VIDEO: Conor McGregor attempts to throw a chair at Eddie Alvarez in UFC 205 press conference

Conor McGregor is causing a scene again - shocking we know.

But the Irish fighter’s usual pre-match bravado nearly ended in controversy as he attempted to throw a chair at his American opponent Eddie Alvarez.

‘The Notorious’ played up to a passionate Irish audience at Madison Square Gardens.

And McGregor turned up fashionably late in more ways than one, as he arrived 10 minutes late for the UFC 205 press conference donning a white mink coat.

Alvarez was fuming when he discovered McGregor had stolen his belt before the chaos ensued.
