Conor McGregor’s surprising response to the Tate brothers

Dubbed the ‘King of Toxic Masculinity’ Andrew Tate gained significance and relevance back in the start of 2016 after a reality show controversy. Thereafter, his fame reached its zenith when he started making videos about teaching boys how to act like men. Tate’s theory of masculinity revolved around the idea of stoicism. It garnered him a lot of support including controversies. In a period of 1 year, Andrew Tate amassed 9 million followers on X and was the third most searched personality on Google. Nonetheless, with fame comes great misfortune as well.

The T͏at͏e brothers were jaile͏d fo͏r ͏criminal misconduct but were͏ r͏e͏le͏͏ase͏d sho͏rtly thereafter. Regarding their ͏influence in MMA, ͏the community ͏is divided.͏ M͏any figh͏t͏ers ͏and ͏fans supp͏ort them, ͏͏believing th͏e͏y are right͏.͏ How͏ev͏er, notable figures ͏in MMA͏, such as Sean Strickland, openl͏y criticize the Ta͏t͏e brothers for their hyp͏ocrisy. Regardless, unlike Strickland, Conor McGregor seems to have no problem with the Tate brothers.

While in conversation with Duelbits, McGregor was asked about his opinion on Andrew Tate to which the former dual-weight champion said, ” Thoughts on Andrew Tate? I like Andrew Tate, you know, from what I see and hear, and the brothers too. I don’t know much about the criminal aspects surrounding them—you don’t get much information. From what I have seen and heard, they are okay in my books. Top G.”

McGregor further emphasized that he refrains himself from making any comments without having any proper evidence. Nonetheless, looking back, ‘Mystic Mac’ never really had any bad blood with the Tate brothers. Tristan Tate even openly supported McGregor for his presidential run.

Tristan Tate wants to see McGregor run the presidency

After venturing into fighting and business, Conor McGregor seems to be willing to run his stake in politics. The former dual weight champion has time and time again hinted that there might be a possibility that he would be getting into politics. Back in 2023, Mcgregor tweeted hard on the policies of the current government and after the Dublin attack ‘Mystic Mac directly attacked the Ireland president for being soft on criminals.

Since then McGregor has been talking about making into politics. His endeavor even got backing from the likes of Tech mogul, Elon Musk. Nonetheless, the tech billionaire was not the only one who came in support of Conor Mcgregor’s presidential run. Tristan Tate recently asked McGregor to follow the path of politics more. After McGregor uploaded a video talking about his catholic views, Tate took to the comment section to say, “Run for political office when you finally retire.”

The Irish fighter may or may not fight the election but one thing’s for sure and that’s the fact that he would have some tremendous backing if he does. Nonetheless, whats your take on this?
