Irish MMA fan David Martin has been banned from UFC events after getting involved in the controversial scenes that followed the UFC 229 bout between Khabib Nurmagomedov and Conor McGregor.

A fracas broke out after the bout, and members of Nurmagomedov’s entourage jumped the cage fence to confront an exhausted McGregor. Martin jumped into the octagon in an attempt to calm things down, saying he feared McGregor “could have been killed.”

He later returned to his seat before leaving the arena at the end of the event, but this week Martin, an Irishman who now resides in California, revealed he had received notice that he is no longer welcome to attend UFC events.

Martin posted a copy of the letter he received from the UFC to his Instagram page, which has since been removed, explaining that he would be unable to attend future events.

The very definition of a FANATIC.
