Police called to funeral of Conor McGregor's family member after fight erupts

A fight broke out at a pub which was hosting the wake of a funeral for a family member of Conor McGregor.

The funeral was allegedly that of Pamela McGregor, the aunt of former UFC Featherweight and Lightweight Champion, Conor McGregor. The Irish professional mixed martial artist posted pictures on his social media inside the venue, with family and friends with the caption "Pamela McGregor.
