    What is he doing?  I honestly don't know if I'm following a world class mma fighter who's about to be a father, or a party boy.  I have the ultimate respect for one but not the other.  I get blowing off steam.  Seems like it's something more.  It's been great to follow him through the years.

    When you're that famous it's a fine line:)


    Hopefully the baby can bring him back down.
    “He’s got a lot of money now that keeps him occupied,” Nelson said. “He can do a lot of stuff. I think he’d be all right for a year. He always has something cooking. Right now, it’s the Mayweather fight, and that seems like it’s going to happen. I think he’ll keep himself busy one way or another.
    “He needs to keep himself busy in some way, because he’s a pretty hyper guy,” Nelson laughed. “He’s not just sitting around the house. If he wouldn’t have anything to do, he’d probably be up to no good. He’ll always figure something out. He needs excitement.”   - Gunnar Nelson
    I think Gunnar summed up what's currently going on.

    It must be tough for him looking for something to keep himself busy, pity he can't just do an mma fight or something crazy like that

    Forgot to site ESPN on Gunnar Nelson's quote

    Yeah, Too bad he doesn't have a title that he could be defending or something. :rolleyes:

    Can't wait to see those flip up glasses all over Dublin in the coming weeks.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7 Drobes


    I'm really trying to cope with the non-training version of him.  This is the one occasion where time isn't flying.  Bring on 2018!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,131 ✭✭✭Burial.


    Good grief the state of him


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 318 ✭✭hewhoscares


    I think he looks cool. Takes a next level confidence to wear something out there, and another level to make it look good.

    How he looks doesn't matter one bit to me.  It's part of his character.  It's more how he acts that I'm trying to adjust to.  I think the impending fatherhood thing is why I'm struggling.  I know when he steps in the ring, he'll bring it, so I'll cope ;)

    Why do you have to cope at all? do you need to follow his everyday movement......I'd class myself as a big McGregor fan but if he's not in the fight game I'm really not too interested, let him get on with it


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,850 ✭✭✭Depp


    Gotta hand it to him, lad doesnt give two fcuks

    Embarrassing for who exactly?

    I seriously doubt he is even the slightest bit embarrassed.

    Just goes to show money cant buy you class.

    He should have went to the "marble arch" or "four roads" pubs, where he would have been better appreciated.

    "cope" may not be the right word and enjoying following his career and monitoring him on a daily basis are two different things.

    Hahaha, love it... the man has zero f**ks to give, he's deliberately rubbing it in the face of everyone who scoffs at him. Good on ya Conor.

    He'd look cool in a no fuks given, rock n roll sort of way if he didn't have his own name tattooed across his torso. Needs to sort that out badly.

    His career is on hold .....him making an 'appearance' at the Grand National has **** all to do with his 'career'


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,449 ✭✭✭Call Me Jimmy


    It takes some balls to rock the pedo glasses fair play. Only thing I'll say at the moment (not based on that pic) I get the same vibe off him from before the Dos anjos fight, where he's soaring in his own head, hope when he comes back to fight in the ufc he remembers why he lost to nate the first time.

    Just realised like, **** he won't be fighting a real fight for a year. I 'knew' it but never really thought about it.

    My girlfriends mother had one of those flip up sunglasses attachments on her glasses when she came to visit last month. I threw them on my glasses one day messing about. Didn't realist I cool I was at the time. #swag


  • Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators Posts: 18,296 Mod ✭✭✭✭CatFromHue


    It's not about what you're wearing it's about what you're not wearing now

    I'm gonna rip one arm off my shirt:pac:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,131 ✭✭✭Burial.


    Forget Penneys I'm pretty sure my nan has that shirt material as her net curtains in the kitchen.
