Conor McGregor is once again involved in an alleged altercation.
The 33-year-old fight champion allegedly punched Italian DJ Francesco Facchinetti in the face and broke his nose, via TMZ.
The DJ says he and his wife were hanging out with Conor and his fiancee Dee Devlin, and around 2:30 a.m. on Sunday (October 17), Conor punched him unprovoked.
He also posted a video showing his injuries, adding that they were all “having fun.” Conor had invited them to go to another party, and that’s when Conor reportedly threw the punch in front of ten witnesses.
“I took a punch for nothing. That punch could go to anyone. My friends, my wife, or other friends. That’s why I decided to sue Conor McGregor because he is a violent and dangerous person,” the DJ said.
“Out of nowhere, he threw a punch in the face of Francesco. He was inviting us to another party. Francesco said, ‘Okay, let’s go’ and he hit him. Luckily, he [Francesco] was very close so he [Conor] couldn’t load up on his punch. Francesco flew back, fell on the table, and then on the ground. The first thing that came to mind was ‘are we kidding? Is it a show?’ Then I was paralyzed,” his wife said.
“I turned around and saw that his friends were holding him against the wall because he wanted to continue beating Francesco. Then they took him away. I turned on the light and the guards turned them off. Francesco was bleeding. I wanted to help him and the guards chased us away. He will stay in Italy until October 26th. If you see him stay away from him. Don’t go near him and ask for autographs because he is an unstable and dangerous person.”
There was also a scuffle involving Conor McGregor at the VMAs this year.
