There are WhatsApp messages documenting what pond life he is on a near daily basis. Hard to know what you are referring to and tread carefully on a public forum if it's about what the most likely subject is.

I was waiting for someone to bring it up I’d be more concerned about the FaceTime to the girl. He’s a scumbag and when it hits the media he is done.

At the start eveyone did only begruggers didn’t. Conor is the most successful sports star we’ve had in the modern era. Winning 4 world titles in a professional sport in highly recognized sport.

Over the years people got to know the real Conor and detested him( I was in Colaiste Cois Life) with Him as kids. Sadly my son idolizes him now.

I always thought he was a little scumbag too. He might have been saying the right things at the beginning but his swagger, body language and the way he carried on at pre fight build ups always gave away his true character.

No, that's not correct. There are plenty of us out here who don't consider it worthy of being called a sport in the first place.

I have to agree with you Casey, he had it embedded in him, he did do some good things on the way up ala Crumlin hospital etc but I'm sure that was down to good PR backing.

Once the yes merchants surrounded him his true self came to the fore.

Humble ? I don’t think slagging someone off because their from Brazil , another cause of their religion or the countless other times he has made a show of himself in interviews/ press conference is humble . He never was just had good pr telling him what to say , sure you just have to look who he hangs around with cartel guys ! Once a scumbag always a scumbag

I hate the guy. But as I said at the start he never ever spoke out like look at his interview before the Brimmage fight? Completely diff character. I know it was put on but guys that don’t know him didn’t so I’m questioning how they knew and for eejits saying martial arts isn’t a sport your as wise as those eating grace ive practiced BJJ for 16 years it’s a sport.

Never rated the guy. He beat up someone half his size and Irish people paid a lot to watch it, can't cope with people his own size, but people keep paying to watch it.

What did people expect him to do with a 100 million pay day? Build some houses and rent them cheaper than the average rental price? Helping those in his community while still making a pretty good return on his pay day? I mean be serious, no one like him would do that.

Im not going to start an argument or say anything smart about what you said but combat sports aren’t for everyone. I think it’s one of them situations where your a fan or your not but if you look at mma 20 years ago to now it’s crazy how much it’s has grown and changed. I think it’s ignorant to say it’s more bar brawling then a sport when you see how much work the fighters put in. I do agree with you about him being a bad role model for kids though but I don’t think any professional fighter should be a kids role model in the first place.

If you don't see anything wrong with linking up with the kinahan cartel then so be it. I personally lost a huge amount of respect for him when he did, same as I lost it for other boxers who did the same thing.

I obviously understand that the links with boxing, crime and money laundering are always there but mtk have killed off a lot of interest I had in the sport.

He is and a complete professional same with Michael conlan and Katie Taylor, Bernard dunne too that’s not the point I’m trying to get at though. Now I don’t have kids and I’m young so that’s probably going against me here but my thought process is that a role model is someone a kid looks up too and wants to be like so I wouldn’t think a professional fighter is the greatest one because a kid might see that and say I want to be a fighter. I’m a huge fan of the sport and if someone’s dream is to be a fighter then they should definitely try to be one. But its dangerous and Very difficult make it as a fighter. I’m not saying there bad role models I just don’t think a professional fighter is the greatest one to pick

With the greatest respect - you don’t live in Belfast and get all the nuances of Frampton’s impact on working class youth across our community. He’s the best role model we have up here bar none.

I think it’s one of them situations where your a fan or your not but if you look at mma 20 years ago to now it’s crazy how much it’s has grown and changed. I think it’s ignorant to say it’s more bar brawling then a sport when you see how much work the fighters put in. I do agree with you about him being a bad role model for kids though but I don’t think any professional fighter should be a kids role model in the first place."

I do not think its ignorant to say i think mma is like bar brawling its my opinion just like some people say rugby is a dirty and dangerous game a game i played and coached for 40 years but people are not ignorant in saying that its called free speech

Not role models?

Have you ever heard of a guy called Carl Frampton ??

An absolute gentleman. And a hero.

He is and a complete professional same with Michael conlan and Katie Taylor, Bernard dunne too that’s not the point I’m trying to get at though. Now I don’t have kids and I’m young so that’s probably going against me here but my thought process is that a role model is someone a kid looks up too and wants to be like so I wouldn’t think a professional fighter is the greatest one because a kid might see that and say I want to be a fighter. I’m a huge fan of the sport and if someone’s dream is to be a fighter then they should definitely try to be one. But its dangerous and Very difficult make it as a fighter. I’m not saying there bad role models I just don’t think a professional fighter is the greatest one to pick

With the greatest respect - you don’t live in Belfast and get all the nuances of Frampton’s impact on working class youth across our community. He’s the best role model we have up here bar none."

Of course carl frampton is a good sports man and role model when kids join boxing clubs they learn discipline and respect and keeps them on the straight and narrow ireland has loads of great role models across all sports paul o connell being one they do not pick up sack trucks and throw through bus windows to get attention

Mohamed Ali.

He was a man.

Poor background rose above it all. if you haven't read his story then I recommend you do.

Surrendered his wealth at the height of his fame for a principle.

McGregor?

Was never a UFC fan but I was impressed by his drive, determination & work ethic to become the very best at what he does

Unfortunately, he's now fallen prey to the "paradise syndrome" in that he has little if any fulfilment in his life now & will most likely lose his health, wealth, fame and true real friends he has left

Another case of "Be careful what you wish for because you just might get it"

Sports stars are mainly role models for young people in poor areas.

The reason the NFL and NBA are full of poor black people is not because they are bigger than white people, its because they are more willing to do an all or nothing gamble than a white person who might have a job in a bank lined up,etc etc.

Even all the top footballers were poor as dirt at the start. Nearly all boxers come from drug areas.

By letting your kid use them as role models you risk the chance of them ending up with nothing in life.

GAA or Rugby stars would be better role models. They all go through primary and secondary school, most of them go to University, in GAA they all keep working hard at normal jobs. It's gonna give your child a much better mentality than an all or nothing one.

-------------------------

Sportstars are normally role models for ALL CHILDREN AND ADOLESCENTS and not exclusively reserved for people in poorer areas. Does that mean that Katie Taylor can't be a role model for an adolescent female living in Foxrock ???

Truth is we all have role models growing up simply because it's a part of growing up but to say you should pick your role models from GAA or rugby is ludicrous.

Also Mohammad Ali came from a normal background and he's arguably the most inspirational figure in sporting history.

Also if you can explain, would like to know what a "drug area" or a "non drug area" is for that matter?

Many thanks

Tim

He lives near me, see him regularly in his range rover speeding and dangerous driving like a mad man zero fucks given. His ego is too big and all that he has earned has been sabotaged by falling into the rabbit hole of fame and feeling above the law. Money does not buy class unfortunately.

Never took too him from the start, I am the 1st to get behind any Irish person doing well on the world stage but his ego and arrogance put me off him from the get go. Couldn't give a fuck if he worked up front nothing sure we all have what he had before he got to the dizzy highs of mma which obviously made him an even bigger ashole.

Kind of an insult to the everyday hard working person this whole "he worked up from nothing bullshit". He had a home, loving family and a job same as most of us he was hardly destitute

He's a man who knows how to play the media game. Good publicity or bad publicity... Its all publicity and keeps him in the public eye.

I doubt he gives two figs about what any of us thinks as long as he's sitting on his fortune and living the life he wants to live. I suppose he could be admired for living it honestly at least, and not presenting a wholesome persona while indulging his vices and behaviours in secret.
