Hell yes: Conor McGregor shows desire to become Ireland President
In the press conference, Conor McGregor also expressed his desire to get elected as the President of Ireland. He said that he is currently following the politics of Ireland but also wants to continue his MMA career with that.
“F*cking right I will, of course, are you crazy? That’s part of why I want to do it. To be announced as the President of Ireland while having a fight? Imagine that. But for sure, hell yes, hell yes,” Conor McGregor said.
“Last week something happened to me, I went to the White House, and my heart bleeds for my country right now. So, there’s a lot of stuff going on back home, I’m happy with what I’ve done. There’s something else for me that’s in my gut right now and that’s kind of where I’m going. So, we’ll see. Greatness does not rush. There was an opportunity or a deal, we’ll say, to fight in Alcatraz only recent,” he further said.
