\"\"Conor McGregor is expected to be charged with assault after allegedly punching a man in a Dublin pub.<\/p>\n

Video footage of the incident, which is alleged to have happened in April at the Marble Arch Pub in Drimnagh, Dublin, was published online yesterday.<\/p>\n

The video appears to then show McGregor hitting out towards the man, before being quickly escorted out of the bar.<\/p>\n

Garda\u00ed have confirmed that investigations are ongoing, and it’s understood a file has been sent to the DPP, but no arrests have been made.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, the head of the UFC says Conor McGregor should know better.<\/p>\n

Dana White said people are only talking about it because it’s Conor McGregor.<\/p>\n

He said: “You’re talking about a pub in Ireland? Do you know how many guys get punched in the face in a pub in Ireland? Yeah, a lot.<\/p>\n

“The only reason people are talking about it right now is because it’s Conor. When you’re not a regular guy, you’re a high profile guy and a professional fighter, you can’t do it.”<\/p>\n
