Irish Fan Bashes Jose Aldo At UFC Dublin Press Conference

The Conor McGregor and Jose Aldo Dublin press conference was full of surprises. Perhaps the best part was when Notorious stole the belt from the reigning UFC champion. But it also had some interesting moments, like when a clearly intoxicated Irish fan stole the microphone and trash talked Jose Aldo.

“I have a question for Aldo,” the drunk fan said.  “Aldo, have you ever heard the word spanked? Your going to get spanked man. He’s going to lay you on his lap and spank you like you’ve never seen before.”

Both Dana White and McGregor seemed to enjoy the comments, while Aldo just remained stone faced.

Right after, a kid — with the McGregor haircut — had more choice words for the UFC champion: “Aldo, you better get ready spit shining that belt and give it to Conor.”

It is no secret that McGregor has a rabid fanbase in Ireland. Very little is known about UFC’s ticket sales, but allegedly ten percent of UFC 178’s ticket sales — where McGregor destroyed Dustin Poirier — came from Ireland, which is an incredible number.

The two fighters will meet on July 11 at UFC 189.
