This rampage reached its violent crescendo when McGregor threw a hand truck threw the window of a shuttle bus carrying multiple UFC 223 fighters, injuring both Ray Borg and Michael Chiesa. It was a terrible scene, and UFC strawweight Michelle Waterson is worried what will happen if it goes unpunished.

On Thursday afternoon, UFC lightweight star Conor McGregor showed up at the Barclay’s Center in Brooklyn, NY, and launched a ridiculous attack on a shuttle bus carrying a number of the fighters on the UFC 223 bill. The Irishman’s bizarre rampage crescendoed with him throwing a hand truck through the back-right window of the bus, causing injuries to two UFC 223 fighters, who were ultimately forced off the card as a result.  While many passengers on the bus were rightfully disturbed by McGregor’s assault, strawweight star Karolina Kowalkiewicz, who authored a dominant defeat of Felice Herrig on the UFC 223 undercard, was not. Why? Well, because she’s from Poland.
