Have you ever wondered how Ireland would change if the most famous Irish MMA fighter became the leader of Ireland? Well, let’s give you an idea.
As we all know, the role of president should be taken seriously since there are some critical tasks to undertake and big boots to fill. We asked ourselves: what would happen if a certain MMA star ran for the presidency of Ireland?
Conor McGregor, a man who needs no introduction, has taken the world by storm in more ways than one and left the nation proud with his notorious charisma, trash talk, sporting achievements, and classy style.
So, who would be a better candidate than the MMA fighter to take on the most crucial role in our country?
Let’s discuss how Ireland would change if Conor McGregor was president.
5. Presidential Fight Club – entertaining the public
One of the main ways Ireland would change if Conor McGregor was president is that disputes between national leaders would be settled through impromptu MMA matches.
In a kind of MMA diplomacy, McGregor would oversee world leaders as they go head-to-head in the ring to solve political issues and, let’s face it, give the citizens some entertainment.
This new way of solving important world issues may be a thing of the future thanks to Conor, and could be even bigger and better than national favourites like Gogglebox or Big Brother. We can imagine that if McGregor was president, the TV would never be switched off in any household again.
4. Trash Talk Tuesday – a new way to settle disputes
If there is one thing that the Irish MMA fighter is known for, it’s his witty trash talk, which certainly gets the crowd going and leaves a sour expression on his opponent’s face.
If McGregor were Irish president, Trash Talk Tuesday would be a weekly event where he engages in witty banter with world leaders and politicians to discuss essential topics entertainingly.
Like the Presidential Fight Club, citizens worldwide can tune in to see the action live; chances are these will be the most watched shows on TV.
3. Conor Currency – say hello to ‘Notorious Notes’
One of the most important ways Ireland would change if Conor McGregor was president is that we would say goodbye to the euro and hello to the new Conor Currency.
What would be dubbed the ‘Notorious Notes’ would be the new currency of Ireland featuring various images, including Conor McGregor’s face in various victorious poses, complete with holographic images of the former fighter throwing left hooks.
This would certainly go down as one of the most unique and exciting new currencies the world has ever seen, putting Ireland on the map as a quirky country with a quirky president.
2. St. Conor’s Day – a bigger and better celebration
Yes, there is no doubt that if Conor McGregor took on the role of Irish president, a new national day would be announced – St. Conor’s Day!
While St. Patrick’s Day would still be alive and well, St. Conor’s Day would promise to be bigger and better than Ireland’s national day and would be filled with parades and free Proper 12 whiskey for all.
In addition, all citizens would be encouraged to recite memorable Conor McGregor quotes or trash-talk impressions while doing their best impersonations of the MMA fighter.
On this day, images of Conor McGregor would be placed across the country, and each city and town would be encouraged to organise a Conor-themed parade, where the theme would be ‘the blingier, the better’.
1. National Dress Code – the most fashionable nation
One of the most hilarious ways Ireland would change if Conor McGregor was president is that a new National Dress Code would be enacted.
Conor McGregor is notorious for his flashy suits, brand-name accessories and fashion-forward mindset, so there is no doubt that he would encourage the nation to follow in his footsteps.
The National Dress Code would involve citizens being prompted to wear three-piece suits and designer sunglasses at all times, branding us the most fashionable nation worldwide – or at least giving Italy a run for its money.
On top of this, clothes like pyjamas, tracksuits, and ripped jeans would be declared faux pas and incur a fine by citizens caught wearing them in public.
So, as you can see, Ireland would certainly change a lot if Conor McGregor was president, and there are many more where this came from.
