Money isn’t an issue for Conor McGregor these days, so he may scoff at the lawsuit he’s been served by a security guard who claims he was hit by a can hurled by McGregor during a press conference ahead of his fight against Nate Diaz last August.

-snip-

He claims McGregor made $15 million for his fight at UFC 202 with Diaz and that McGregor “significantly” struck Diaz 166 time during the bout. Fifteen million divided by 166 equals about $90,000, plus the $5,000 in medical expenses, and we get $95,000!

Short article. I think it's funny the way the security guard came up with the 95,000 amount.

Macgregor had a contract to fight Diaz.
He got paid for the time being in the ring, IN WHICH he hit Diaz 166 times.

The security guard had a contract for his time, probably about $12 an hour.
The can was in contact with his head about 1 second.

There are 3,600 seconds in an hour.

$12.00 ÷ 3600= >1¢
