Conor tries to fight Marc Goddard!!!

[SlapheadGiraffe]

Conor McGregor jumped the cage fence to celebrate with his teammate Charlie Ward after he dispatched John Redmond in the final seconds of the first round at Bellator 187 in Dublin on Friday night.

Immediately after the fight was called off, McGregor, who was not a licensed cornerman, excitedly jumped in the cage to celebrate with Ward. Referee Marc Goddard, who has a history with McGregor, immediately told him to leave the cage, which appeared to upset the UFC star.

Wtf. Conor fan, but hard to imagine a situation where this isn't an excessive response...

Probably related to Marc telling him off for verbally coaching Lobov last fight?

I would have loved to have been the cagemonkey for that event.

What a tool.

Goddard gives zero fucks. I love it. Conor jumps towards him and Marc just shoves him away and continues to do what he's supposed to be doing. Conor then loses his mind. So funny.

Saw this on Reddit.

Marc coached a guy who Conor fought and Marc didn't like the way Conor handled himself at the weigh in for that fight. Conor wasn't too friendly after the fight, Marc refereed his next fight and after Conor stopped the guy, Marc kinda just shoved him off. And they've had tension since.

People pretty much think this is the result of McGregor not being sober. Funny stuff though.

Meanwhile Redmond is dazed and is being trampled but the ensuing shenanigans.

Free publicity for Bellator I guess. UFC will be fuming, they do 'nuttin though but because morals only count when its fighter that doesn't make money.

If it happened in the States,he would be suspended for sure.I`m not sure how the ABC will handle this one since it`s in Ireland.

He could be suspended by the local commission, he won't though, especially if him doing PPV in Ireland is ever to be on the cards.
