Conor McGregor seen pulling woman’s hair at party on camera

When Conor McGregor steps onto the dance floor, it’s usually best to keep your distance.

The UFC star was spotted dancing with a woman at a Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship after-party in Marbella, Spain, this weekend before his fiancee, Dee Devlin stepped in between the two.

In a video of the party posted to social media, McGregor was seen getting up close with the unidentified woman who sported long, blonde braids and was carrying a championship belt on her shoulder.

After moving closer to her from behind, McGregor was seen grabbing the woman’s hair before she turned around to look at him and then continued dancing.

That’s when Devlin walked between the two and talked with the Irish brawler as several partiers looked on in disbelief. After a quick laugh and some words, McGregor appears to tap Devlin’s posterior and then grabbed her hair in the same manner that he did with the first woman.

McGregor and Devlin have been dating since 2008 and got engaged in August 2020. The couple have four children together, ranging from seven-year-old Conor Jr. to youngest Mack, who was born last year.

The controversial Irish superstar’s latest antics came on the same night that he announced his return to the Octagon.

McGregor, who has not fought in UFC since suffering a broken leg against Dustin Poirier at UFC 264 in July 2021, revealed that he will be fighting Dan Hooker on Feb. 1, 2025, in Saudi Arabia.

Hooker, a native of New Zealand, currently is ranked fifth among UFC lightweights and is on a three-fight winning streak after defeating Mateusz Gamrot in August.

The former champion had been set to return this summer, but suffered a broken toe during training, scuttling a long-awaited matchup with Michael Chandler.

Last month, McGregor spoke about his pending return when attending a boxing match between Anthony Joshua and Daniel Dubois in London, England.

“It will be 2025. We will see. My opponent that I had scheduled… it is what it is. I take it on board and rock on,” he said.

“My job is to go to the gym and be in shape. Whenever it is and wherever it is. I will be 100 per cent ready. I must get two fights in 2025. It’s the promised land.

“Who knows (who the next opponent will be). It does not matter. Whoever, let’s see. I like it to be Chandler. I wish him well and see where it goes.”
