Conor McGregor finally speaks out after being accused of 'DJ assault'.. to attack bitter UFC rival Nate Diaz

CONOR McGREGOR broke his silence after being accused by an Italian DJ of punching him.

The Notorious slammed UFC competitor Nate Diaz instead of addressing the assault allegations against him.

McGregor was accused of punching Francesco Facchinetti on the face, leaving him with a bloody nose and lip in front of his horrified wife.

The 33-year-old Irishman ignored these claims and he attacked Diaz via Twitter.

Boris Johnson's ex-aide Dominic Cummings bizarrely advised McGregor's bitter UFC opponent Diaz not to renew his UFC contract.

McGregor quickly responded to Cummings' comments that Cummings had a "lanky streak" of p ***'.

McGregor replied to Cummings' tweet: "Advised who?" Is this a lanky streak p*** thinking he is business-savvy?

"Hey bro! You've had 15 fights in UFC and you were on 20k fight 20k win.

"Hahahaha 15 f***ing fights. UFC!

"Eyelid hanging from your head and handed you a 20k check before tax. You know who made you.

Diaz, 36 years old, has only fought once since 2019, and is ending his current contract with the organization.

Although the MMA star's story is a big topic at the moment it was not expected that Cummings, a political strategist, would weigh in on his views.

Cummings said to Diaz, "Do not sign a new UFC contract. You will make more money outside."

"AND @danawhite will make a deal for the @TheNotoriousMMA tri-fight, but you'll have more leverage and earn more money outside.

"Look at how they screwed @GeorgesStPierre. Now waiting for the contract to expire."

ASSAULT ACCUSATIONS

Cummings's advice was in response to Diaz’s short, cryptic Twitter message that simply stated: "I'm fighting somebody."

Many believed McGregor was distracted by Facchinetti’s allegations.

Police were called to investigate a dispute between the UFC legend and the musician at a Rome event at St Regis Hotel.

McGregor and Dee Devlin, McGregor's partner, were in Italy to witness the christening in the Vatican of their youngest child Rian.

However, the trip ended in a disappointing manner as Facchinetti (41), and Wilma Faissol (39) made the claims to their 1.5million combined Instagram followers.

Facchinetti uploaded a video reliving the incident, and showed off his lip cuts.

Wilma also posted a series Instagram stories in which she accused the fighter of attacking her husband. She claimed that Notorious could have killed her.

It is not clear what caused the alleged melee.

SunSport has been informed by the Italian Police that they were called at 5:30 AM after the incident.
