Always up for the craic. He met the Cork footballers on their hols during the weekend. They had a bit of craic together. | |||

"But in other sports you're not awarded for inflicting physical pain are ya? That's the issue with mma and boxing etc. that's what makes it barbaric there's very little intellectual argument the other way, if there is I'm open to hearing it. " well technically in football gaa and rugby you tend to gain advantage by tackling the other person. eg shouldering the person etc | |||
"IL ask one of his team mates. " They won't tell me but I can bet its a spin off as to much money is on the table | |||
| |||
| |||
"I think you'll agree that thats a false equivielecy. Shouldering etc is not at all the same as the sole aim being to punch somebodies head off in a cage or a ring. " It's not the sole aim. Submissions wins are huge part. | |||

Submissions wins are huge part. " you are right only if there ground work skills are there strong point.Mc gregor comes from a standing fighting background. | |||
"IL ask one of his team mates. They won't tell me but I can bet its a spin off as to much money is on the table " sponcers have pulled out so it most be true that him.The death of a fellow mma man would of had a lot to do with it.He is still the best fighter in the world in his weight and from Ireland . | |||

The sole aim is to win the fight. A lot of fighters accomplish this by submission. | |||

" Mcgregor has been grappling for over 10 years His best buddy Tom Egan started in my club in newbridge before movin to dub and john kavanagh about 13 years ago and he says in interviews they started together although mcgregor did start boxing earlier than that. Point is he's well versed in ground game Egan was about 16 and already black belt in karate then. First irish man to fight in ufc too | |||
"Jilly heard that late last night and my 1st thought was fukkkkk Jilly is gonna be gutted " Still not convinced hes retired | |||

"Why do men not like him...? He's a great athlete and has brought great joy to Ireland I'm delighted he's not retired and love all his fights and that tight little ass of his N " Just jealous eijits and people who don't understand the science and skill behind their art ot fighting (wait for the replies on THAT! Ha) I was at the night that Carvalho died after his fight and it was efinitely due to the refs not being quick enough to stop fights, fecking crazy!!! I don't really follow the sport though, just sometimes follow the odd time what McGergor's up to cause it's great to follow an Irish person be top and putting us on the map, people don't realise what he says in media is all a persona and it's part of trying to mentally beat their opponent before getting in the ring/octagon Ali did it and people thought he was nuts or a twat for doing it but what do they say about him now eh!!!? Ok he doesn't do it as poetically as Ali and sometimes you do think "Ah seriously McGregor, what did you say that for!?" But he's a decent lad in real life/behind closed doors. People giving out about about him saying he's retiring by twitter is all the plan to put UFC under pressure to have the public in a panic about it and to show his worth. If ANYONE else said in the the MMA world, said it, I'm sure they'd be like "ok, see ya" or it wouldn't even be reported cause right now it's all about McGregor in this sport he could have another loss and people would still wanna see him fight before anyone else. So whether postive/negative or just questioning comments on Twitter it obviosuly worked! I have to laugh with some people, saying "really couldn't care about him" they why come onto a thread and make the statment or "he's a scumbag" when he does charity or visits kids in hospital or walks for about twenty minites away to a car where a girls boyfriend is cause he couldn't go to meet him due to being in a wheelchair. If that's a scumbag then sign me up!!! | |||

"What a tube McGregor is . Every fighter has to do the promotional work and all the press stuff, Conor thinks hes bigger than the sport itself, doesn't get his own way and throws his toys out of the pram. He should be glad he was getting the rematch, anyone who actually follows UFC and isn't just a casual McGregor fan will know how rare it is to get a rematch straight away, off a loss" Pro mo work , more like a world tour.. Diaz is now stating he wont fight ufc 200 unless it with Gregor ..that is purely for money.. Gregor wants to fight and will do pro mo work but bot to the extent white wants him too coz he just wants to fight.. | |||

Gregor wants to fight and will do pro mo work but bot to the extent white wants him too coz he just wants to fight.." The UFC offered to fly out all his equipment and training partners from Iceland or wherever but he still refused. I'm sure every fighter would like to pick and choose what promotional stuff they do, unfortunately it doesn't work that way, it's still a business, and they are still essentially employees. Conor ridiculed Aldo and Dos Anjos because they didn't show up because of injuries, now he's doing the same thing to Nate without even a legitimate reason, other than being a whiny brat. | |||

"All about money " .."ain't a damn thing funny You got to have a con in this land of milk and honey They pushed that girl in front of the train Took her to the doctor, sewed her arm on again Stabbed that man right in his heart Gave him a transplant for a brand new start I can't walk through the park cause it's crazy after dark Keep my hand on my gun cause they got me on the run I feel like a outlaw, broke my last glass jaw Hear them say "You want some more?" Livin' on a see-saw It's like a jungle sometimes It makes me wonder how I keep from goin' under.... | |||
