‘Just 5 More Minutes Ma’- Conor McGregor Vows to Abstain From Alcohol While Penning Down an Emotional Message

Conor McGregor is the face of MMA. The Irishman is clearly the biggest name in combat sports and continues to dominate outside of it as well. Recently, he announced the achievements of his business ventures, but, with it, also came a huge update on his octagon return.

Fans got to see a rather unprecedented side of ‘The Notorious’ Conor McGregor as he penned a heartfelt message for them on Instagram. The Irishman stated that he’ll be abstaining from alcohol to focus on his training for an octagon return this year.

The former UFC champ-champ wrote, “Sitting in actual awe at present. Can’t quite describe it. Last week, Saturday, the first day Ireland became free from restriction, and also coincidentally the anniversary of the late Arthur Guinness, @forgedirishstout outsold Guinness on premise for the first time. And everyday since! @forgedirishstout is now the clear leader in Stout sales for us! All of us in this industry know, for a Stout to do this is just unprecedented! Incredible!” 

“The fact it happened for the first time on that day in particular, I feel it a sign that I am on the right path here with all of this! Onwards and upwards we go! For my fighting fans, I want to say I know I am enjoying myself with my liquid, but very soon I will be immersing my self in full training again with complete abstention from my wonderful creations of Spirit and Ale. Just 5 more minutes Ma”
