McGregor brawl in Dublin Pub (allegedly).

Pique

According to a thread on Reddit, he was in a pub and decked some Kinehan goon and they're looking for 900k or he's toast.

If what I've read is to be believed about him, then he has a great PR team behind his image. There is a lot of scandals being covered up about him at the moment.

Have heard two specific stories (from actual witnesses) about some of his behaviour out and about in Dublin and hopefully he gets his comeuppance sooner than later.

That said, this is Ireland, when any criticism of people like him is apparently begrudgery and class snobbery.

Graham "the wig" Whelan. Love the names but that name wouldn't scare many, not like "Basher Bates" in the comics.

I mean when you realise the context of it is that he used to wear a blonde wig when assassinating people in broad daylight, it kinda changes things a bit.

It kind of does, yeah....

Who did McGregor assault a few weeks ago ?

Two young brothers. They had gone after a gangster mate of Conor's the week before.

He followed a friend of theirs into the pub who didn't have much to do with the whole thing and started fighting. A chap tried to stop it and got slaps for his trouble. He is a gangster too and his son/ nephew is the wig.

Going to cost him a good chunk to get out of this

He's an absolute degenerate this lad McGregor. Only fools look up to him.

What kind of respectable person fights all the time in pubs, at events (MMA thing in Dublin) etc.

Afraid to fight in the octagon though like a professional would.

When he does go back it will be against cherry picked bums. Run for the hills with the sight of Ferguson.

Conor didn't choose to be a complete bellend, it chose him. Word.

Fighting in pubs shows a lot about what a person is really like, but then again, I wasn't there, so I don't know what really happened. Fighting in pubs, and an adult fighting in a pub shows a lack of class.

Well known knacker gets in a bar fight. Why is this news?

Because McGregor is very very famous and everything he does is newsworthy.

The latest nugget of news emerging is that McGregor ordered that the disabled jacks have a table set up in it so he and his buddies could snort coke.

McGregor and MMA in general attracts knackballs and gurriers like flies to sh1t.

His parents & coach seem to be fairly respectable people. I'd be very surprised if one of them has not pulled him aside and told him to cop the **** on. But equally, I would also not be surprised if he dismissed anyone telling him what he should be doing and not doing.

I can only imagine the domestic issues he is having too at the moment. You can't be going around like this and not have to come home to a concerned partner who you've fathered a kid with. I mean these gang's in Dublin have already shown an appetite for extracting revenge not just on the adversary themselves but anyone connected to them. This is a reality those close to Conor must be aware of.

C’mon spill, just for debates sake?

To think there were calls to award this prick the freedom of Dublin.

Dr. Mantis Toboggan

I see the Irish Independent are now referring to his as a 'well known Irish celebrity.'

Was he ever a 'sportsperson'?

ChikiChiki

Hes well gone off the rails. Dublin is really tiny when it comes down to it. A couple of shares and stuff easily gets out.

Sephiroth_dude

About time someone put those scumbags in there place!

Berserker

Won't damage his brand one bit. The class of person who likes him will probably respect him more after this. 900K is nothing to him.

Maybe the 2nd part of this is true, but the 1st sounds like just some bored Sun journalist wanted to see how outlandish the shiite he could make up !!

He’s a sportsperson in the same way Phil ‘The Power’ Taylor or Stone Cold Steve Austin are sportspeople.

Mcgregor is one of the biggest sports people in the world, never mind Ireland. He needs to be careful or it will be another 2pac story.

He won sportsperson of the year in 2016 - embarrassing that this was given to him considering all these stories.

How is it embarrassing and who should be embarrassed as the incidents occurred after he got his award?

I don't like MMA at all but there's no doubting that it's a fully competitive sport and he's an elite athlete.

Not trying to derail the thread, but he won some Mickey Mouse titles in a ‘sport’ that is a triumph of hype and slick marketing. And then didn’t bother turning up to pick up the award. He’s hardly Brian O’Driscoll or Rory McIlroy is he? Just a roided-up goon in a Louis Copeland suit.
