Hinting at a potential run of the role of President of the Republic of Ireland at the beginning of this month, UFC star, Conor McGregor has seen any potential aspirations for the ceremonial role squashed and knocked down by a host of Irish senators and TD, with one claiming they wouldn’t nominate the Dubliner to “wash the dishes” – nevermind enter the political sphere.
McGregor, a former undisputed lightweight and featherweight champion under the banner of the UFC, has been sidelined from the Octagon since he suffered a fractured left tibia and fibula against former interim champion, Dustin Poirier in the pair’s trilogy rubber match back in July 2021.
