Conor McGregor has offered an explanation for why he “lost it” after jumping into the cage following SBG team-mate Charlie Ward’s defeat of John Redmond at Bellator 187 at 3Arena in Dublin on Friday.
Having illegally entered the ring to celebrate with his training partner, McGregor was told to leave by referee Marc Goddard and proceeded to berate the official.
Per TMZ Sports, the UFC lightweight champion offered an explanation for his actions on Twitter on Monday but subsequently deleted the post that read: “Bloke KO’d on floor bout a minute straight and ref trying to say, ‘Fight’s not over, Conor.’ That’s when I lost it. F–k yous all.”
