Conor McGregor 'Confronted Paddy Pimblett At His House' As Alleged Incident Revealed

UFC fighter Dan Hooker has got people talking after he claimed Paddy Pimblett "refused to come outside" after Conor McGregor "drove around to his house" to confront him.

Hooker and Pimblett have clashed in a heated public feud of late, with both men making some personal comments about each other ahead of the latter's UFC 324 bout against Justin Gaethje.

On Saturday night, Pimblett's nine-fight unbeaten streak came to an end after all three judges scored the contest in Gaethje's favour (49-46, 49-46, 48-47).

As expected, Hooker has been scathing in his assessment of the contest. “For me, it was a sloppy fight, so I can’t say that it was a barnburner," he told Fox Sports.

Hooker added: “I want to kick him in the head. Watching Justin Gaethje punch him doesn’t do anything for me. I didn’t inflict any of that damage. Was I happy that Gaethje won? Yes, because if Paddy won I wouldn’t be getting my hands on him for a long time."

Hooker has been stirring the pot as he prepares to take part in the co-main event of UFC 325, where the New Zealand-born fighter will take on Benoit Saint Denis.

And at the UFC 325 Media Day this week, he claimed Conor McGregor once drove to Pimblett's house in Liverpool to confront him.

“It’s common knowledge that he talked s*** about Conor McGregor, and then Conor drove around to his house,” said Hooker. “He sat outside calling the bloke, and Paddy refused to come outside.”

A few years ago, McGregor was in Liverpool as he attended the Grand National in Aintree. Here, the former UFC champion went on a three-day party to celebrate the festival.

At the time, footage of McGregor partying with a man in a treehouse emerged, and it turns out 'The Notorious' was searching for Pimblett - but Hooker's recollection of the story appears to be off the mark.

"He was meant to have turned up at my house, but he turned up at the wrong door," Pimblett said on Pub Talk, as per The Mirror. He was on a mad bender years ago in Liverpool, there was videos of him in a treehouse was with another Scouser at the time.

"My mum had a camera, not a ring doorbell, so obviously I rang my mum and said 'check the cameras there, because if McGregor's knocked at our house it's getting videoed and put on my Instagram immediately' but he never."

Pimblett added: "I wish he did because I would have been like 'Yes Con, what's happening are we going for a bevvy?'"
