    Out of the loop but can anyone tell me why an Irish boxer is sucking the dick of zionist nazis? This makes no fucking sense to me.

      He’s a coked up, far-right lunatic. Multiple assaults, sexual assault, rape, racism, robbery, etc.

      He’s a self-centered piece of shit machismo guy. Of course his smooth brain likes fascism: He’s a part of the “might makes right” mentality. Part of why he punches people for a living.

      I’ve never done coke (because there wasn’t any left for the rest of the world after Conor started) but maybe the amount of coke he’s consumed has something to do with it? 🤔

        Yeah pretty much. I love MMA but I hate the fact that some of the best fighters are the most rotten apples in society.

          A lot of those “best fighters” are also narcissists who game the system. Andrew Tate’s undefeated streak was earned by picking only mediocre fighters.

          I hope the next woman Tate tries to rape shoots him in the face.

            Interesting, I didn’t know Tate was a kickboxer. My impression (prior to reading this) was that the way he talked about fighting sounds like someone who has only beaten up people beneath his weight class.

          If you work in the pro Traumatic Brain Injury factory your going to get Traumatic Brain Injury. He probably was a shithead before, but it can’t have done him any good.

          Worth remembering not everyone in MMA is a westerner and that the fighters from Dagestan might just have different values than you.

      I’m going to guess at “arsehole with an opinion wants to stay relevant”?

      I’m waiting for Jeremy Clarkson to say similar shit.

      It’s the same things chums say when talking about protestors “instead of protesting you should go to gaza and help out”

      As if you can’t oppose bombing people unless you go get bombed yourself.

        He helped launch the boat, though he was never planning on going. Turns out it got misreported and amplified.

        I had to look it up when they got captured because I only saw the incorrect reporting, not any corrections, and assumed the same thing.

        He posted a picture of the 12 volunteers and their names, his not included

            Me neither, don’t feel too bad. It was WIDELY reported that he would be on board but, of course, not the correction.

            I admittedly wish he was on board, albeit for no other reason than to get more GoT fans to realize Israel is controlled by monsters

          Yeah when I went on the flotilla’s website when they were captured and didn’t see Liam’s farewell video, I was a little confused. Thought he was going too. Obviously not

    As much as I dislike the way people use words like “destroys” and “slams” to describe a dispute between two people, that burn was very funny.

        Was this the fight where Khabib jumps out of the ring and attacks Conor’s coach? Seems they cut that from the video if so.

          I believe he attacked someone who was not McGregor’s coach but was close to them. McGregor was talking mad smack and so was his entire team.

          This trash talking is also the reason why Khabib did not let McGregor go instantly after McGregor tapped out. He waited for the referee to jump in and maximize McGregors pain.

            Ah I see, this was one of the few fights I’ve watched start to finish whenever a friend invites me to a fight party. I remember Khabib jumping out after the lackluster fight and asked the room (people mostly stopped watching after Conor tapped out), “hey guys, is this part of the fight?”

    So… not that I care what a raging asshole thinks, but… was he supposed to be in the boat?
