The waiting is almost over, and Conor McGregor and Jose Aldo look ready to knock each other’s heads clean off.

The heated moment between The Notorious and Scarface makes a little more sense when you see how much tension there was between the two warriors before they stepped out onto the stage.

Rising UFC lightweight Kevin Lee, who’s fighting Leonardo Santos on the UFC 194 prelims, recorded Aldo and McGregor having a pretty intense staring match backstage.

McGregor is seen running his mouth at the champion while Aldo used that patented thousand yard stare in a bid to intimidate the challenger.
