    What? He was clearly recording himself too, or else he wouldn't be in the video.

    Not when Conor looked to see what was being recorded, could see just his eye

    Someones read the god delusion recently. Atheists are just as dull with their patronising tone as religious bigots.

    Like wonderfullife says other top level MMA coaches manage to keep personal opinions to themselves, not put them out on platforms where they know people are looking.


    Imagine tommoro he'll be in full hype mode* for this interview. Its the hecklers in crowds that really bore at these things. His interview in Belfast - drunks thinking theyre funny screaming ****. Yawn.

    * possibly with assistance from social performance enhancers

    I was 20 actually, when I first read it. I didn't meet John until I was 24, thanks for presuming though!

    Is this interview thing tonight? Any links? haha

    This experience with conor mcgregor has me a bit confused.

    Why Manchester out of all places?

    Why hasn't he done one in Ireland?

    Is he that big in the UK?

    He was also mentioned on Eastenders the other day. I think he's offish made it,

    Presumably the request by a company came in with a big offer. Or am I mistaken and McGregor has arranged this himself?

    Either way, he's predictably/fashionably late.

    Well I suppose it's a great thing he is liked in the UK. Just didn't think he would be liked this much that people are paying for an experience with him!

    Not just full of drink by looks of things.

    He needs to make a decision what he wants to do. Keeps saying anything can happen. It's getting boring.

    Meh. Just don't see why he'd invite the hassle given the current climate.

    There's a ton of black people on Twitter going mental already.

    I don't think he thinks before he speaks!!

    This stuff is only good if he has a fight booked.

    Otherwise it's just boring.

    Conor reveals he's having a baby boy and "his spawn will break his own records".

    Conor is a brilliant fighter, no one ever said he was very bright :pac:

    In saying that he is rich and I'm poor so I can't be saying much :o

    Absolutely if people will pay fair enough, I probably would if it was in Ireland!

    Why is it in Manchester and not Dublin?

    It all depends what it costs and what you expect from a night out. It's kinda similar to going to the darts. Most people go for the craic and the darts are more of a backdrop to the night out as opposed to being the focus of hardcore fans.

    So people probably thought alright I'll pay 50 or 60 go out with the lads, have a few photos to put on Instagram......

    It's when it gets to crazy money like hundreds is when you need to ask questions of your life :pac:.

    Surely the tickets where more than 50?

    That's 250k. I'm sure his fee would be way higher.

    Exactly, something to do while you get drunk with the lads and have the bantz. Darts, cricket (barmy army lads), concerts, even stuff like the Trinity Ball, same basic idea

    As for costing hundreds.. well fools and their money :D

    Floor tickets were 200 up to 400, pounds.
    250 to 500 euro or so. I can't imagine he'd get the thousands required to sell out in Dublin. If he could, an event organiser should have put it on.
