The Indo Daily: Conor McGregor's headline-making 2025: Legal tussles, presidential bid, a God-fuelled pivot and a wedding?
"McGregor hasn't fought inside the Octagon or appeared in any more Hollywood blockbusters during this time, but he's managed to remain in the spotlight, nonetheless. We've had a failed bid for Áras an Uachtaráin, developments in legal challenges both made by and levelled against him, a memorable trip to the White House, and a recent pivot to religious devotion. This week, a lawsuit brought against McGregor in America was dropped,"
"while just two days later, his bid to further appeal the Nikita Hand case was rejected by Ireland's Supreme Court. The headlines continue - McGregor is expected to get married in the coming days. So, how to make sense of Conor McGregor 2025? On this episode of The Indo Daily, host Fionnán Sheahan is joined by Irish Independent legal affairs editor Shane Phelan, and by freelance sports journalist Philip O'Connor, to look back at the year that was for Conor McGregor."
Conor McGregor has not fought inside the Octagon or appeared in Hollywood blockbusters during this period, yet he remained highly visible. He mounted a failed bid for Áras an Uachtaráin and faced legal challenges both initiated by him and brought against him. A lawsuit in the United States was dropped this week, and a bid to further appeal the Nikita Hand case was rejected by Ireland's Supreme Court two days later. He made a memorable trip to the White House, has shown a recent pivot toward religious devotion, and is widely reported to be expected to marry in the coming days.
