Conor McGregor's coach John Kavanagh has forgiven the UFC for throwing them out last night - after his fighter Johnny Walker earned a $50,000 bonus.
Walker brought an impressive halt to a two-fight losing streak when he submitted Ion Cutelaba in the first fight on the UFC 279 main card. But he soon found himself out in the street while still wearing his fight gear, with Kavanagh claiming: "UFC just came and kicked us out. No tickets for us and not allowed stay back stage to watch. Pulled out back door, kicked out, no even [got] shoes on>"
The Irishman later posted a video of Walker arriving back at his hotel having been unable to get changed. Kavanagh added: "So here we are back at the hotel, Johnny still has his gloves on, he didn’t get a chance to get changed." But after learning Walker was to receive one of the night's bonuses, Kavanagh tweeted: "Well Johnny Walker won the 50Gs baby bonus. All is forgiven UFC, you can boot us out anytime."
