McGregor’s actions were described by UFC president Dana White as “the most disgusting thing in UFC history”, while claiming that an arrest warrant was issued for Conor McGregor after his massive tantrum.
McGregor later handed himself into police custody, where he was charged with three counts of assault and one count of criminal mischief. Another MMA fighter, who is a friend of McGregor, named Cian Cowley was also charged with one count of misdemeanor assault and one count of criminal mischief. (The Journal)
