Conor McGregor 's father has told Ukrainian president to keep his son's name out his "f*****g mouth" after he criticised the UFC star for being pictured with Vladimir Putin.
McGregor met with the controversial Russian President at the World Cup final in Moscow four years ago. The pair shook hands and posed for pictures as McGregor was warned by the President's security to take his arm off of his shoulder.
Putin has been at the centre of attention for several months as he ordered Russia to carry out a military assault in Ukraine after years of tension between the two countries. After their 2018 meeting, McGregor praised Putin's leadership qualities and said it was an "honour" to speak with him.
