-1 at that point. The lead-up to that trilogy fight wasn’t too friendly either as the two fighters went at each other and Conor was personally offended by Dustin’s approach in the lead-up. In the below video you can see that McGregor is very restless as Dustin makes his walk out. The restless Conor then goes up to the security and throws a high kick that almost scrapes off the guard’s head. Props to the security, he did not even flinch and maintained his composure.
Conor McGregor while shadowboxing and prepping himself up for the fight at hand bounces back and forth and throws a roundhouse kick that almost lands at the security. After he throws his kick, Conor goes on to point his finger at the guard. The security does not flinch and announcer Bruce Buffer watches as the Irishman bounces on his feet.
