Justin Gaethje doesn’t give a sh*t about Conor McGregor’s political aspirations.
Final month, the Irish megastar made headlines when he declared his candidacy for president in his native Eire. The announcement was met with a slew of responses, lots of them moans and groans from fighters and followers alike.
Gaethje, alternatively, couldn’t presumably care much less.
Throughout a current episode of his Funky and The Champ podcast, Daniel Cormier referred to as Gaethje in the midst of the episode to ask ‘The Spotlight’ about McGregor’s possibilities of turning into the president of Eire.
“Daniel, cease calling me for this dumb sh*t… Horrible query… America child,” Gaethje stated.
As Cormier’s co-host Ben Askren began to talk, we couldn’t make out what Gaethje stated subsequent. Happily, ‘DC’ took a second to clue us in.
“He stated he doesn’t know sh*t about Eire and he doesn’t f*king care,” Cormier relayed.
That makes two of us.

With the win, ‘The Spotlight’ is, within the eyes of many, the following man in line to problem light-weight titleholder Islam Makhachev.
That’s assuming Khabib Nurmagomedov efficiently lobbies towards giving former featherweight champ Ilia Topuria the following shot.
