Conor McGregor appeared to flee a family funeral in Merseyside yesterday after a brawl broke out inside a pub.
Footage posted online shows the UFC star rapidly getting into a Range Rover alongside his rushing security team.
Fans were waiting outside the pub, but were told to move away as McGregor got into the car.
McGregor has been attending the funeral of his aunt Pamela when reports of a fight breaking out among mourners were made.
It is unclear whether McGregor was involved in what has been described as an 'altercation' by police.
