    Was able to watch two minute of that. Questions about Tinder and the freakiest thing she's done wtf. I guess they can't ban drunk people from asking questions or these things would only last a few minutes!

    The freaky question came from a non Irish person... thank god.

    And the lads in the shirts were kinda funny....

    Setanta sports has a SD package and a HD package in their 'Subscribe now section' I wonder do I need to subscribe to the HD section if I'm already paying Sky for a HD Package?

    I don't have a Sky HD subscription and got all the BT & Setanta channels in HD, was a while back when I signed up though so not too sure if it was an offer or not!

    How else would everyone know how big a fan there were if they didn't do that! Do the guy happen to have a beard and a McGregor haircut? He probably wears compression shorts to bed.

    Why do people get embarrassed watching this? They are not an embarrassment to their Country, an embarrassment to themselves is all.

    I think people in here need to relax with the fake outrage at the Q&A, I laughed my ass off at some parts ( guy asking about the 12 pubs with holly & megan not understanding him being the highlight ) - its just people having a good time. They aren't professional journalists coming in with a notebook full of questions , they're a bunch of fans on the lash for a few days in the party capital of the world.

    Holly Said that they had actually looked into it but was just one of those many fights the fell through!

    The Gombeen that asked the questionwas pretty disrespectful though and all like "Come to Ireland and she'll fooking kill ya......"

    What Katie Taylor has accomplished is obviously amazing but the pros are on another level. From talking to people who have sparred with her and some us based pros there is a big difference and I am guessing she hasn't had much MMA training so can't imagine it would go so well!

    How long do you think it would last?

    Ahh. I thought you were going to say Katie would be causing carnage. I believe Holm would destroy Katie tbh. Too fast too powerful.

    I'm talking boxing. You can see Holm has better, faster movement and looks more powerful. It's a ridiculous hypothetical scenario anyway.

    Professional women's boxing isn't all that great- much more depth at amateur level. In boxing- I back Katie

    I happened to start watching just as this twat-waffle got on the mic when I made the post. Some total idiots asking questions after too but also some funny parts.

    Most of it was good natured but the guys just repeating McGregor lines are embarrassing.

    Watching the Q&A now. This is genuinely hilarious. The creepy questions coming from the Americans are embarrassing though.

    Anyone giving out has never watched one of these before. I'm usually asleep with the inane questions.

    Traveling Irish sports fans are known all over the world as being the best behaved fans in the world. Seems people on here just hate seeing their fellow countrymen getting pissed and having a laugh.
