VIDEO: Irish fans were having almighty craic at Holly Holm’s Q & A

The Irish were out in force

“The place was green, there were fucking leprechauns floating about.”

Irish fans descended upon Holly Holm’s Q & A in Las Vegas before the UFC 194 weigh-ins and completely stole the show.

The recently crowned UFC women’s bantamweight champion seemed massively entertained by the antics of Irish fight fans who had made the trip for Conor McGregor’s title shot against Jose Aldo.

Holm had to endure being serenaded on more than one occasion, as well as some actual real life leprechauns (on closer inspection, they seem to be normal people in costume) dancing a very memorable Irish jig.

Michael Flatley, eat your heart out.
