Soooooo.... Conor McGregor apparently went FULL RETARD today.

McGregor was the UFC Lightweight Champion. However, since McGregor hasn't defended the title in a year and a half and shows no apparent interest in doing so, it was decided that this weekend's Khabib Nurmagomedov vs Max Holloway fight will crown a new UFC Lightweight champion.

That apparently didn't go over well with with Mr Notorious.  McGregor and about 20 of his "associates" obtained access to the UFC 223 "media day" venue in New York City, and attacked a bus on which numerous UFC fighters were travelling.  Objects, including a loading dolly and a security railing, were thrown at the bus, breaking windows.  Fighter Ray Borg has been removed from the card due to an eye injury from broken glass.  Michael Chiesa suffered cuts, but intends to fight anyway. Rose Namajunas, likewise, suffered "a scare" but will fight anyway.

One of McGregor's associates involved in the incident is fellow UFC fighter Artem Lobov, who was scheduled to fight at UFC 223.  Lobov has been removed from the card as a result. 

For the record, I think that if McGregor ever actually gets into the octagon against Khabib, he'll get ground and mashed into a mushy whiskey-and-potato flavored paste.

Conor... you never go FULL RETARD.
