WATCH: Fighter Conor McGregor Celebrates MMA Win With Another Fight

MMA fighter Conor McGregor, 29, instigated another fight with a referee when he jumped into the ring to celebrate SBG Ireland teammate Charlie Ward's victory.

Ward defeating John Redmond in the Bellator 187 event was supposed to be a celebration, but it quickly turned into a chaotic rumble when the notoriously wild McGregor got into a heated exchange with referee Marc Goddard after bursting into the cage.

The fighter was in violation of entering the cage, not as a licensed cornerman, and Goddard tried to keep things civilized. His efforts proved futile when McGregor shoved him.

He was escorted out of the cage, but McGregor was not finished with his tantrum. As he tried to get back into the cage, he slapped a Bellator staff member, Mike Johnson, in the face.

Mike Mazzulli, the president of the Association of Boxing Commissions and Combative Sports, issued a statement on Saturday confirming he was in contact with UFC, and ABC member commissions that license McGregor, regarding his violent conduct.

Mr. Conor McGregor who was a spectator at the time, disrupted the event by scaling the cage prior to the conclusion of the bout. Mr. McGregor’s conduct jeopardized the health and safety of the bout participants by delaying necessary medical attention to the fighters that were injured during the round.

In addition, Mr. McGregor assaulted Referee Mark [sic] Goddard and a Bellator staff.

The MTDAR has been in consultation with the upper management of the UFC regarding Mr. McGregor’s inappropriate and unacceptable behavior.

The clip was posted on Twitter, and it sparked debate among users as well.

McGregor's behavior was no shocker as his reputation precedes him.

McGregor, who is also a mixed martial artist, is no stranger to controversy.

He had a scuffle with Goddard last month when McGregor approached the cage and tried to coach teammate Artem Lobov on his match with Andre Fili.

When Lobov lost the decision, McGregor launched into a rant, using homophobic invectives against Fili in a conversation with Lobov backstage that was caught on camera. Those posts with the clip were deleted. But McGregor's fiery reputation remains.

Stephen Colbert Makes Somber Plea To Americans In Wake Of Charlie Kirk's Death

Late-night host Stephen Colbert had a somber message for Americans as he addressed the assassination of far-right activist Charlie Kirk, stressing that "political violence only leads to more political violence."

Kirk died after an unidentified gunman shot him in the neck as he—ironically enough—mocked victims of gun violence at an event in Utah Valley State University. Kirk's murder has galvanized the far-right, with President Donald Trump and his surrogates claiming without evidence that rhetoric from Democrats is responsible for Kirk's death.

TikToker Hilariously Calls Out Target After Champion Pants Feature Awkwardly-Placed Front Pleat

Sometimes you can just tell when something was designed *for* women, but was not actually designed *by* women.

Take, for instance, the new pleated pants available at Target from the Champion clothing line. While there's nothing wrong with pleated pants and they certainly have a suitable spot in the workplace, the latest rendition of Champion pleated pants are, shall we say, NSFW.

Woman Goes Viral After Revealing How Her Obsession With Matcha Landed Her In The Hospital

Let's be honest: Too much of anything isn't good for us. It's all about the balance!

But the media and social media trends have taught us that certain things are really good for us, encouraging us to be like the "very mindful and very demure" girls and take care of ourselves. One such example is drinking more matcha, especially if you really like coffee or think you have a caffeine addiction.
