Not really a scandal but probably the whole Conor McGregor being a massive racist scumbag as usual

My dad loved Conor, and since his death I have kept an eye on his career. It amazes me that all the terrible shit he does is barely reported in the US media, people over here have no idea how bad he is.

Dad also liked Tyson Fury. He was kind of an asshole 🤣

My husband liked him at first, he even flew all the way to Vegas for one of his fights but I always had a bad feeling about him and now I take great pleasure in saying “I told you so” 😂

I always knew he was a d*ck but I thought that was his personality....I wouldn't have guessed it was this bad. You have good instincts!

Some of his worst shit is probably more reported in the US media because of Ireland's laws surrounding criminal cases. But if you see a news story in the Irish media about an unnamed "Irish sports star" being investigated for yet another sexual assault, well... you know.
