Were you not selected for the Irish Amateur MMA team?

I competed in 2015 in Birmingham. Not sure where you are getting this 2 grand figure out of. I saved my own money for the flights, hotel and expenses and took annual leave from work. I am certainly not a rich boy and work for every penny I have.

Anyway yes, we are completely off topic for this thread. Wish you best of luck in the future.

Nope just heard from team mates who have done the ''trials'', they are good experience for any fighter no doubt but the best around arent gonna be at them, some the lads on that Ireland team now out in Bulgaria are very average and lose regularly at home, not much of a pointer to how people will do at pro imo,

Anyways not a great event in Brave today, Frans the only winner from 4 fighters Kavanagh was out cornering.

Absolutely not true, the selection process is a joke, people winning fights to get onto the team and told they've not enough experience, anyways im going off topic I think Forysth is muck time will tell whose right,

The european bjj open has zero in common with the immafs terrible comparison its 100e to enter them and theres no selection process.

He is absolutely muck cannot box eggs, remember him losing about 5 in a row a year or 2 back I understand hes a team mate of yours but hes rubbish, a medal at the rich boy championships means nothing either its about 2 grand to go to them full of bums.

The Irish Amateur MMA team is open to anyone who can get a place on it. The IMMAF European Championship is the largest amateur MMA tournament in the world.

People make personal sacrifices to compete as a representative on the Irish team as we are not funded like other sports,our athletes fund themselves or find sponsorship. Believe me its not a "rich boy" thing. Its called having a job, a goal and saving. This should be appalled and respected. A gold medal is a huge achievement.

By your rationale winning a European Gold in BJJ would mean nothing to you either as it is just another "Rich Boy" tournament?

He will probably gas after a round doubt he took this serious, last fight on his contract I believe too he wants out to Japan.

I've a beard and sometimes where glasses. Have done for years. No doubt some people think I'd copying all these hipsters, but FFS they copying me.

And you know well I wasn't talking about them using his catchphrases and wearing the same clothes. I said the idea of having a big mouth to get paid was nothing new, and it isn't.

Also, it's awful ironic to see you of all people giving the two lads shît for copying McGregor's vocab:

Why wouldn't I be serious? You know well that when you make a post it stays there for good, did you not expect to be pulled up on being a bit of a hypocrite? I did it mostly tongue in cheek as well, hence the emoji. Just thought it was funny you were slating a couple of lads for talking like McGregor, when you've been at it longer than anyone.

It's not a new concept, boxers (and even pro-wrestlers to a degree) have been doing it for decades before McGregor came along, so anyone that says they're copying his shtick are a bit wrong.

Six or seven lads pointing out that the two of them are morons is hardly grounds to claim their idiocy works.
They're going going to be murdered before the end of the year and crawl back under Conor's ballsack where they came from.
Dannis claiming he's the highest paid fighter in Bellator, he's getting a few grand and a snickers bar if he's lucky, same for Gallagher.

Yes they might be murdered, but their shîtetalk means they'll get paid more than a quieter mixed martial artist would until that happens. Who knows, one or both of them might even go on to have a good, successful career in MMA (I personally doubt it), and then the money will keep getting bigger.

Six or seven lads pointing out that the two of them are morons is six or seven lads that will talk about them and keep them relevant, therefore $$$ for the "two morons". It's not a new concept, boxers (and even pro-wrestlers to a degree) have been doing it for decades before McGregor came along, so anyone that says they're copying his shtick are a bit wrong.

If they don't act in reality like they do on social media, best of luck to the pair of them. They're playing the promotional game pretty well so far, even by just talking absolute bollocks.

Lads, we're all here's talking about James Gallagher, whatever about the shîte he comes out with, it's clearly working for him if there's a big discussion about him on one of the country's most popular MMA forums. The same goes for Danis.

Professional mixed martial artists have short careers compared to most jobs, they're trying to get paid while they can. We don't have to like what they say, but talk is money these days.
