Former two-division UFC titleholder Conor McGregor is in the news for non-fighting related reasons once again.

Recently, Conor McGregor had a heated encounter with a fan who tried to mock the Irish superstar with a chant related to one of his biggest rivals in the UFC. The fan seemed to be chanting the name of Khabib Nurmagomedov, who has been McGregor's bitter rival in the past.

McGregor, surrounded by security guards, then turns around and approaches the man in question. The Irishman, 36, appears to spit in the man’s face, before saying: “I spit in your face, what do you do? Nothing. I spit in your face.” The Independent has approached McGregor and his management team for comment.
