Machine Gun Kelly was later asked about the scuffle on the red carpet, and he reacted by hitting a reporter’s microphone.

“Someone just told me you had a little scuffle with Conor McGregor on the carpet. What happened?” Variety’s senior culture and events editor Marc Malkin asked the “Bloody Valentine” singer, who was accompanied by girlfriend Megan Fox at Sunday night’s show.

But instead of answering the simple question, he made a strange noise and slapped the mic:

He then grabbed Fox’s hand and walked away.

McGregor  spoke candidly backstage at the awards show, telling “Entertainment Tonight,” “Nothing happened with me, I only fight real fighters, people that actually fight, you know what I mean.”

This is the fight that we all need to happen, but you know it never will. Machine Gun can’t weigh more than 145lbs soaking wet.

McGregor has turned into that washed athlete trying to hang onto relevance.
