Conor McGregor wants to fight as the President of Ireland.
In recent months, former UFC Lightweight and Featherweight champion Conor McGregor has spoke about possibly running for president in Ireland, even going so far to admit that his MMA career may be over if he pursues the idea.
While speaking at the BKFC 70 post show press conference, McGregor talked about the idea of fighting while being the president of Ireland.
"And now entering the Octagon, the notorious President of Ireland, Conor McGregor! Well I'm fucking 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 having a fight, imagine that! Well you know for sure, hell yes, hell yes!"
McGregor last competed in MMA back in 2021, when he suffered a broken leg in his trilogy bout with Dustin Poirer.
McGregor was recently invited to The White House for St Patrick's Day earlier this month. You can read more about that here.
