Actor Liam Neeson admitted in a Men’s Health interview this week that he's not a big fan of professional fighting, especially Conor McGregor...
quote:

“UFC, I can’t stand,” he told the outlet. “That, to me, is like a bar fight. I know the practitioners are like, ‘No, you’re wrong — the months of training we do…’ Why don’t you just grab a beer bottle and hit the other guy over the head? That’s the next stage of the UFC.”

Neeson reiterated his “hate” for the sport before focusing on one fighter.

“That little leprechaun Conor McGregor, he gives Ireland a bad name,” he told Men’s Health. “I know he’s fit, and I admire him for that. But I can’t take it.”

Neeson criticizes Connor for the brutality he’s made millions off of. A little bit hypocritical imo.

They’re both glorifying it. Neeson promotes gun control and yet he uses one in a lot of his films.

Liam gets paid a lot of money to fake violent acts on a money screen. Conner gets paid to actually do those violent acts in the octagon. And Liam has a problem with Connor. Hollywood is so hypocritical.

I’m a little surprised how many of you Kip Dynamite-looking bastards think UFC is cool.

Im all about talking shite but if the person you're talking shite about can thoroughly whip your arse, you might want to shut the frick up and stay out of the news talking smack about them

Solid take, and I personally agree. Not a big fan of watching MMA. A good boxing match is way more entertaining. Unfortunately, Tyson had to many quick knockouts
and it deflated the popularity of the sport.

This is like saying Michael Jordan ruined basketball or Wayne Gretzky ruined hockey.
