Conor McGregor was a no show at the World Cup final despite plans to fly over.

McGregor had claimed on social media earlier in the week that he was going to attend the final that took place between Argentina and France.

McGregor said on social media: h f*** ya’s all so I goin on the p.twelve and takin’ my jet to the World Cup final.

"Rock my Italia 90 Irish jersey and grab that World Cup and rip up the left wing like I back playing for Lourdes and there’s a scout present. What they gonna do tackle me"

But despite the claims, McGregor was a no show at the final.

The Irish MMA star made headlines back in 2018 as he attended the World Cup final in Russia.
