UFC star Conor McGregor had a confrontation with a photographer from TMZ after his heated press conference with Nate Diaz, cursing at the staffer and calling him an “idiot” after he asked the Irishman about some of his comments.
The photographer was the same man who quizzed McGregor about his claims he would “whoop Jesus” back in December.
TMZ Sports shared video of the confrontation on Thursday, as the photographer―identified as “Charlie”―asked McGregor about a comment he made about Diaz, using the word “cholo.” The UFC featherweight champion didn’t like the question one bit (Warning: Video contains profanity):
Per the report, McGregor told the same photographer he would “whoop Jesus Christ’s ass” back in December, before stating the two were “cool,” as “gods recognize gods.”
McGregor will face off with Diaz at UFC 196 on March 5.
