It's seemingly all kicking off between Conor McGregor and UFC welterweight champion Tyron Woodley.

Earlier today, Woodley took a pop at McGregor for his half-hearted posturing with a chair during last night's UFC 205 press conference, as things got heated between 'The Notorious' and a furious Eddie Alvarez.

At today's weigh-in check, the pair crossed paths backstage, and a tense encounter was caught on camera by MMAFighting as a silent McGregor stared Woodley down before uttering, 'What's up'.

You can view the staredown below:
