If the real conor mcgregor was posting on this thread, he'd probably trail off mid sentence..

30-11-2017 9:24pm

Ah heaaaaaaaar bud, he's some bleedin' knacker in that bleedin' tracksuit on the 9 oclock bleedin' news. No amount of money will take the cultureless howaya knacker out of that big a knacker.

What a classless knacker!!

He really had me fooled, I thought it was all just an act.

How come his post was removed,it would of been interesting to hear his take on this no?

The Legend Of Kira · 30-11-2017 9:51pm

Watched the news clip when Conor Left court.

( News reporter ) " Have you any reaction to the threats on your life ? " .

As the car is leaving the area ( Conor Mcgregor ) " Come & get me " .

https://twitter.com/rtenews/status/936233874815897600

If all these rumours are true about threats to his life etc- I don,t get as to why he,d appear & come off as being antagonistic towards the people who are meant to be behind such threats by saying " come & get me " he could of just said " I,ve no comment to make " or he could of downplayed it by saying " Don,t believe everything you hear " if all these rumours are true then he,s playing with fire by coming across as antagonistic towards the kinda people rumoured to be behind such threats.

The scumbag goes to a fight in a three piece suit and a court appearance in a tracksuit! That's what scumbags do to show the court that they don't give a **** about their judgments. Very telling in my opinion. McGregor is the kind of utterly horrible individual that I spent my youth in Tallaght trying to avoid. All the money in the world won't change that.

I guarantee you McGregor sees the irony. He was making himself out to be Martin Cahill there with the hood up.

yew_tree · 30-11-2017 10:20pm

Ironic that he dresses in 10,000 dollar suits but shows up to court dressed like a toerag.

Parks on a double yellow line, with the doors open and loud music on.

Nothing but a d1@head is McGreggor. I’d imagine if he was up in court in LA or NYC, the authorities would have taken a different outlook.

Esel · 30-11-2017 10:21pm

He said he turned up in court to show respect.

I honestly reckon some of McGregor's cult-like fans would drop to their knees and start sucking if their favourite skanger happened to cross their path. Conor this, Conor that, as if they're his mate. Some of the stuff you read is just bizarre.

This guy has shown time and time again he's a classless twat. Hopefully we hear no more of this "he's just pretending to be a knacker to get PPV buys" nonsense.

Autochange · 30-11-2017 10:39pm

hood up like the general. The general used to leave the keys in his bike when at court. McGregor left the doors of his car wide open.

I neglected to pay a parking fine in 2008 and found myself in court in Swords. Thinking like you, I wore my best suit.

EVERYONE else rocked up in a trackie and runners. I felt so out of place. These folk were all up for relatively minor offences, many of them traffic related. So much as I'd have thought like you, it doesn't appear that common.

Arghus · 30-11-2017 11:00pm

I think I'd prefer him if his name was McGrogor.

There is SOME limit to that informality.

Last weeks Liffey Champion newspaper had a story of one gentleman who was unable to enter Kilcock District court because he had shat himself in the back of the garda van outside.

How unfortunate. :cool:

I guess it depends how often you are in court , like you most people are not regular attendees ie not criminals.

this aint McGregors first time in court for driving offences

Actually iv lifted the paper and Im having a second closer read here and I apologise, I am wrong in some details.

He didnt shat himself, he shat all over the inside of the van.

Judge: "Where is he now?"

Counsel: "Still in the van judge"

Judge: "Would you like to go and consult with your client out there?"

Counsel: "Absolutely not judge" :pac:

Isolt · 01-12-2017 12:12am

There is something going on with him lately, he seems to be losing grip a bit. Not sure if the baby mama story from that girl in Liverpool is true, she claims she is due his baby next month. You wouldn't know what to believe. I hope none of it is true for his girlfriend's sake as she comes across as a lovely, sensible woman.

sabat · 01-12-2017 1:26am

He is in his bollocks worth €140m; I reckon it's less than half that, probably about the 50 mark. He had about 20 prior to the Mayweather fight, for which the figure of a $100m purse was exaggerated. Let's say (generously) he got $80m for that, take away taxes, currency conversion, training and other overheads and it starts to reduce quickly.
The good news is he spends it like someone worth many times what he actually has and has peaked in his earning potential already; my guess is we'll be seeing him in bankruptcy about 2025.

I had a quick Google and it turns out I was massively overestimating his purse:

https://www.cbssports.com/boxing/news/mayweather-vs-mcgregor-fight-purse-the-money-each-fighter-will-bring-home/

Remember, this is a $ figure from which 40% income tax and his overheads must be deducted. He might have got a few million from sponsors but they'll be looking for a way out of those contracts (which almost certainly contain clauses on personal behaviour) following his stunts over the last few weeks. Like I said, he's on collision course for bankruptcy if he doesn't get his sh1t together fast.

It's good news that someone is going to be bankrupt?

Don’t forget he fought mayweather when he was under contract with UFC so they got a big % of his purse for allowing him to fight

Your own article even states that's the bare minimum purse. He got a bare minimum of 30 million to show up, the real money is in the PPV.

In 2016, for the Nate Diaz 2 fight, and then the Alvarez fight, both combined made him $27 million. Yet his purse was only $3 million. It's all about the PPV. You can't just look at the purse, the purse means nothing in comparison. He's earning far more than you estimated.

You may want him to be broke, but he's not.

Do you really think his kid is going to grow up and be a hooded scumbag, hanging around Dublin causing trouble? His kid will live a lavish lifestyle until (or if) the day comes when his da has blown all his money. Private schooling I'll bet.

Boom_Bap · 01-12-2017 10:32am

Jaysus, some of the stuff here is shocking.

He has been talked about in the media as being associated to gangs for god knows how long.
He has a run in with gang type people and blows up in the media.
There are stories of him fleeing the country and bounties on his head.
He appears in court and assumes the persona outside the court of the most known gangster in Ireland who has had movies made about him. I'm suprised that he wasn't wearing a mickey mouse t-shirt.

He's a young man, filthy rich and taking the p*ss out of the media.

Jerichoholic · 01-12-2017 10:35am

He gets paid every time he wears someones watch, wears someones suit or drives someones car. He's got his own promotion company now unlike every other UFC fighter, he'll continue to make money long after he's retired He's smarter than 90% of people on this thread thinking he'll go bankrupt.

Well, given that he was posting his tracksuit and runners on instagram as well hashtagging the company, you know he made more money while in court than the actual fine issued.
And playing up to the media has the huge logo plastered all over news, gossip sites, parody sites.

Bingo.

The same people that fall for this crap are the same people that enjoy gogglebox and the kardashians. Ie morons.

Because he's offensive...

When did we cross this line? It feels like it wasn't too long ago when being a cokehead, loudmouthed, classless, sexist, chav toerag was an undesirable label... when did it become 'fashionable' within a certain section of society?

Years ago, drug users and drug dealers hid in the shadows and were despised. Now, they hide in plain sight and - worst of all - people idolise them...

Sad...

I have nothing personally against McGregor. He is what he is. A product of his environment. In a way I admire the way he has turned absolutely nothing into millions of euro... the people who made that so easy for him, however, need to take a look at themselves... the saddest case of the Emperor Having No Clothes there has been in quite some time...

Who are you referring to who made it easy for him? I don't know much about him

I could be bowling along at that sort of speed and get overtaken by a crazed nordy (usually) going considerably faster.

If you are doing a ton (in old money or mph) on the M50 or M1, then you should be taken off the road and your nordy friend!!

Not that I doubt you may be capable of driving at speed but these roads are public spaces - you're sharing them with drivers of widely differing abilities. And you have a duty of care to take their safety into account if you or they do something unpredictable.

I agree completely but the car he is driving wouldn't take half a second to get from the speed limit up to 100mph. I would be guilty of opening up the bike on an empty stretch of motorway so I can't really judge him for the speeding.
