Who is Conor McGregor, the controversial fighter who announced bid for Ireland’s presidency?

Firstpost  

Conor McGregor, the 36-year-old Ultimate Fighting Championship star, has announced he will run for the Irish presidency later this year. Though UFC president Dana White called McGregor’s behaviour disgusting, the UFC did not punish their massive star. Reuters Facchinetti told CNN he was pursuing charges against McGregor “because the world needs to know the fact that he is dangerous.” As per The Sun, in 2022, a 40-year-old woman accused McGregor of attacking her on his luxury yacht in Ibiza during his 34th birthday celebrations. I think it’s almost inconceivable that four county councils would endorse him.” McGregor isn’t popular with the public either.
