Imagine being so up your own anus that you’d resort to physical violence against a stranger because he won’t eat the pizza rolls you put in the oven.
That’s basically what CCTV cameras caught Conor McGregor at a pub in his hometown of Dublin, Ireland earlier this year.
Footage of the altercation, which went down at The Marble Arch Pub in Dublin, Ireland on Saturday, April 6, just surfaced last week and it shows the UFC icon walloping a man in his 50s after he allegedly turned down a free drink of McGregor’s Proper Twelve whiskey.

Breaking his silence for the first time, the man told The Irish Sun:
“I can take a punch. It was sore for about a week. It wasn’t killing me or anything.”
“I don’t like the man. I think he is getting a bad rep.”
“He is a bit of a bully, a bully with money.”
It was recently reported that McGregor met his alleged victim in a taxi minutes after punching him in the face.
Footage shows McGregor and a bodyguard exit a Land Rover and climb into back of a taxi the victim had ordered outside the bar.
While it’s still unclear what went down in the cab, a source told the Sun:
“It’s anyone’s guess what was discussed in the taxi, perhaps McGregor was trying to apologise for the incident.
“The man was just in the pub for a quiet drink and after the incident he calmly finished his pint and got into the taxi.
“Gardai [state police force of Ireland] had to look into the meeting because it formed part of the overall investigation.”
McGregor has reportedly been charged with Section Two Assault over the incident.
