Conor McGregor Has A Boards.ie Account And This Post From 2011 Is Pure McGregor Gold

We originally came across this back in June ahead of UFC 189 but with his ascent to becoming a UFC champion now complete, it's only right that we revisit where he came from. It's not a great lesson to be teaching but sometimes keyboard warriors hiding behind a username really do have something to say in real life.

Conor McGregor is one of the biggest names in all of mixed martial arts, and one of the main faces of the UFC, and while most casual fans of the sport would not have known who he was as recently as 18 months ago, back in 2011 the man himself knew he was destined for the top.

Credit is also due for a number Boards.ie users who also shared the vision, and some who were even accused of jumping on the bandwagon... In 2011.

We stumbled upon an account that we were told belonged to Conor McGregor, and with 8 posts on the website, all in the MMA sub-forum and all responding to call-outs, it appears to be legitimate. That means that this post must go down as one of the best in the history of Boards:

The king is here

Dont worry folks i reply to any call out even if it is against a little white guy who thinks he is a big black guy,,,,

Conor Dillon that broken foot was the best thing that ever happened to you that night and you know it
You left that ring lookin like your hero snoop dogg, black and blue

Walkin around with a death row records chain around your neck you bum your a five foot nothing pastey white kerry bum you remind me of that donkey Chris ''Menace to absolutly f@@king nothing'' Stringer with his bandana on you guys should fight,, winner takes the losers 2pac posters

Im after the real gold a belt that no irish man has ever won and dont say paul mcveigh has won it he is as scottish as the loch ness monster

On another note vote for me for fighter of the year how can you not the busiest fighter this year 4 second ko's ,16 second ko's, broken orbital bones, broken jaws, broken noses, fighters retired,, 100 per cent knockout
ratio what other guy in the country is doing this

EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THEM ARE RUNNING SCARED
EVERY SINGLE ONE!!!!

"Winner gets the loser's 2pac posters"... Brilliant.

While back then he was only claiming a Cage Warriors title would be his, he was absolutely correct, and so were a few Boards users, like this guy:

But what is really interesting is how the debate over McGregor's attitude was raging even back then:

Fantastic stuff, it's just a shame he's not still active on the forum.
