Dealing with Conor McGregor is one thing. Michael Chiesa is learning what it’s like to deal with the Conor McGregor legion.
The two fighters’ stories became forever intertwined on that fateful media day in April when Chiesa was just 48 hours away from a fight with Anthony Pettis at UFC 223 in Brooklyn. That fight would be end up being re-scheduled when McGregor made a shocking appearance at the Barclays Center loading area in an attempt to confront rival Khabib Nurmagomedov.
In a clip that has been replayed ad nauseam, McGregor hurled a dolly that shattered the window of a bus that was transporting Nurmagomedov and several other fighters.
