Guardia or the police? Guardia or the police. I cannot see many closed doors that are happy with this. Even if I look at what has happened in some of the protests where the Guardia, essentially the Guardia are following orders. They're doing their job. It's a tricky one. And it's a sad one to see. It was very sad and upsetting to see our Guardia turn on their compatriots. And that's what we saw.
And use excessive force. But it's an order coming down and I feel sad seeing it. I feel sad seeing it. And, you know, most recently one of them came out unnamed and said it has stayed with him. They are very, very troubled by it. And it's just a sad sight to see. You know, Ireland, we should be together. And that's what I said. I wonder how many behind closed doors...
are really with this cause that we are fighting. I would assume it's most, the majority.
Well, we are a small island. We are a small, small island. And we are now... I don't even want to highlight. I'm actually at a stage now where I'm cautious of highlighting the benefits of arriving here because it's only going to attract more.
You know, if I look at Trump's situation, it has decreased the amount of people who are attempting to immigrate to the United States of America because of what's going on. This is what I wish would have happened. You know, if you turn off the tap, they go or they stop coming. If you show a basket full of golden eggs, you know, they just arrive for it, you know, and that's kind of what it is.
It's a free-for-all with our public wealth, with our money. A free-for-all. And it's being stolen. And it has to stop. It's not... How long? I couldn't give you the exact figures, you know. Statistics... It doesn't look bright. It could happen a year, not long. Anyway, not long.
Having a love for one's country. That's it, I have a love for my country. I fought to represent my nation's flag on the grandest stage of fighting. That was my aspiration, to represent my nation, to open the doors of the fighting world and the martial arts world to the Irish public, and to support my teammates.
We were all, we had a kindred spirit rising up, chasing our dreams, and a very tight-knit tight-knit crew, and we rose up. And I got in there. I was successful. I opened it up. Now the martial arts lifestyle is a real way of living for many people in Ireland, and I take great happiness in seeing that. And I suppose it's just continued off of that. You know, it's a different fight now.
You know, it's a different fight, but it's still a fight to represent my country to the best of my ability.
Yeah.
Well, that's what I will say here about, you know, I do not wish to be doom and gloom. My outlook on life has always been to have a positive outlook, you know, borderline delusional. I could walk into a burning house and see here birds chirping as an example. And that assisted me in being able to
block out certain things that may have impacted me and hampered me and slowed me down from getting to where I was going. So I wish to continue with that and have a positive outlook and say it's not all doom and gloom. Like I said, there are positive changes happening incrementally, slowly, but surely. Slowly but surely.
And as I said, there's a great group of people and it's the majority of Irish people that are at the helm of it. I'm a voice and a support and... As I said, I'm here to serve my country, serve my country to the best of my ability and protect my country. That is all I wish. I wish for the people to have the power and myself to have a vote amongst the people. That is my aim.
What do I think of him? I think he's doing very, very well. I think, you know, I was present for his 2016 inauguration, although not officially. I was there on fighting business. I was fighting in Madison Square Garden for my second UFC world title. And MMA and UFC had just become legalized in New York at the time. And I remember Trump had been just voted in and he won the election.
And it was uproar on the streets and anger and fear, I suppose, was going on. And at that time, I was just an observer. You know, politics wasn't really on my mind at that time. Ireland was not really going through what it was going through at that stage in 2016. Although it was rising, it was unbeknownst to me and many in the country. Were you not political, really?
Not really political, no, at that stage. You know, I was focused on my craft, and it wasn't at the forefront. It all kind of took a turn post-COVID. It all took a real turn post-COVID. And you could kind of see what was going on and what had gone on post the crash, you know, and who our government was serving. You could kind of see that come to fruition then. throughout the COVID era.
And then I just became more invested in and then that was it. But I was there for Trump's inauguration when he was sworn in for the first time. Fear, worry, panic. And then I was there the second time in 2024, most recent, and it was elation and excitement. And I thought it was good to see. They asked me, what do I think he'll be as a president? I said, well,
when it was 2016 in the media runs I was doing. And I said, let's see, you know, give the man a chance. He's not from a political background. He's from a different background. It's interesting. Let us see. And I thought he'd done well. You know, towards the end of the term, you know, there may have been times to, you know, as a leader of a country, you almost need to... you know, cool the flames.
You know, maybe there were some things that might have fanned the flames towards the end of his term that I thought. But this time around, I feel that he's off to a good start and I wish him well. I wish the country, the United States of America well. I consider them my dear siblings. We consider America our sibling. And I think it's going well.
And we're getting a good fair bit of energy from it, from Ireland, even amidst the tariff situation. that is going on. Ireland's people have not seen the money got to do with this whatsoever. In fact, we have been robbed of our own money and yet we are supposed to be this wealthy country, yet the people of Ireland are struggling to heat their homes.
