CONOR McGREGOR appeared to spit in a fan's face after a jibe about Khabib Nurmagomedov. McGregor, 36, hasn't stepped inside the octagon since suffering a horrifying leg break in a losing effort during his trilogy bout with Dustin Poirier at UFC 264 four years ago. The Irish fighter's return date is currently unknown after his highly-anticipated comeback fight against Michael Chandler was axed due to a toe injury.
The mixed martial artist, though, is still attractig the spotlight as a shocking clip of him has now gone viral. McGregor is shown at what looks like a swanky shopping centre and a fan is heard yelling. "Let's go Khabib" in what appears to be a quip directed at the Irishman. The former lightweight champion turns around and has an angry confrontation with the man in question. A spitting sound is then heard before the ex-featherweight champion walks away.

McGregor is then heard saying: "I spit in your face, what do you do? Nothing.". The location and date in which the clip is recorded is not yet known. McGregor's rivalry with Nurmagomedov back in 2018 went down in history as one of the most intense. The two fighters had fiery confrontations both inside and outside the octagon. That led to a fight at UFC 229, which McGregor lost via submission in the fourth round.
