Us Irish were always lumped in with blacks [No blacks, no dogs, no Irish], so its a pretty weak set-up if thats the case.

Also Conor doesnt give a f**k about race, just $$. I can tell you that as fact.

Of course we understand that, but I am talking about them using this to play to the crowd that doesn't know or care about such things. All they care about is humping this race war narrative.

Looks like McGregor has already nipped it in the bud.

"Floyd Mayweather, don't ever bring race into my success again. I am an Irishman. My people have been oppressed our entire existence. And still very much are. I understand the feeling of prejudice. It is a feeling that is deep in my blood. In my family's long history of warfare there was a time where just having the name 'McGregor' was punishable by death. Do not ever put me in a bracket like this again. If you want we can organise a fight no problem. I will give you a fair 80/20 split purse in my favour seen as your last fight bombed at every area of revenue. At 27 years of age I now hold the key to this game. The game answers to me now."

I really dont know whether to love or hate the guy! :D

I walk past his mother's house everyday when i walk my dog (although im not sure if she's still there, i dont know her or the family at all). Getting to where he is now, compared to this area deserves respect.

He's such a cocky prick though!

I usually can't stand athletes who do nothing but talk shit but CM is loveable as fuck...I bet hanging out with him as friends would be a fucking blast and hilarious z

He's entertaining, you have to give him that. He knows how to sell himself and make himself a character. At this point, loving or hating him is driving engagement, and that's a win for him.

100% agree. There's nothing worse than evoking no response whatsoever. If you're equally loved and hated, you immediately draw twice the crowd. Its a thin line between the 2. Thats why Undertaker (WWE) had such appeal.

McGregor and Mayweather both set to make over a hundred million from this fight. They'll push the race angle if it helps sell more PPVs. But it's all about the money, first and foremost.

Yep, mark my words, this shit is going to be all about race leading up to the fight. I wouldn't even be surprised if there is a false flag event at the fight itself that will be parleyed into beginning the physical race war in earnest.

[–]Rocksolid1111 4 ポイント5 ポイント  (2子コメント)

I dunno about that. If they or the promoters think the race angle will help sell it more then yea. They really are all about the money.

McGregor's shit talking and hype trips me out. I'm going to soak it all in and enjoy it. It will probably be more entertaining than the actual fight.

This is his first pro boxing match against an all-time great. He's got balls but his odds of success has to be low. But dude was on welfare about 5 years ago, now he has two UFC belts and about to make a hundred million fighting Mayweather. Anything can happen and I don't doubt him anymore.

We are talking about 2 separate agendas here. We have the entertainment one that likes to make money, and the deep state one that likes to make wars. Often, they are aligned for whatever reason, but here I think we could see 2 parallel objectives shadowing each other.

You could be on to something and I'll keep it in mind but I think if it is used by TPTB, it will be along the lines of a 'bread and circus' type spectacle. These are our modern day gladiators.

McGregor has no shot, hes a mediocre boxer(its not UFC) against an undefeated great. Now Golovken vs. Alverez that's gonna be an all time great fight three weeks after this one.

I don't disagree with you regarding the outcome here. The conspiracy is what I am predicting the perception will be, and what it will be used for. I had a friend that tried to cross over from Muay Thai to Boxing, and he had no chance. The wrong instincts are trained, and I don't think this guy has a chance either, much less against an undefeated boxer.

But, be that as it may, this fight will be framed as something else altogether.

many of conor's fights have magick smells about them...just sayin. he's also clearly not the GOAT - there are things he lacks and doesn't seem he understands he lacks. his behaviour is a giveaway.
