What did Conor McGregor have to say about sending the Miami Heat mascot to the hospital?
When the Miami Heat mascot playfully squared up against 'The Notorious' at the NBA finals game, little did he know that he was going to end up in the hospital. A video of the incident shows the mascot playfully squaring up with McGregor, before the Irishman launched a left hook that floored the mascot.
McGregor then followed it up with a punch to the mascot's face, after which he was taken away. It all seemed to be part of the act, but in reality, the mascot was injured and sent to the hospital.

"That was part of the skit. It was all a skit, we were backstage. All is well, it was just part of the show. It blew up, you know? I recently made my acting debut and I'm not a bad actor."
