    Corsica is French not Italian France has a “prove your innocence “ approach to justice

    I didnt say Corsica was Italian.

    Conor is alpha af in fairness, most would trade their left testie to have half what he says.

    So much hate on this thread, i tip my hat to Conor he is handling all the false accusations well.

    "he raped my sister but he was just being you know alpha, bro"

    Would you care about money if you suffered an attack like that?

    I know I would want justice.

    They probably don't care about the money but feel they have no other choice.

    Would you take him on knowing the type of individual he is, the people he associates with, the lies he spreads about your reputation & which his supporters believe. To have the ordeal, your reputation, your past sexual history all disclosed in court knowing that your private life is about to become public, knowing you will be torn apart on social media etc., knowing you will be intimidated, knowing that you will be living in fear.

    This is why most victims of sexual assaults have difficulty pursuing justice. Fear is a massive deterrent, predators know this and use it against their victims. I think people who do pursue justice in the courts are incredibly brave but can understand why so many don't. It is not as easy as you make out.

    Such a tight ship that he was on trial over 20 times himself, in six of those cases, his parliament politically interfered in the process and passed laws during the trial that altered the verdict to "no conviction".

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trials_and_allegations_involving_Silvio_Berlusconi

    And he wasn't held in detention as "guilty until proven innocent", because that's not a thing there at all. Not that it's even of any relevance to McGregor's case.

    Whoooooshhhhhhhh

    In theory this is correct but in practice the Italian legal system very much places the burden on the accused to prove their innocence as was seen in the Amanda Knox murder trial a decade ago.

    That was 1 trial . Italy is no different to the rest of Europe when it comes to guilty/innocent

    I would take him on, sure your anonymity would be protected

    I would think the typical person would want justice, now there be a scenario where intimidation could play a factor, however, the state should be able to step in and protect victims.

    Do you think we have MiB sticks that would make the attacker forget who he attacked?? And do you realistically think the state can protect the victim of a sexual assault, and their family, for any length of time?? Where do you live?? Other than cloud cuckoo land I doubt that’s an option anywhere.

    Because dangerous people, because hard core fans, because she would become known, because the witnesses are his mates, because she wants to forget, because the trauma of a trial is hard on victims, because sides rates in rape cases are very low.

    Enough or need more?

    The mistake this time is location. He's not in crumlin with his mates and a few local girls. His victim probable knows people, has money and doesn't give a **** who he is

    So you haven’t a clue why and your just guessing. You don’t know if it happened, what it is that allegedly happened and why nothing has happened about it.

    My point was being asked of somebody who claims to know personally one of the people in question. I’ve heard the rumours as well as you, but I’m not adding one and one and getting 5.

    Would you take on somebody with multiple instances of criminal behaviour And a number of convictions in a court of law about an incident that occurred in a hotel and undoubtedly has CCTV to confirm parts of the victims testimony?

    What do you think?
    It’s not like your taking on the parish priest in 1950’s Ireland.

    I would like to bet he was happier when it was himself training in Dublin while signing on.

    The white trash jet set offers all the trappings and hollow transactional relationships you want but its empty

    Designer clothes, flash cars, selfies with fans, whiskey. Its all bogus. Status garnish

    I would say most of us were happy when we had very little like a clapped out banger and money for a few cans of bavaria/dutch gold


    Keep telling yourself that if it works but come on it's not just about designer clothes, flash cars etc.


    Freedom, being elite in your field, unlimited women/sexual harams, enough resources to do whatever you want would make one seriously happy.

    "Dude" you sound about 16 with a username to match

    Most of his home country think that he's a feral scummer and decent birds wouldn't go near his cock - check out the youtube vid below for the sort of skanky ass that is in his "harem"

    His collection of mates range from convicted drug dealers to meathead mma bufoons (look-up Charlie Ward for example). Normal people don't want to know him.

    Freedom - who knows how much longer that will last?

    How naive are you? Watch a birds actions, not her words. I guarantee you 90% of the women in Ireland and in fact the world would sleep with him given the chance.



    It takes hard work to become a pro fighter, your response alone tells me everything i need to know about you, typical hater.



    I'd be surprised if he was hanging around with "normal people", he is regularly associating with A list celebrities, pro athletes etc. How does your inner circle compare?



    Stop being jealous mate, it's pathetic.


  • Posts: 0 [Deleted User]


    Lol. I'm no more jealous of McGregor than the man in the moon.

    What Irish athletes or celebrities is McGregor mates with?

    Even international ones you might see in a once off photo op with but that's it.

    They know what type of person that he is. One not to associate with.

    some one who is really alpha does not need to try so desperately hard to be flash and impress his little tribe of scumbags

    he is a scum bag addict with too much money ,



    whiskey is ****e too


  • Registered Users Posts: 20,753 ✭✭✭✭beakerjoe


    While I cant really give a percentage, the majority of decent women wouldnt want anything to do with him.

    Yes he has worked hard, no doubt give credit where its due, is achievements in MMA are not easy.

    Accustions like these do not refelct well on the human he is.

    Videos of him sucker punching older men show his bully mentality.

    Videos in bed with other women, who arent his wife, do nothing but tarnish his repulation.

    He isnt pre evil, but he certainly is far from a decent bloke.

    He is a dominant male in terms of his personality. Its not always a good thing. I dont begrudge him living it up with the cash he has earned.

    I take offence to him attacking people and not bring brought to justice.

    an alpha type personality isn't a bully or a addict ,

    if he committed the crimes he was convicted of in Ireland in America he would be doing jail time not getting a fine and slap on the wrist

    Hed be out, most likely sued to high heaven over the assault tho

    I'd take the money and gun.

    First they came for the socialists...

    Serious question to all men on this thread, do you seriously think u could batter him?? I mean just you vs him one to one, no weapons. Are you a hard man?? If so do you think you can batter a lad who is skilled in unarmed combat??

    Katie Taylor would batter every fella on this forum. In batches of 10. You'd ****e your pants if mcgregor came running at you.


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,325 ✭✭✭Man Vs ManUre


    Katie is a pure savage in the ring. Outside she is boring as the queens Bridget Jones knickers. I still reckon I would beat her in a fight if she attacked me and wouldn’t stop when I ask her nicely. Mcgregor on the other hand, even though I am heavier than him, older and have won a few streetlights in my time, I think he would kick the sh1t out of me.

    Taylor would finish you so quick you'd swear you'd been surrounded.

    Yeah right. A trained professional vs some keyboard warrior i know who my moneys on.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,910 ✭✭✭begbysback


    Taylor and McGregor together, I’d batter both of them at the same time.

    An alpha male would never hit a woman. Nature does not work out that way.

    Taylor, alike every other woman, could twist McGregor's nuts in a violent fight one day & it could feel like a revolution in combat sport history.

    I wouldn't expect it to happen either way because that wouldn't be appropriate if they're both good friends.
