Wrong country. You're thinking of Northern Ireland lol.
The only action Dublin saw during "The Troubles" was before the 80's and even then it wasn't much at all.
Carl Frampton grew up in a war zone though.
I know you're trolling anyway.

The TS is purposely trolling. As a former Pac fan and after seeing Pac lose to Horn this is what he's resorting to. Rooting for Conor. Lmao.He's from Crumlin and grew up there and then moved to Lucan with his family which is pretty nice mostly. Very suburban and also has a village.
The worst parts of Dublin are in the northern part of the city such as Ballymun and Finglas, places Conor lived nowhere near.
Conor had a fairly comfortable upbringing compared to many other working class folk in other parts Dublin and lived in fairly decent areas. Definitely far from a rough upbringing.Comment

Dublin is the birthplace of the troubles. The majority of ira came from there. He grew up during a war you can't dispute that. The ceasefire was what 97-98. Connor was alive during that time.Comment

He was alive during that time, but all the action was up in Belfast. Also, the IRA formed in Dublin but The Troubles was happening in Northern Ireland and started there too.
If you understand the history of it, then you'll understand why everything happened in Belfast, not Dublin. Very, very, very little happened in Dublin after the 70s and 80s and even before that, it was quite sporadic.
In fact, there were more incidents in England than Dublin in regards to The Troubles during Conor's lifetime.
Not even sure why i'm replying to a troll actually, i need to find something better to do.
Anyway, all in all, Conor grew up in a leafy suburb which his family moved to.Last edited by TheBigLug; 08-17-2017, 03:40 PM.Comment

Creds go to McG for the "Rags to Riches" story. Never will put anyone down for coming up, it's a helluva story. But I am concerned about the boxing story, how will it be written, how will it end and what are the outcomes for the stories end.Comment

Was Conor's father ****** or lazy that he couldn't properly support his family? If so then why have a kid if you can't take proper care of him? I don't care how poor Conor was growing up. It won't save him from the ass kicking Mayweather will give him. I respect Conor as a great cage fighter and one hell of a salesman but he is totally unproven as a boxer. For Christ sake if you are going to start 20 threads a day about the wonderfulness of Conor then spell his name right. It's CONOR not CONNOR.Comment
