Conor McGregor tried to kick Dustin Poirier as the two fighters came face to face in Las Vegas.
The Notorious lashed out at Poirier at the UFC 264 press conference in the early hours of Friday morning Irish time.
McGregor dished out insults throughout the press conference as he vowed to "kill" the American in their main event bout.
He said: "Your'e getting walked like a dog in that octagon."
The former two-weight champion added: "This is my bread and butter, this is what wakes me up in the morning with fire in my belly," he added. "Errors to correct, tactics to prepare for, I've had a great camp and a great focus on the opponent.
"Im going to go through his head, put holes in it and take it off his shoulders. He's done here, this is it for him, it's the end of the road.
"Saturday night he's getting walked around that octagon like a dog and put to sleep.
"This will be beautiful, it will be another feather in the cap, it's what I love to do. I love to come in here, defy the odds, do the unthinkable and put on a show."
