Let’s just say the two had a bit of tiff
Conor McGregor is usually happy to pick a fight with just about anyone – including rapper turned pop-punk star, Machine Gun Kelly, apparently.
At last night’s MTV Video Music Awards (VMAs) – where MGK won Best Alternative Video for the song ‘My Ex’s Best Friend (feat. Blackbear)’ – the two seemed to get into somewhat of a physical altercation. They were of course separated by an army of security, but didn’t stop McGregor from launching his drink.

TMZ reported that the altercation all started over McGregor asking the artist for a photo (which has since been denied), causing the UFC star to launch his drink at the.
The Irishman’s spokesperson told The Independent: “Conor McGregor did not ask anyone for a picture, nor did he instigate this incident. He does not know Machine Gun Kelly, outside of the fact that he attended Conor’s fight this past July.”

As the Irishman mentions, the singer is currently dating Megan Fox, who was also present during the incident and had to be pulled out of the way of the small skirmish.
