“I thought I was in bleedin’ Lanzarote.”
UFC star Conor McGregor was heard to say “come and get me” as he sped away from a court appearance in Dublin on Thursday.
McGregor appeared at Blanchardstown District Court on Thursday morning, having been caught driving at 150 km/h in a 100 km/h zone earlier this year. He pleaded guilty to a charge of speeding and was fined €400.
On his way out of court, McGregor said: “I thought I was in bleedin’ Lanzarote” and was asked by a reporter if he had “any reaction to the threats on his life”.
