Despite his shenanigans and brash persona, UFC star Conor McGregor cares deeply for his fellow compatriots. The former UFC champion always backs the fighters surging from Ireland. The Irish fighter has the desire to uplift those around him, and such was the case when he issued an earnest message to the rising boxing star, Callum Walsh.

Walsh, tipped to emulate ‘Notorious’ in the boxing ring, responded to McGregor’s message and collected an impressive stoppage win. The Cork-native boxer knocked out veteran Carson Jones in the main event of ‘Hollywood Fight Night’. Albeit, not before a clip of him getting almost tearing up after watching McGregor’s message made rounds on the internet.

‘Mystic Mac’ said, “What’s up, Callum Walsh? This is ‘Notorious’ my man. Just sending you a message. Wishing you good luck this evening. I have no doubt in your skills, ability. I have been watching you close. Dana vouches for you”

“And you are in great hands, my man. You got good opponent here tonight. Good opponent to showcase your skills. I’m excited to see you do the thing. Good luck, my man. Let’s go Ireland!,” he added later.
