I would seriously question the sanity of anyone in Ireland who is a McGregor fan. The lad is an absolute scumbag.

He obviously doesn't have the hype train behind him, that helped Mcgregor. And in ireland he didn't come from 'working class' on the dole with a loveable rogue character and major charisma, Garry is more of a Rugby type head who was trying to act like he's from the street and trying to be like McGregor, think that's what put a lot of onlookers off him a little. We are very much a class driven society and it suits us better when people stay in their own lane (you sometimes see it in rugby where players not from public school background it becomes a talking point). In addition in McGregor's case, it wasn't just the Irish who loved or hated him it was the UFC fans globally who were/are tapped in to that. He became a global superstar very quickly. Garry is maybe a bit more of a slowburn and he hasn't really tore through his opponents in the same way either as mcgregor did, most of his fights he was in a bit of jeopardy until the one the other night. But that could be a bit of a springboard. I know my UFC liking mates we are all in the same boat that we want him to do well like and if he starts getting those big fights and gets into the top contender position then I'm sure a lot of the Irish support will row in behind him like they would any good Irish contender in sport. But mcgregor was on a different level and almost Jesus like for some!, Edited by t_rAndy - 15 May 2023 at 8:11am |

It's a strange one with Garry in that he seems to be universally disliked at home. Even in McGregor's heyday, he had as many supporters as he had people hoping he'd lose. It seems to be very one-sided for Garry, for whatever reasons.

I think he may have matured a little bit but did he do the run over to Dana white thing People do after a big win where they make a demand for next fight or fight bonus? He was talking to someone outside the cage. I hate when fighters do that. I also was afraid when he jumped up on the cage he was going to do the mgregror money flick motion with his hands. |

Not likable as you said but no reason to hate him either.

His most impressive performance and a very good finish. Not very likable (just seems to try to hard to be liked) but still he's irish so you want him to go to the top. That will make him ranked now

Hate him all you want but that's a massive win for him knocking out a ranked opponent. If you look at the 8 or 9 lads ranked above him there's a lot of winnable fights. Great to see another Irish talent in the UFC.

Shame, he's an effeminate scumbag. Took the chance to mock Pereira's kid while his da was unconscious.

4th time lucky for Adesanya. Just when it looked like Pereira was closing in for a ko too.

Ian Garry should take things very slow and not fast track his run. If ends up breaking into the top 10 that will be a fine achievement and a proud sporting Day for Ireland. Can't see him ever getting the belt or even top 5.

Minor league stuff compared to some of his antics. He'll get a fine awakening waving his chin around against anyone competent

He was a little with the mcgregor/ vince mcmahon strut. I dont think he will go to the top. Decent enough card overall. 1 or 2 shocks.
