All for what? To try and promote a fight? To earn himself millions of dollars? Insane. Not to mention that, given his own proximity to a major and violent geopolitical division, he should fucking know better. Imagine if the fight was in, say, Belfast, and Nurmagomedov went off on some riff about Proddies and Fenians?

Keith Houchen Posted October 29, 2019 Share Posted October 29, 2019 It's akin to wearing a poppy and then saying "Fuck you and the Queen". Â Imagine if someone did that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he's coming away with absolute shite like that, causing that kind of grief with people over him feeling bad about getting his arse kicked then he needs to take a long, hard look at himself.

Paid Members Scott Malbranque Posted November 1, 2019 Paid Members Share Posted November 1, 2019 McG fined a grand for hitting the oullad a clatter. That'll learn him. He surely won't do that again... https://www.rte.ie/news/courts/2019/1101/1087926-conor-mcgregor-court/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Posted November 1, 2019 Share Posted November 1, 2019 €1,000 fine from a legal standpoint sounds about right. He's just lucky that the old fellow seems like he's not the type to make a fuss, or to sue him for a fuckload of money. That would be an open & shut case if ever there was one.

Paid Members Carbomb Posted November 1, 2019 Paid Members Share Posted November 1, 2019 There are times when I wonder whether or not fines should be a percentage proportion of your income above a certain bracket, like taxes, instead of a fixed amount, because of shit like this.

Absolutely. Someone once said that a crime being punishable by a fine basically amounts to "legal if you're rich". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
