All fucking hell just broke loose at the UFC 223 media day.
Originally held to promote the upcoming title fight between Max Holloway and Khabib Nurmagomedov, it quickly devolved into the Conor McGregor show, as “Notorious” crashed the Brooklyn festivities and caused a huge melee.

Conor McGregor and members of his team showed up at the Barclays Center at the very end of media day moments ago. There was an altercation with some of the departing fighters who are competing on the card. I’m told from people who were in the van that as the van was driving off, they started banging on the windows before security broke it all up. I’m told that chairs were thrown through the van window and one passenger on the van was injured. According to multiple sources Michael Chiesa suffered a laceration in the fracas. He is being attended to at the arena. Unclear at this time how serious his injury is.
More on this insanity in just a moment.
