    Probably off his head on something. Can't stand the bloke but hardly 'strong armed robbery'..no idea what they define that as but seems like an over reaction. Fan was probably being a dick too. Still, hopefully they'll lock him up over there and we can stop hearing about him.

    He has strong arms

    The "fan" showed Connor WhatsApp messages that had allegations that Connor was involved in serious crime in Ireland and called him names.
    Connor flipped took his phone off him and smashed it.

    He's not fight training so? He could have been a legend but he doesn't have the brains, his demise will make the media more money then he ever made in the octagon. The scobes nationwide will have to find another idol.

    He was arrested, again, ….. :rolleyes:

    It is a big deal. As he is a worldwide (?) superstar of MMA.
    It would be like Ronaldo getting arrested …

    For smashing a phone some idiot was waving in his face.

    My point is there is much more important news than this.

    It’s really not a big deal.

    This won't be his last arrest nor will it be the biggest charge against him.

    I respect his fighting skills but outside of that he is scum

    This is sad watching someone destroy their life and career.
    He'll end up paying out his fortune to people to keep them quiet, after he does something stupid.

    What a fool, will the heavy boys fly to america to silence this story?

    I know he tends to do himself no favours in terms of keeping a low profile, but I wonder how many people on here would manage not to snap once or twice with constant cameras in their face no matter what they do and no matter where they go for the last 5 years?

    He can’t have it both ways I know, but it must be very frustrating and annoying to now not even be able to walk out of a hotel the odd time without being jumped on.

    There’s also a big difference between politely asking for a photo and being a ****, and I wouldn’t be at all surprised if said “fan” was being a prick. He’s also with his son and the rest of his family. Maybe something was said or done there?

    I highly doubt the fan asked for a photo and then Conor just grabbed said phone and smashed it. There’ll be a lot more to the story.

    How is it sad? It wasn’t like anyone expected him to settle down as a good family man, own a load of Chopped franchises, and maybe have an interest in a few horses.

    He’s a vulgar and obnoxious knacker, like so many people involved in combat sports. He’s taking the path most people would have expected him to. I’m surprised his former fans took so long to realise this. Even though you’d never associate UFC fans with above average intelligence in fairness.

    The fact he actually stole the phone as well, after smashing it, would lead me to believe there was photos taken of something, or someone, he did not want photos taken of.

    Bit pointless destroying one phone if the photo is already on WhatsApp its most likely been circulated on masse

    Twitter is saying a sentence of between 21 months and 15 years in a state prison for anyone found guilty of the second degree felony of strongarm robbery.

    American legal tradition of trumping up charges to discourage the defendent from defending them and encouraging the defendent to accept a plea bargain. Expect a single no contest plea to some misdemeanor and a sentence of probation
