Well worth spending ten minutes of your day reading this. Kimmage is one of Irelands leading sportswriters but well known for asking frank and tough questions.

Paul is an ex cyclist who battled Lance Armstrong in the media for many years.

Two years ago, on the morning of my first visit to the Straight Blast Gym (SBG) on the Naas Road, I scribbled a last-minute warning in my notes. "The danger of interviewing John Kavanagh is that it becomes all about Conor McGregor." His book, Win or Learn had just been published and it was obvious, reading it, that Kavanagh was a seriously interesting man and I resolved not to make it about his fighter.

But how can we know the dancer from the dance?


Covers

+ MMA in Ireland, regulation issues, recognition
+ Ireland's success in international competition
+ The Mayweather fight
+ The Bellator cage invasion
+ McGregor's confidence and mental state
+ Busgate and McGregor's behaviour in general
+ Mcgregor's legacy and if he should quit fighting

I did put a quote to wet your interest
and I also put a list of the subjects covered in the interview
there is no timestamp because its a written interview
wtf more do you want, click the link, read it, if you dont want to, dont

Personally I think thats enough. If you want to spend ten minutes reading a great interview then you will do (which i think you should, it shows a respect for the writer to read their articles).

If you don't want to, then don't.

Personally, If i have written a piece, I would rather people read the actual piece than read someone else's repackaged highlights of it.
