“True Irish hero” - Fans applaud Conor McGregor for urging Irish people to support Ashling Murphy Memorial Fund

Conor McGregor has recently called upon his Irish supporters to contribute to the Ashling Murphy Memorial Fund.

In January 2022, Ashling Murphy, an Irish primary school teacher, was tragically murdered by Jozef Puska from Mucklagh, Tullamore. This incident raised widespread awareness and global concern about violence against women. A year after the tragedy, the perpetrator was apprehended and subsequently sentenced last November, concluding an extensive investigation.

The former UFC two-division champion, well known for raising this issue, recently took to X and requested his followers to contribute to the Ashling Murphy Memorial Fund. 'The Notorious' confirmed his personal commitment to the cause by pledging a donation of €50,000.

In a recent video on his YouTube channel, Chandler shared his preview of the bout:

"It’s going to be a big card, it’s going to be fun, and I finish Conor within the first two rounds and after that probably end his career. There’s just too much more than what people think about on the surface level. I want battlegrounds of epic proportions, I want to stand in the cage with that man, I want to break that man’s will, I want to break his jaw."
