New York police are investigating an incident in which UFC lightweight champion Conor McGregor allegedly caused chaos at Brooklyn’s Barclays Center on Thursday by gatecrashing a media event ahead of UFC223 on Saturday, April 7.
McGregor is alleged to have entered the building through a side entrance together with his entourage before trying to attack a van containing Russian lightweight contender Khabib Nurmagomedov and other fighters as they prepared to leave.
