One of the worst nights of my career is still somehow going to rank as one of the best nights of my career, because of the Irish fans.
I realise how very lucky I am to have you. ๐
I will adjust, and we will win the trilogy ๐ฎ๐ช
Full credit has to go out to both guys for this. But also to their respective coaches Paul Rimmer (Staines) and Peter Queally (McCarthy). Both guys had other fights that fell through and then this got done in 24 hours. Sometimes big fights just come together

@DennyRants They had this in Russia when I was fighting there. Great rule. Itโs one of the most egregious fouls you can make, you have massively broken the rules before you have even stepped foot in the ring
Great to speak with Conor McCarthy (@conormccmma) over on @SevereMMA
Training under @peterqueally, engineering graduate Conor is one of the top prospects in Irish MMA and fights at @CageWarriors Dublin this Saturday.

One side wants to debate. The other side will try shut you up with hate speech laws, arrest you, or if all else fails, shoot you. If you keep screeching about your political opponents being "literally Hitler" dont act surprised when some nut believes you.
I'm the journalist Ruth is talking about
We decry when things like this happen in the US. You can agree or disagree with people, but we have a free press in this country and I'll defend any Press Council members' right to ask politicians questions
