Donald Trump, celebrities flock to see Conor McGregor break his leg

Wherever Conor McGregor goes, the rich and famous will follow and so it proved at his latest bout against Dustin Poirier at UFC 264.

Conor McGregor had lost two of his past three fights before stepping into the Octagon against Dustin Poirier on Sunday but he proved he can still draw a crowd.

Sadly, he broke his leg in the first round and the crowd was denied the show they were craving.

Conor McGregor was in all sorts.

Questions have been asked about what the Irishman’s legacy will look like but regardless of his performances, there’s no hotter ticket in town than a Conor McGregor fight.
