Awards shows are recipes for disaster. The party atmosphere tends to easily get out of hand for some, and there have been notable moments of violence and hubris over the years. Conor McGregor throwing a drink at MGK and trying to punch him pales in comparison to Onyx firing live ammunition at the 1994 Source Hip-Hop Music Awards, but folks still want to know why he did it.

Why did Conor McGregor throw a drink at MGK?

Machine Gun Kelly and Megan Fox wowed on the red carpet with their outfits and began trending on Twitter on September 12, 2021. During the night's events, a scuffle broke out between Conor McGregor and the "Rap Devil" artist. If you're asking why a pro-fighter was present at the Video Music Awards, it's because Conor is a good friend of Justin Bieber.

McGregor was tasked with handing out the "Artist of the Year" award to The Biebs, but early on in the night, he was seen being held back by an event security guard as he tossed a drink at The Dirt star.

Apparently, the altercation started when Conor, excited to meet MGK, approached him for a handshake and picture. MGK's guards pushed Conor away.

Conor, who was using a cane to help himself walk due to a broken foot after his second consecutive MMA loss to Dustin Poirier, spilled his drink and dropped his walking stick after being rebuffed by MGK's protective detail.

That's what prompted Conor to toss his drink at MGK. The former UFC featherweight/lightweight champion then followed up with a swing in MGK's direction, but was quelled by security once again.

Conor, who was interviewed about the incident afterward, said that he didn't "even know the guy" and only "fights real fighters ... not Vanilla Ice boy rappers" in a clip uploaded by ET.

Conor has notoriously had run-ins with non-fighters in the past, like when he punched out a bar patron for repeatedly refusing a shot of his Proper 12 Irish whiskey in the past.
