‘Influencer' moans after being kicked out of Conor McGregor's The Black Forge Inn
Gavin Lowbridge had been at the Crumlin pub last Tuesday evening, where former Fox news presenter Tucker Carlson appeared after interviewing McGregor An Irish far-right media influencer used his digital platform this week to moan after being kicked out of Conor McGregor's The Black Forge Inn. Gavin Lowbridge had been at the Crumlin pub last Tuesday evening, where former Fox news presenter Tucker Carlson appeared after interviewing McGregor. In the interview McGregor, who is appealing the decision against him in a civil rape case, talks of a potential run for the Presidency. The occasion saw other Irish agitators and politicians with controversial views on immigration, appear at the venue. Earlier in the night, Lowbridge posed for a photo with Kildare County Councillor Tom McDonnell, who has been convicted of violent offences, and repeated bizarre conspiracy theories. McDonnell also posted a video of him presenting McGregor with a copy of the Irish Constitution and a bottle of holy water. Lowbridge also posed for selfies enjoying a McGregor cigar and stout and praised the staff at the pub. Later in the evening, things went downhill for Lowbridge, who runs several digital platforms that feature Irish people with far-right views and as well as British neo-Nazis. In a livestream, since deleted, Lowbridge complained to his followers over his ordeal after being told to leave by a member of the security staff. 'Boys he just threw me out, he pulled me out of the pub for absolutely nothing. 'I've been minding my business. I had the best f***ing night of my life and he's throwing me out.. Like, what the f**k? I didn't fight with anybody I haven't had a bad word with anybody and he just threw me out. 'Obviously I'm not going to go anywhere because my friends are inside, so I can't leave until my friends come with me, that's fine. 'I don't know why they picked on me because I've been here all evening. I haven't had any problems and the bouncer comes in and says you have to leave now. 'Well if I have to leave now we have to ask why I have to leave and we are going to have to get a public f**king opinion abut why I have to leave because I didn't do anything f**king wrong.' 'I'm one of Conor McGregor's biggest supporters in the country like. So we are not f**king around.' 'I have done nothing wrong I have 300,000 followers. Conor follows me on this. Tomorrow we are going to figure it out. Tomorrow we are going to figure out what your problem is.' 'I just don't like to be disrespected because I drank a lot of drink in here tonight, I bought a lot of pints here tonight. 'I have Conor McGregor's f**king eh, cigar in my hand and his f**king bouncer disrespected me. I don't even like stout, I'm drinking his f**king stout.'

Conor McGregor parties with Nelk Boys amid UFC retirement speculation
Conor McGregor was seen enjoying a lively Saint Patrick's Day celebration with the Nelk Boys at his pub, The Black Forge Inn, in a new video that has further fueled speculation about his future in the UFC. Conor McGregor, once known for his fierce dedication to fighting, was seen indulging in a spirited Saint Patrick's Day celebration at his iconic pub, The Black Forge Inn, with YouTube stars the Nelk Boys. The footage, shared on YouTube, features McGregor drinking, singing, and partying with the group—a stark contrast to the days when he was known for his intense training regime. The Nelk Boys, who had previously met McGregor at Donald Trump's inauguration, were in Ireland as part of a larger trip to celebrate Saint Patrick's Day. They visited McGregor's pub after a $10,000 giveaway to a Belfast resident, with the lucky winner meeting them in Dublin for the handover. What followed was a celebration at McGregor's venue, where the former UFC superstar mingled with guests, poured drinks, and belted out a rendition of Robbie Williams' 'Angels.' While McGregor's recent involvement with BKFC, where he acts as a part-owner, shows that he's still connected to the fight world, his time in the cage seems behind him.

His status as a global icon and business mogul means he no longer needs to fight for money, and fans will have to wait and see whether 'The Notorious' ever returns to the octagon.
