Irish fighter Conor McGregor has spent only 69 seconds inside the fighting cage over the past five years. This indicates that his sporting career has been less active lately. However, his recognition has not faded. McGregor remains widely known, although his reputation continues to deteriorate. His lifestyle and behaviour attract negative attention: wild parties, questionable conduct and serious accusations.
These controversies have not diminished his ambitions. In 2025, the Irish athlete came up with what may be the most absurd idea of his colourful life – a desire to run for the office of President of Ireland. The move has surprised many, as the presidency is usually associated with serious political experience and an impeccable reputation, whereas McGregor's public image has become highly controversial in recent years.
The question remains open – what will come of this plan. Regardless of whether it is a genuine candidacy or a provocation, the step has already drawn broad public attention.
