The man who plays Heat mascot 'Burnie' was sent to the emergency room after being punched by UFC star Conor McGregor in an on-court bit, reports said. The man, according to The Athletic, received pain medication, was sent home and is doing well. More:
As part of the skit, Burnie, who was dressed in a fighter's robe and large gloves, moved toward McGregor at midcourt in a fighting stance. McGregor, who was promoting a pain-relief spray, floored Burnie with a left hook and then landed a straight punch to the face of the mascot's headgear as Burnie was lying face-up on the floor.
McGregor, the first fighter in UFC history to hold simultaneous championships in two different weight classes, is serving as a coach in Season 31 of"The Ultimate Fighter" reality television show.
