Urijah Faber admits Conor McGregor confrontation 'does look like it was rigged'

Urijah Faber understands why some have come to the conclusion that his brief skirmish with Conor McGregor was put together for the benefit of the cameras.

After all, it was a FOX camera which caught the drama backstage at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in the leadup to Friday's UFC 189 weigh-ins, and it just happens to turn out that Faber and McGregor were announced Sunday as the coaches of The Ultimate Fighter 22, which will air on FOX Sports 1.

"It does look like it was rigged," Faber said on Tuesday's edition of The MMA Hour.
