Conor McGregor has insisted that his incident with the Miami Heat mascot last week was ‘all a skit’, after ‘Burnie’ was reportedly hospitalised by the UFC star’s punches.
During Game 4 of the NBA finals between the Heat and the Denver Nuggets, McGregor took to the court and punched the home team’s mascot, before striking him again when he was prone on the court. The incident was seemingly a skit, though many observers believed it had gone beyond that when the mascot was reportedly taken to hospital.
