Conor McGregor Lobbies for ‘Lockdown United’ Against Coronavirus Pandemic

Conor McGregor has some strong feelings regarding the coronavirus pandemic and the steps his homeland should take to combat its spread.

In a video statement, McGregor passionately lobbied for Irish leaders to impose a lockdown of the country. Ireland currently has more than 1,000 cases and six deaths as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.

“While we are all currently debating a full lockdown, I feel that we must,” McGregor said. “Any time spent debating this is needless time from the clock. I know a good, tough fight when I see one, and we have one on our hands now.
