Conor McGregor has had a varied history with law. Back in 2019, TMZ reported footage that showed Conor McGregor swatting away a cell phone that belonged to a fan.

Conor McGregor has had magnificent success throughout his career. He won titles in two divisions and is, by a decent margin, the most famous fighter the organization has ever produced. However, with this kind of popularity also comes unwanted attention.

You’ve always got eyes on you. People watch every move you make, and cameras capures every slip-up. In the case of McGregor, his slip-up occurred outside the Fontainebleau Hotel in Miami, Florida on March 11, 2019.

CCTV footage catches Conor McGregor

A fan stopped McGregor, attempting to get a picture with the UFC star. McGregor, however, knocked the phone out of his hand. He stamped on it before picking it up and leaving with the $1000 (760 euro) phone.

McGregor faced charges of strong-armed robbery and misdemeanor criminal mischief. The Florida prosecutors dropped all charges against the MMA star. State prosecutors said that the alleged victim had gone abroad and stopped co-operating with the police. McGregor had supposedly already settled a civil lawsuit with the victim out of court.

The video is from a CCTV camera that captured the fighter getting involved in the altercation outside the hotel. Here is where the fame proved to be a con when the video went viral and the fighter faced a lot of criticism and backlash from fans.
