UFC fans have been left disgusted after a clip emerged that allegedly showed an interaction between Conor McGregor and a Khabib Nurmagomedov supporter.
McGregor and Khabib have had a long and well-publicised rivalry dating back to 2016, when the pair had a shouting match backstage during UFC 205 weigh-ins.
The Irishman, along with several members of his entourage, then attacked a bus that contained Khabib and several members of his team in 2018.

Several fighters on the bus, which had several panels of shattered glass, were forced to pull out of UFC 223 and president Dana White called it 'the most disgusting thing that has ever happened in the history of this company'.
In the Octagon, McGregor and Khabib eventually fought at UFC 229 in October 2018 with the UFC Lightweight Championship on the line.
Khabib won via a neck crank submission in the fourth round to inflict a first UFC defeat on McGregor, who has only had three career fights since then - losing two - and none since July 2021.

The Russian, meanwhile, retired from the UFC entirely in 2020 and although many fans expected him to eventually reverse the decision, Khabib hasn't fought since and is showing little indication of doing so.
But the pair continue their back-and-forth loosely to this day, with McGregor recently approached by a fan at a function.
After one fan asks McGregor for a picture, another appears to shout 'Let's go Khabib!' in the background.
The Irishman is then alleged to have spit in the face of the Khabib fan, before then telling him: "I spit in your face. What do you do? Nothing."

He then aims another inaudible insult at the supporter. It is not yet clear when or where the incident took place, with the first footage of it being published on Monday. LADbible Group has contacted McGregor's representatives for comment.
