If this post were made a couple of years ago, fans would be backing the Irishman’s trash talk. But now, after years of teasing comebacks, none of which have ever come true, McGregor seems to have run out of goodwill. Besides, at the moment, it seems as though he has gone back to his first love. The Irishman seems to be loving life as a soccer player. McGregor’s championship victory The Crumlin striker is fulfilling his childhood dreams of playing soccer, at least semi-professionally. The former UFC champ always dreamt of being a professional soccer player, and now, with his team, Black Forge F.C., he has won the local championship. Black Forge F.C. is a local team that he sponsors and endorses thanks to his pub, the Black Forge Inn. The team played in the United Churches Football League, and after a gruelling campaign consisting of 17 matches, they won the league before the season even ended. McGregor, who wears the Number 10 jersey, the most valuable number in soccer, plays as a striker for the team. After their win, he posted a montage of the game, captioning it, “Elated and exhausted! Won a real tough league. Winning the league is always the major statement for a team to make! Very impressed and proud! Onwards and upwards we go!”
