Specifically when the game's complexion turned more physical.
A guy who breaks people's faces for money and then bounces (his words, not mine), it's not exactly a surprise that McGregor is into the rough stuff.
First, Jimmy Vesey threw a big hit on Matt Irwin, then Tom Wilson started jarring with Barclay Goodrow. It wasn't a full fight or anything, but it was enough to get the double-champ going.
Worth mentioning that right after McGregor said he breaks people's faces for money - yada yada - Dustin Poirier knocked him out in less than two rounds.
Just saying.
