Conor McGregor has hinted that he may be about to run for president, and has already attacked his potential political opponents. 

He noted the ages of potential candidates Gerry Adams (78), Bertie Ahern (75) and Enda Kenny (74).

He said each of these possible candidates have "unbreakable ties to their individual parties politics".

He accused the mainstream parties of governing themselves rather than governing the people. 

He offered himself as an alternative candidate who is: "Young, active, passionate, fresh skin in the game. I listen. I support. I adapt. I have no affiliation/bias/favoritism toward any party". 

He said political parties would be held to account regarding the current sway of public feeling.

"I’d even put it all to vote. There’d be votes every week to make sure. I can fund. It would not be me in power as President, people of Ireland. It would be me and you," the MMA fighter said.
