    It is impossible to get a super injunction in Ireland

    Even if it was a normal injunction, his fans would be all 'what a super injunction'..best injunction I've ever seen..

    This is nothing to do with defamation law.

    Well I said libel laws, as was reported in the New York Times.

    I mean think about it, of course The Examiner or whoever could report his name in tomorrows paper, but it would end up costing them a fortune if they did.

    As far as I understand it, in Ireland someone on trial for sexual crimes can only be publically named on conviction and only in certain cases (for example where the victim waives rights of anonymity)

    No, a lot of people just don't like continuous and sustained scumbaggery and worse.

    He's a clown if he thinks he deserves to be given equity ownership. As Dana White said, if he wants equity then he needs to pay for it like everyone else. Why should they just give him free ownership.

    Ah c'mon, McGregor makes Keane look like Sonia O'Sullivan.

    Knackers expect to get things for free or no effort.

    Roy Keane caused problems on the pitch and Saipan. But off the pitch, he wasn't being a complete nutter and getting in regular assault scandals...

    Breaking someone's phone I wouldn't count as assault.
    The trolley was scummy though.

    McGregor is the most famous and popular worldwide.
    31 Millon Instagram followers. Worldwide he is famous.

    The people you mentioned there have nothing on him

    No way is he the most famous Irish sportsman ever. Stupid comment typical of his fanboys. Do they realise a huge amount of ppl don’t even consider mma a sport and never will!

    None of them are even close to McGregor. Brian O'Driscoll for fook sake, how many people outside the rugby nations know who he is? He's a nobody compared to McGregor.

    Well keane wasn't getting pictured in the papers with his hand up between the legs of low-level skanks (who claims she had his child) while his long-term partner is at home with the kids.

    Hanging out with convicted drug dealers all the time? Wasn't doing that either.

    Human garbage behaviour.

    Yep, Keane was known to be incredibly respectable off the pitch. He's literally known in Cork for all the work he does in relation to guide dogs.

    What has that got to do with how famous he is?

    Rugby is watched by about 475 million people, O'Driscoll was one of the best for a time.

    2 million is the record for an MMA event.
