But what took Conor McGregor to hit “Burnie” so hard!? During a Game 4 halftime staging between Miami and Denver to promote painkiller spray, the Heat mascot found himself facing off against Conor McGregor for a pseudo-fight.
Except that MMA fighter obviously does not know how to play comedy, sending a huge left hook to “Burnie” who collapsed on the ground! Conor McGregor finished him off with a second, more restrained blow, before administering the famous painkiller spray, while “Burnie” was evacuated, dragged to the ground…
Despite the discomfort of the sequence, we thought that the mascot fulfilled his role perfectly.
Except that The Athletic revealed yesterday that the painkiller spray wasn’t enough to get ‘Burnie’ back on track and that the protagonist, who suffered the two blows to the face, actually had to be treated in the emergency room at a hospital nearby the Kaseya Center, before returning home, where he would be well, with real painkillers.
