UFC : CONOR MCGREGOR ISSUES PUBLIC APOLOGY FOR ROUGHING UP REFEREE AFTER GATECRASHING OCTAGON TO CELEBRATE WITH TEAMMATE !

Embattled UFC Superstar Conor McGregor has issued a public apology following his bravado inside the Octagon in Dublin where he roughed up a referee after he scaled the Octagon fence and gatecrashed to wildly celebrate a teammate's win.

McGregor pushed the referee, Marc Goddard, and slapped another event official.

Conor McGregor @TheNotoriousMMA, inarguably the most famous MMA fighter to date, was reportedly in danger of being banned from the sport, for his violent behaviour towards the referee.

"I let my emotions get the best of me", said McGregor in his statement posted on Facebook and Instagram.

"I’ve always learned from my mistakes and this will be no different", added the Irish Showman - - the undisputed King of UFC.

I sincerely apologize for my behavior at last weekends fight event in Dublin. While trying to support a loyal teammate and friend, I let my emotions get the best of me and acted out of line. As a multiple weight UFC champion, executive producer, role model and public figure, I must hold myself to a higher standard. The referee Marc Godard was making a horrendous decision in trying to pick an unconscious fighter up off the floor and force the fight to continue into the second round. Even against the wishes of the said fighters coach. The fight was over. After witnessing my fighter in a fight where the worst happened and the opponent passed away from his injuries on the night, I thought the worst was about to happen again, and I lost it and over reacted. I am sorry to everyone. I sincerely apologize to the Director of the Mohegan Tribe Department of Athletic Regulation, Mike Mazzulli, all the officials and staff working the event, Andy Ryan and his fighter John, two stonch ones that put up a great fight every time. That side will always have my respect, and lastly every one of my fans. I love yous all! I’ve always learned from my mistakes and this will be no different.
