The Irish fighter Conor McGregor is the best-known star of the UFC in the world and for this reason, he starred in an approach with Vladimir Putin, although he does not have very pleasant memories of the meeting, according to En el Ring.
At the moment, the athlete is removed from the octagons due to the injury he suffered to his tibia during his fight against Dustin Poirier at UFC 264, but he recently announced to the media that he is in the final stage of recovery.

Vladimir Putin thought he could be poisoned with Conor McGregor’s whiskey
At the press conference, The Irish Mirror took the opportunity to question him about what he thinks about the Russia-Ukraine conflict, especially since the fighter was part of the select group invited by Vladimir Putin to the 2018 Russia Soccer World Cup.
As a courtesy, the former world champion tried to give the president a bottle of his whiskey, but the security body made an unexpected move for the fighter who ended up praising the former KGB agent at that moment, without knowing what would happen four years later with the entry of Russian troops into Ukraine.
“President Putin’s security detail is second to none, as I’m sure you know, don’t mess with Vladimir. So, I gave him the bottle and gave it to his security team. They had to get the liquid out of the bottle to make sure it was safe and maybe it wasn’t poisoned or something, and then they gave it to Vladimir Putin,” Conor McGregor explained.
