THE IRISH HAVE well and truly descended on Las Vegas ahead of Conor McGregor’s bout against Jose Aldo tonight.
Yesterday, a few of them stopped in at a Q&A with Holly Holm, the fighter who knocked out Ronda Rousey last month.
One Irish fan took the opportunity to serenade Holm with a rendition of Can’t Take My Eyes Off You, complete with the DUH-DUH DUH-DUH DUH DUH DUH DUH DUH bit.
Look at her. She’s mortified. In her eyes is a silent cry for help.
You really can’t take us anywhere.

Why would you climb Everest 6 times?
@Pat Mustard: to ride Mrs O’Reilly!
@Pat Mustard:
If your passion was mountaineering, then why wouldn’t you?
@Pat Mustard: “because it’s there”
RIP
Just watched the movie ‘Everest’ last night – that’s a coincidence.
@Tweeter: No, it isn’t.
@Tweeter: Watched it a few years ago meself.
@Fearghal: that’s another coincidence right there.
Sherpas get pittance to get the western climbers to the summit and all the while risking their lives to do it out of financial necessity
Without the guides the mountain would be littered with bodies
Rather a selfish act to try and climb the mountain especially if one has family given the huge risks
have your say
