Conor McGregor was arrested at UFC 223’s media day in New York on Thursday. He was believed to be looking to confront his next rumored opponent, Khabib Nurmagomedov.
Conor McGregor and members of his team showed up at the Barclays Center at the very end of media day moments ago. There was an altercation with some of the departing fighters who are competing on the card.

The altercation took place as fighters were leaving media day. McGregor was spotted picking up a guard rail and attempting to throw at a van that Nurmagomedov was riding in.
The scene was chaotic and there were several people taking videos of this wild scene. I can’t imagine the UFC being happy about this.
