Conor McGregor and Cody Garbrandt nearly came to blows in the UFC gym on The Ultimate Fighter.

McGregor clashed with Team Alpha Male's Urijah Faber and Garbrandt on the set of TUF back in December 2015.

'The Notorious' was slagging off TJ Dillashaw, who was a special guest coach on TUF 22 for Team Faber, to 'The California Kid'.

McGregor questioned Dillashaw's loyalty and branded him a "snake in the grass" which prompted an angry response from Garbrandt.

"Where's the little snake? Where's the little weasel? Has he got Duane [Ludwig] with him?" The Irishman provocatively asked.

Faber responded: "I think you just don't want to fight either of us."

'No Love' soon got involved and said: "That's why I can't let you sit and talk shit about T.J. without saying something because that's my f**king boy."

McGregor then challenged Garbrandt: "You gonna do something about it?"

He replied: "I'll do something about it," before getting out of his seat and shoving McGregor which ignited a huge brawl.

McGregor continued to egg on Team Alpha Male until Dillashaw arrived. He then confronted the then UFC bantamweight champion and told Faber to "man up" as a result of him controversially teaming up with Duane Ludwig.

Of course, Dillashaw went onto leave Team Alpha Male to begin training full time with the Elevation Fight Team.

Garbrandt, who stuck up for his then teammate, fought Dillashaw twice in the UFC as he suffered two stoppage defeats.

Dillashaw, however, voluntarily vacated his UFC bantamweight title after a failed drug test.
