Nate Diaz, Colby Covington React to Conor McGregor’s Actions at UFC 223 Media Day

As earlier reported, fight fans were in complete shock with the violent nature of Conor McGregor’s actions during the end of UFC 223’s media day which saw two fighters -- Michael Chiesa and Ray Borg -- injured during the attack.

McGregor and a large number of his entourage stormed into Brooklyn’s Barclays Center on Thursday afternoon to confront Khabib Nurmagomedov after a confrontation the Russian had with McGregor’s teammate Artem Lobov days before.

McGregor threw a loading dolly through the bus window, smashing the glass and injuring UFC Chiesa and Borg, forcing both from the card. Ten fights from the initial 13 that were scheduled will go ahead.

Ultimate Fighting Championship President Dana White was disgusted with McGregor’s actions and even questioned if he was affected by drugs at time.

Others took to Twitter after the situation to get the attention of the Irishman.

First Nate Diaz chimed in to react:

He shouldn't have been trying to punk his boy when he was alone, like a bully. Then he expects not to get rolled on fukn rookie..
And then stay on the bus

Not to be outdone, controversial welterweight Colby Covington tried his hand to bait the Irishman with the following:

If that fugitive @TheNotoriousMMA is still on the lam when wheels touchdown in JFK I'll bring in that coked up leprechaun myself! #KingColbyTheBountyHunter #ufc223 #nerdbash2018

McGregor is now with police after being charged with three counts of misdemeanor assault and one count of felony criminal mischief.
