Conor McGregor punches partygoer to the ground in Ibiza dancefloor altercation
Footage obtained by The Sun shows the moment McGregor decks the reveller
Conor McGregor has been seen punching a partygoer to the ground on the dancefloor of Ibiza's exclusive Pacha club in a shocking moment that was caught on camera.
Footage obtained by the Sun appears to show the Dubliner decking the person with two blows in the incident in the early hours of Tuesday morning.
The 36-year-old is seen in conversation with a man before putting his arm around his shoulders and then hitting him with his left hand while holding a glass of alcohol in his right.
The former UFC featherweight and lightweight champion then takes another shot as the man stumbles to leave the reveller on the floor.
According to reports, McGregor carried on partying at the venue while the man who had been punched was thrown out.
The incident followed a boozy day session for McGregor who had earlier been pictured dancing with former glamour model Katie Price.
Donning red shorts, a cap and sun glasses while puffing on a cigar, McGregor and Price celebrated at a wild day time party at Wayne Lineker's famous O Beach club.

This is not the first time McGregor has been in an altercation in Ibiza having stamped on a fan's hat after a teenager threw it towards him as he celebrated his 34th birthday in July 2022.
And in 2019, the former MMA fighter sucker-punched a 50-year-old man in Dublin after the customer declined a shot of McGregor's own-brand whiskey.
The fighter had been offering customers shots of his whiskey, Proper No Twelve at the Marble Arch pub in April that year.
Desmond Keogh, who was seated at the bar, had refused the offer when he was suddenly punched by McGregor who was fined €1,000 over the incident.
In an interview with ESPN in August 2019, McGregor acknowledged he was 'in the wrong' and that the altercation was 'not who I am'.
"That man deserved to enjoy his time in the pub without having it end the way it did," McGregor said at the time
"I tried to make amends and I made amends back then. But it doesn't matter. I was in the wrong.
"I must come here before you and take accountability and take responsibility. I owe it to the people that have been supporting me."
McGregor who has not fought since he broke his leg against Dustin Poirier in the summer of 2021, was scheduled to make his long-awaited return to the octagon in June 2024 against Michael Chandler at UFC 303.
However, the bout was scrapped after McGregor injured his toe in training.

Jessie J says she 'misses being active mum' as she recovers from cancer surgery
Jessie J has said she is "missing being an active mum" as she recovers from breast cancer surgery. The Price Tag singer announced in June that she had been diagnosed with early breast cancer and that she would be undergoing treatment. The 37-year-old posted to her Instagram story on Tuesday providing an update after her surgery. "For those asking for a health update," she wrote. "I am 11 days post-surgery. I'm good. Missing being an active mum/human the most." The artist, whose real name is Jessica Cornish, and her partner Chanan Safir Colman, had a son, Sky Safir Cornish Colman, in May 2023. Jessie added: "But it's been nice to slow down and Sky is having a blast with Nanny and Grandad. "It's still uncomfortable / a little painful but I can handle that. I'm doing my exercises and taking all the healthy things. I have been trying to eat super clean." The singer also revealed she has stopped taking pain medication, saying it is "just not my thing". The story featured a picture of Jessie's wound drain, a tube which helps remove excess fluid or blood that can accumulate after surgery. She asked her followers: "Anyone else who has had this, did you feel like you are walking around one of those dog / duck toys. I carry mine on the floor when I'm home so the gravity can help the drain. Hoping it's out by the end of the week." The artist has battled with ill health throughout her life, having been diagnosed with a heart condition aged eight, suffering a minor stroke aged 18 and having briefly gone deaf in 2020. The singer said she is "feeling positive and grateful", and asked fans not to worry if she "seems a little out of it" in public. "If you do see me out, sitting in a park or coming out of a doctor's appointment or eating or walking or anything, and I seem a little out of it. I am," Jessie said. "It's not personal.
