UFC Fighter Felice Herrig Injured In Las Vegas Road Rage Incident Saturday Night

LAS VEGAS, NV. (THECOUNT) — Blame it on Vegas.. UFC women’s strawweight division fighter Felice Herrig was injured in an apparent road rage incident in Las Vegas Saturday night, according to the fighter on Instagram.

Herrig, who wasn’t on the card for last night’s UFC 246 event in Las Vegas, suffered a bloody nose after being punched by a woman during a traffic dispute Saturday night.

Herrig took to Instagram to show her bloody nose while disparaging the entire city of Las Vegas – Saying in the post “Vegas Sucks!!!”

According to Herrig, she was punched in the face during an altercation with a woman in traffic. Based on Herrig’s retelling, she berated the woman by “giving her s**t over stopping traffic over a penny,” according to the fighter.

Herrig wrote:

“Vegas sucks !!!, Some chick got mad at me for giving her shit over stopping traffic over a penny. She then proceeded to punch me in the face. I punched her back but didn’t want to be too violent bc I was protecting my knee and hair. She ran off like a little bitch. THE END What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas”

On Twitter, Herrig made several disparaging comments about Saturday’s UFC event, calling it a “snooze fest” and comparing it unfavorably to boxing and even suggesting it may have been staged. The boxing dig may also be a jab at McGregor moonlighting as a boxer, losing a high-profile match to Floyd Mayweather, reports ComicBook.

Maybe next time don’t yell at locals over traffic when the guest of a city? Ya think?
