Conor McGregor responds to police investigation over Instagram post

Conor McGregor decided to get some stuff off his chest on Friday night.

McGregor addressed Floyd Mayweather's comments about racism as well as offering a prediction for his next fight, but the Notorious wasn't just talking trash. The Irishman also took time to apologise for the Instagram post that led to Irish police looking into the circumstances behind McGregor posing with an imitation gun. https://www.instagram.com/p/BAOA3AHrztJ/ The UFC featherweight champion took a dig at the media, during the apology, saying: 'I apologise for having the air-soft in public. I was simply rehearsing for a potential upcoming film role. 'I understand that the more traffic a story can get the more revenue it generates. So I understand and respect that the media must create these stories and these situations even if at times it is at other people's expense. 'We've all got to eat. And I eat well. So I will not complain.'
