Conor McGregor has broken his social media silence following his fight with Mayweather... it's The Dredge

All the best of the day’s celebrity filth.

EVERY WEEKDAY MORNING, DailyEdge.ie rounds up the best of the day’s celebrity dirt from the top to the very bottom. 

After keeping schtum for a few days, Conor McGregor has finally broken his silence on social media following his defeat to Floyd Mayweather on Saturday night. The Crumlin native shared a photo of him toasting a glas of whiskey and thanked fans for their support, evaluated the fight and paid tribute to Mayweather.

In true McGregor fashion, he stated that he felt he could have won had he improved his prep.

I had an amazing team and It truly was an amazing and enjoyable camp, and honestly I feel with just a little change in certain areas of the prep, we could have built the engine for 12 full rounds under stress, and got the better result on the night.
We started slowly getting to the 12 and decreasing the stress in the rounds the closer it got to 12. I think for the time we had, 10 weeks in camp, it had to be done this way. If I began with a loaded 12 rounds under much stress I would have only hit a brick wall and lost progress as a result and potentially not made the fight. A little more time and we could have made the 12 cleanly, while under more stress, and made it thru the later rounds in the actual fight.

He stated that the thirty-minute fight was the longest he had spent in the ring and was “happy for the experience”.

He also congratulated Mayweather on his performance and described him as a “heck of a boxer”.

His experience, his patience and his endurance won him this fight hands down. I always told him he was not a fighter but a boxer. But sharing the ring with him he is certainly a solid fighter. Strong in the clinch. Great understanding of frames and head position. He has some very strong tools he could bring into an MMA game for sure.

 

So now.

Kim Kardashian reckons North West would make a better president than Donald Trump. In fairness, she’s not wrong…

In an interview with Harper’s Bazaar, Kardashian criticised Trump and spoke about the country reverting backwards under his administration.

Anyone can run the U.S. better. My daughter would be better. We’ve worked so hard to get to where we were and to have so many things that we were so proud of in our country, to just literally revert backwards is the most frustrating thing.

“Every single day when you can’t really believe what’s going on, the next day it’s something else even more crazy and tragic,” she said. “It’s really scary, the world that we’re living in now. And when you did feel safe at home, now with Trump in presidency you just don’t feel safe anymore.”

Additionally, she told the magazine that she doesn’t follow Trump on Twitter.

I follow Obama though.
