His own answer to intense critisism which he has been practicing for the last few days, he wanted to give Conor McGregorregarding the… infamous punch he threw at the Miami Heat mascot in Game 4 of the NBA Finals, which resulted in “Burnie” being driven to hospital!
Speaking on ‘Live with Kelly and Mark’, the former Irish UFC champion revealed the whole thing was staged and the mascot was fine after the hit, with the two spending time together after the fight.
“That was part of the skit, it was all a skit. We were backstage afterwards, everything was fine, it was just part of the show. The mascot is fine. It was a skit and all good. I spent a lot of time with him afterwards, I hugged him and everything was great”he said characteristically.
The Miami Heat mascot, Burnie, was sent to the ER last night after taking a hit from UFC fighter Conor McGregor during a midgame bit in Game 4 of the NBA Finals, per @sam_amick.
