MMA fans expressed their reactions to Conor McGregor's X post on newly-elected Irish Prime Minister's contradicting stance. Ireland's parliament nominated Micheal Martin as the new Prime Minister of the country. Martin will now serve as the Taoiseach of the country for a second time.
McGregor and Martin share different views with regard to issues like taxation, housing and immigration policies.
The Irishman was last seen in the octagon in 2021 suffering a broken tibia in his fight against Dustin Poirier. He was scheduled to fight Michael Chandler at UFC 303 in July 2024 but had to pull out due to a broken toe.
Reacting to a video showcasing Martin's political stance, McGregor replied:

Conor McGregor discloses lack of interest from UFC in exhibition boxing fight against Logan Paul
Conor McGregor had recently revealed he was in talks with the Ambani family to fight Logan Paul in India. The former UFC two-division champion has two fights left on his current UFC contract and hasn't stepped foot inside the octagon for more than three years.
McGregor recently revealed in an interview with The Schmo that the UFC had no interest in his cross-promotion fight with Paul. He said:
"One of these days, you'll just hear my music come onto the stage at Bare [Knuckle Fighting Championship]. I'll come out, fists wrapped with no gloves, and fight out of nowhere—no promo, no nothing—just fighting a random fight. That could be where my future holds."
