Newly-released surveillance footage shows Conor McGregor taking his anger out on a fan's smartphone by smashing it violently into the ground.
A new CCTV clip, released by TMZ on Wednesday, shows the casually-clad Irish MMA star doing his signature power walk in front of the Fontainebleau hotel in Miami on February 11.
The Notorious, followed by his entourage and fans, stops suddenly and appears to shout something with hands cupped around his mouth. Among those who can bee seen clicking restlessly in attempt to take a selfie with the larger than life MMA persona, is Ahmed Abdirak.

Encircled by paparazzi, the Irishman then approaches Abdirak, extending his hand as if to shake his. But instead, McGregor grabs Abdirak's phone, taking the former aback, smashes it to the ground and stomps on it repeatedly. At the same time, a heavy-built man, apparently from McGregor's security detail, tackles Abdirak preventing him from interfering with the assault on his gadget.
It is unclear what set McGregor off, but Abdirak appears to be the only one who used camera flash as he was taking snaps of McGregor.
