Conor McGregor Trump Jr. deal: Another Fighter Who Can’t Just Fight Anymore

The Conor McGregor Trump Jr deal represents another fighter who can’t just fight anymore. Trump Jr.’s $23M investment as strategic advisor doesn’t make McGregor a better businessman—it makes him a political mouthpiece. McGregor already had generational wealth from Proper Twelve and PPV success. This isn’t about finding money; it’s about a fighter forgetting his lane. Cage fighting expertise doesn’t qualify you for political strategy. John Cena gets this right: stay apolitical, focus on your expertise. MMA was special because fans from all politics could watch together. This deal threatens that unity. When fighters become political assets, we lose what made combat sports compelling.
