    What’s going on with the stammering etc? Has that always being the case, is he just nervous or is it a part of a brain acquired injury from fighting ? Serious question as I’ve never heard him interviewed before.

    Sounds like he is very conscious of the words he is using. Trying to choose each word carefully but not leaving a gap. Doesnt want to run his mouth. Plus he has to do the mae culpa over the homophobic stuff later on

    The mythology of Conor's roots is great fun.

    I read the other day he grew up in Tallaght, one of the few Gaelige speaking areas of Dublin.

    Which contradicts what I had read before, which is that he escaped the daily gunfights of the badlands of Crumlin.

    Which is a lot of excitement for a fella who grew up in a semi-D in Lucan.

    Ha, that reminds me of when the Italian Media stated that new Inter Milan startlet Robbie Keane had earned a crust as a Shepard in the rolling hills of Tallaght.

    Nothing wrong with that. Plenty of lads his age and they're too lazy to scratch themselves

    No i love his drive and his charisma dont get me wrong but there is more to life than luxury and the bottom line. Your health is your wealth at the end of the day.

    I wonder can he spell the word EGO?


    Meh, I think he is pretty grounded. Very easy to get carried away with money and oppportunities and 75% of his behaviour in interviews, especially when on pre fight media circuit is a character.

    Imagine Stephen Cluxton trying to sell a GAA match to the media.

    The game he is in requires him to have such a media presence.

    He is with the same woman since he was a teen and a dedicated family man.

    As I said, think he seems grounded, especially as such an affluent and "superstar" status at such a young age.


    And this is from someone who doesn't have much interest in the "sport" he is in

    Deep down he's a decent guy. I don't know why people can't see that.

    I think he's great. He has guts, he sets mad goals for himself and he comes through. Irish boy done good, I think he's a hasher and a hard worker and he deserves the success.

    Who says you have to be humble, where in life does that get you. Everyone for themselves, fair play to him I say!

    Conor genuinely seems a nice lad and I wish him well but money just seems to be his god. Brilliant sportsman, brilliant showman in fairness to him.

    Don't think it is. I think he's very, very clever, wants to make a bastard load of cash and enjoy his life.

    Very well done, you mad b*stard.

    Pretty vomit inducing hearing how he considers his son his "lineage and legacy".
    Can't have that with a girl, no?
    As a man with two daughters, I find that attitude pretty depressing. :(

    I think the problem is all the union workers think they work as hard as Conor by getting up early to drive the train, so they should be earning a much as him. Maybe!

    He seems to be an extremely dedicated family man so that kind of balances out the money argument.

    I think he knows that. He's making as much as he can while he's young and can take the physical punishment of it. I dare say he won't fight too much longer but he'll have a string of MMA academies and merch out his ears and he'll always be a wealthy guy

    I think the problem is 95% of people can't for the life of them see that when he's touring with UFC or doing anything UFC related he's playing a character its that simple

    I stayed up to watch the Mayweather fight, I really enjoyed (after being sceptical about it beforehand)

    It was an interesting match up and a good fight, well worth the €0.00 I forked out to watch it on a dodgy stream.

    Yeah, I'd be skeptical of how nice a guy he actually is, but there's no doubting his genius for promotion and his ability to achieve outlandish goals.
