TMZ: Conor McGregor, Machine Gun Kelly Had Heated Exchange on VMAs Red Carpet

With no upcoming fights and not much else going on, UFC star Conor McGregor showed up to the MTV VMAs on Sunday night at Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York, and promptly found himself in a squabble on the red carpet with recording artist Machine Gun Kelly.

Sources told TMZ Sports that Kelly denied McGregor a photo, which eventually led to Kelly shoving McGregor, who stumbled back and spilled a drink. McGregor allegedly threw the rest of his drink at Kelly after he regained his balance.

TMZ has video of the aftermath.

McGregor is still recovering from a broken tibia he suffered during a loss to Dustin Poirier at UFC 264 and is using a cane to help him walk.
