Conor Macregor, utter twat

Sucker punches an old man in a pub who declined a drink. Tough old man who appeared minimally impacted.

Thinks he's bulletproof. I predict someone will test drive his theory.

Well, I expect the old man said something a bit more colorful than "no thank you". Something more like "I ain't drinking your piss water ****e, made by a fake distillery owned by a washed up wanna-be Yank "boxer" who's greatest hit was throwing crap around a parking lot after getting embarrassed by reporters".

Something like that. Oh, and his "whiskey" IS piss water ****e, I've had it.

The best part is how damned fast his handlers yanked him away. Like, milliseconds. So, either the whole thing is a fake, or they're so used to that crap that they started moving the moment he squared up his shoulders. Not that squaring up helped him...since he hits like a girl.

I'm like Mc Who?

looked him up.

Weird, competent fighters are not typically such insecure fools.

Probably less than 1% of the fighters behave like McGregor, so "complete douchebaggery" exists only in your imagination.

McGregor's act is to behave like a bigmouth douchebag (pretty much like our Orange Man Bad), and oddly, he keeps up the act even though he has been put in his place at least twice in competition. I guess some people are unteachable.

Then he has the balls to walk into a proper Irish pub, and try to sell his piss water swill to the old men there.

"Proper Twelve", the name for a whiskey that is being made by a company that he started, with the inferred claim that it's 12 year aged, when he started the company like 2 year ago.

Ah. Some have one way, and only one way, of dealing with everything.

I believe the old gentleman said, "I don't want to drink that schit," and went back to his Guinness.

Ridiculous d bag's handlers were stepping in to stop him when he pours a drink for the guy who already told him no more than once, prior to the sucker punch.

Could be he was in pain from an infected tat and had a hair trigger that day

No respect for the guy at all. I wish Mayweather had beaten his azz the way Ali whipped on Patterson and Terrell when they refused to call him Ali.

I love how none of the patrons flinched at Conors douchery.

Just another day at the pub.

That wasn't a sucker punch. Dork threw the dregs of his drink in the old guy's face.

I don't claim to know MMA guys too much but I will say that the guys and gals at the MMA gym I go to to teach wrestling (hobby) are really nice folks. The owner cant do enough to help me out with providing space basically for free.

I think a lot of people get into contact sports because they were bullied at some point so they tend not to be jerks. They get that it sucks. McGregor was probably either bullied or was a pain in the ass kid (perhaps a learning disability) who the parents needed him to do something so they signed him up for what was available. It can work out real good or real bad. He's the minority I believe.

the entire production is douchebaggery. Twatwafflery. bar fight in a cage. women beating the **** out of each other? tatted up attention whores selling some fake persona to the flat brimmed hat crowd.

I guess the python owning steven segal wannabes of the world needed a new 'sport' to watch.

again, complete and utter douchebaggery, twatwafflery and asshattery.

You get a glimps of the glass still in C.M.'s left hand as he is led away by his posse.

Plus, if a fighter like C.M. popped that old guy as it appears he had, the guy would be sprawled out cold (if not dead) and probably bleeding. C.M. winds up and lets it loose. But the arc of the punch and his hand is not consistent with a punch.

The old guy continues talking to the other old guy on his right after supposedly being sucker-punched.

It seems to me a punch like that would have launched the old guy into tomorrow if not next week.
