Lot of talk that this was part of filming for an advert for his whiskey. Not idea how true it is or not. Bloke’s a cûnt either way.
Never said he was stupid.He wasn't. Used to train in the same SBG as him near the black horse and he was a bit of an attention seeker but essentially a decent lad. Seems to have bought into his persona a fair bit. Either that or he's stirring up publicity deliberately, he's far from stupid.
That's not true though, take it from someone in Dublin that would know.
Starting out he wasn't like this at all.
The Mayweather money changed everything. Doesn't help that he's hanging around with some very dodgy characters. I won't say more but google is your friend, or just ask Ewan McKenna who is looking for him :-)
They've got their fingers in everything with Irish pro boxing and Irish MMA tbh, I wouldn't say there's one fighter that hasn't had to deal with them at some point. Was more the Drimnagh crowd he mixed with back then thoughNever said he was stupid.
He played the image and made millions as the biggest draw in the sport.
Never liked that showboat mouthy image though.
Definitely let his reputation grow bigger than his talent. Pity because he has/had talent.
Woman I work with's son trained in the gym when he was starting. He really looked up to him. Even my own young lad thought he was great.
But he mixed in dodgy circles even then. Someone mentioned it earlier, but I think the Kinahans are pulling the strings there.
I hope it isn't for an advert as it it's condoning violence to youngsters watching. I'm sure ASA will inundated with complaints if it is and gets shown on TV. Anyone punching a defenceless old guy in a pub needs needs a fuckin' good hiding IMO, and McGregor will get his comeuppance no doubt.Lot of talk that this was part of filming for an advert for his whiskey.

The money from the mayeather fight will be gone in a couple of years whilst the Coutinho money will still be being spent long after the we depart this world.Is the Mayweather money bigger and harder than the Coutinho money?
