I'm not even a big fan of it myself but to lazily denigrate it as a product solely for unintelligent angry men says more about them. They usually throw in overweight and TapOut T-shirts into the mix too. The sport does massive numbers still and has boasted plenty of intelligent folks in its ranks over the years including engineers, teachers and people who went on to represent their country in government. PS McGregor is an arsehole.

Omackeral wrote: » Actually the thread is about Conor McGrgor punching an old guy in a pub if you're going to be that pedantic. Simple question, I'd have thought though. It's a discussion site is it not? Are you afraid of being shown up as a hypocrite? So again, simple question... is boxing ''a sport for thugs played by thugs''. I won't ask about other sports, don't worry.

I despaired at the time of the press conference in Dublin where every one was raving about McGregor's actions in insulting, bullying and intimidating Aldo with drunk, coked up idiots cheering him on. What about the "hilarity" of that punk kid Nate "The Great" from SBG asking a smart arse question to huge encouragement and cheers. McGregor was then an embarrassment to both the sport and to Ireland, but all these wannabe tough guys saw him as something to look up to. He is a scumbag drug taker, bully, wife cheater who with his "billion" can't even support the child he has in the UK and all of a sudden now fans are trying to turn away from him - you reap what you sow, and I look forward to what it hopefully a quick demise. You can train all you want but you can't buy class.

Omackeral wrote: » You're very defensive for some reason aren't you? Jog on, dream on etc. It's a very simple question. For example, I don't give a sh*t about hurling but I can offer the opinion that it's a sport for very skilled players. Can you not offer an opinion on boxing?
