After Near-Death Experience, Conor McGregor Donates €1 Million to His Old Boxing Gym in Crumlin

UFC star Conor McGregor, who is currently fulfilling his duties outside the steel cage, flaunts his wealth extravagantly. However, his latest gesture might come as a delight to his loyal followers. Renowned MMA fighter, who recently experienced a near-death experience, of late made a humble gesture to the Crumlin Boxing Club. The outspoken Irishman, contrary to his brash nature, quietly donated $1 million to the institution he started his journey from.

The former UFC champion takes pride in his roots and often supports his community’s growth. His latest gesture stems from his pride in his cultural ethos and the reciprocity of the institution’s contribution to his career.

The donation envisions an improved infrastructure of the club and helps the future crop of fighters hailing from the town. Markedly, the amount will result in the extension of the club to two floors higher. In addition, the action aims to make the club the best boxing club on the planet.

Notably, the boxing club shares a special connection with ‘Mystic Mac’. The 34-year-old fighter, who was then a kid of 12, joined the club to regain his confidence and fend off his bullies. From there on, the UFC cash cow started his amateur career and eventually became one of the most charismatic fighters to grace the Octagon.

The anticipated return of Conor McGregor

Conor McGregor last fought in UFC against Dustin ‘Diamond’ Poirer at UFC 264. However, the trip to the Octagon ended horribly for the Irish fighter, as he sustained a career-threatening leg injury during the fight. Adding to his woes, SBG Ireland also lost the fight via TKO.
