It seemed as if it was just a bit of summertime family sailing for Irish MMA Superstar Conor McGregor, but the latest business move of "The Notorious" shows that this was not a naval voyage for mere leisure.
Conor
McGregor, (31) a UFC fighter, and former two-division Champion in the
company, is no stranger to making strong business ventures and stepping
into unprecedented territory for a regular professional athlete.
That’s
because McGregor is no regular professional athlete. In 2014, at UFC
Fight Night Dublin, Conor reminded everybody of a quote of his. “We’re
not just here to take part. We’re here to take over.” He wasn’t
exaggerating. It seems like QUITE the coincidence, that in the midst of
global shutdown and the pending cancellation of UFC 249’s main event
Khabib vs. Ferguson, a fight which Conor predicted wouldn’t happen yet
again, he makes what seems to be the biggest purchase of his life and
financial career.
The
footage of the McGregor family sailing trip seemed very well produced,
confusingly so. Why put such production value into an afternoon on the
waves with the family? Because this was no ordinary day at sea, this was
a real estate prospecting mission of epic proportions. Quite a special
day indeed.
“The
Isle of Man” is a small island located in the Irish Sea, mostly
renowned for Viking and Celtic heritage. Formerly a self-governing
British Crown dependency, the Isle of Man, (revested into the British
Crown in 1765), is for the first time in Modern History under control of
a hand outside of the British reach. That, is the hand of the McGregor
estate. It is reported that he finalized the purchase on March 30th,
2020. This Island is the home to an annual cross country motorcycle race
“The Isle of Man TT”, and now soon to be the home of a state of the art
athletics arena... fit for a pay-per-view.
McGregor
(Mystic Mac), has been known to go to great lengths to “make his dreams
into a reality.”. Could it be possible, that Conor McGregor is saving
the day for The UFC and Dana White amidst the brink of disaster with
Khabib Nurmagomedov not being able to fly out of Russia for the 249 main
event by giving the company a place to put on the event? Is Conor McGregor a superhero?
