Well, you don’t see that every day!
Here’s Conor Mcgregor doing what Conor McGregor tends to do a lot lately. Namely, lashing out for no good reason. In this newly released footage from an incident in early April, the MMA fighter didn’t take kindly when an old fellow in an Irish bar refused a glass of his ‘Proper Twelve’ whisky. He clearly thinks very highly of his product, and appears to be spend more time promoting it than his fighting career. On this occasion, the snub resulted in a very juvenile lashing out to the pensioner in the Marble Arch pub in Dublin. A real class act (not)!
In these hostile times, what can be a greater gesture of solidarity with your fellow man (or woman) than taking each other by the hand and marching forward through life? Brits Jess Learmonth and Georgia Taylor-Brown certainly hold to this philosophy and while taking part in the World Triathlon Olympic qualification event in Tokyo the race leaders decided to finish hand in hand.
Unfortunately for them however, doing so they contravened International Triathlon Union (ITU) competition rule 2.11.f, which states “athletes who finish in a contrived tie situation, where no effort to separate their finish times has been made, will be disqualified”.
Consequently both runners were disqualified, awarding the win instead to Bermuda’s Flora Duffy. So much for giving peace a chance!
