    anyone else follow john on facebook? he comes across as an absolute cnut. he posts up pm's he gets from people who wouldnt be the brightest sparks and makes fun of them.
    what sort of a sad asshole does that? firstly its mean and secondly, why give these people the time of day? cant stand the prick!


    awwhhhhhhh did John post up your message to him and make fun of you too?

    Why does he give these people the time of day? Well why are you giving him the time of day? If he bothers you so much block him on social media so you don't have to see what he posts.

    I enjoyed the book I must say. Interesting to hear how he got into MMA in the first place and all about the early days of Irish MMA.

    To be fair to the man, he built a hugely successful business from literally nothing. And while Conor McGregor does feature heavily of course, you can tell that John Kavanagh has great time for every one on his team.

    in fairness i follow him on twitter and facebook to find out any news regarding ufc or conor etc , but he comes accross as a complete twat too , i know somebody who trained with him and ran some classes in old sbg and he verifies it too that he's a bellend

    just what i've been told and how he comes accross on social media , but then again he could be sound in person but i've never met him so my opinion based on social media and 1 or 2 who know him

    Nothing wrong with that, I do the same. Most of us probably do. Difference is though for most of us don't run on here to call him names or gloat about how many people we've ranted to about him.

    I enjoyed the book. A nice, easy read.

    It's also testament to Kavanagh how many times he could (and lets be honest, realistically should) have thrown in the towel but kept persisting.

    I follow John on social media, I must be missing these posts of his that wind people up so much.

    Criticism seem to include him having a girlfriend, and showing messages from guys harrassing said girlfriend. Hard to know how he would come off badly from that?
