I Love my brick
|
![]() After supporting Katie Taylor at ringside recently it seems like Conor McGregor is sick of being on the sidelines. Game 4 of the NBA Finals, where Miami Heat took on the Denver Nuggets, seemed like a perfect opportunity for the Dubliner to become the centre of attention again. And what better way to do so than knocking out a mascot during a halftime skit? Taking to the court to promote his new pain relief spray, McGregor took part in a fake fight with Burnie, the Miami Heat mascot. However, the MMA star took things a step too far when he landed a left hook on Burnie's face, levelling him to the floor. He then dropped a brutal hammer blow while the fuzzy orange mascot lay on the ground and sprayed him in the face with his promoted product.
It turns out the spray didn't have much of an effect as, according to reports, the man inside the suit was taken straight to hospital, where doctors gave him pain medication. No further treatment was required. The 34-year-old was subsequently booed as he started to promote his 'Tidl' spray after the beloved mascot was dragged off the court, with the crowd more on the side of the downed Burnie.

Depends what was agreed on I guess, I presume they discussed that first/had some sort of rehearsal or something?

The ‘fake fight’ that was planned more than likely didn’t include a hook and an elbow to the face, I honestly don’t know how he isn’t locked up tbh, he’s proven himself over the years to be an arrogant thug

The only thing I’d buy that had anything to do with Connor is toilet roll with his face on it.

The Miami Heat mascot reportedly had to attend hospital after being punched by Irish mixed martial artist Conor McGregor at basketball’s NBA finals.
What was a promotional stunt during game four between the Heat and Denver Nuggets ended badly as former UFC champion McGregor floored ‘Burnie’, who was wearing oversized boxing gloves, with a left hook before adding another punch as the stricken Miami mascot lay on his back. ‘Burnie’ – who is described as a “rough, anthropomorphic depiction of the fireball featured on the Heat’s logo” – was dragged off court by three people and it was later reported that the individual inside the mascot suit was taken to the emergency room of a nearby hospital for treatment. The Heat have declined to comment on the incident, but it has been reported that the mascot is out of hospital and recovering.

He’s in the wrong, simple. A professional boxer/fighter should never use their fists when outside of work on people who aren’t professionals
