The Irish Mohammad Ali

Got GOAT said:
McIlroy is an inferior athlete, by far. They just tested some key areas of McGregor's athleticism at a major university in the States and McIlroy was the previous record holder in rotational velocity before Conor broke that shit. His hips are more explosive than McIlroy's are. Deal with that. :D

I don't like McIlroy but it's just absurd to compare him to a nobody like McGregor. In case you are unaware, McIlroy has actuallynotable accomplishments in his sport, is world famous and makes more money in a year than Dana White, never mind McGregor.

Germans are not a race. There are all kinds of people, from different races, that are German. Germany is a country. Get your shit straight before you start calling people racist, otherwise you just come off uneducated. So sick of every douche out there screaming RACISM where there isn't any and because they're too stupid to realize the difference between ethnicity and nationality.

It's as bad as racism. Hardly surprising Conor would stoop to such a level, though.

Muhammad Ali is Irish

He is a descendant of pre-Civil War era American slaves in the American South, and is predominantly of African-American descent, with Irish, English, and Italian ancestry.[25][26][27]

McGregor aint shit
 
It could be true depending on what they meant, if by Irish Muhammad Ali they mean the greatest among Irish MMA fighters then it's true(at least for now); however, if they the greatest all of time period and happens to be Irish then not even close
 
It was rough hearing that. What are they gonna say if he loses? Probably something like "everybody loses sometime"
 
The best part was afterwards as the football commentators are trying to hype him up without knowing anything about him or MMA.
"I watched his last, um, other few fights, and he was just, um.. in those he's just, kind of something else... umm... the Irish Muhammad Ali! On Fox."
 
WHo gives a shit? Nobody thinks hes Ali, its promotion. Just like that high school kid is the next Jordan.

If people tune in to see McGregor thats what its all about.

Well if you want to speak in terms of education, race is a false classification that doesn't even exist. So how about you shut the fuck up with your high and mighty ignorance while people speak in the common vernacular.

Conor was referencing the 1935 political party who called for a Germany strictly for German people. Genetic science is new. The linguistic terms Germanic and Celtic have historically been used to identify two groups of people who, we now know, have no genetic ties.

In the context of Conor McGregor's loose speech, he reduced an opponent from a particular nation back to a "snapshot" of that nation's history and falsely linked said fighter to the historic germanic people who were/are genetically different from himself.

How much more "racist" can you get?

Amazing how fight fans are opposed to hyping a fight.

Do you all think Tyson eats children?
