Conor McGregor Earns Spot on Time’s 100 Most Influential People List

April 21, 2017 | Posted by Jeremy Thomas

– Conor McGregor is one of the 100 most influential people, according to Time Magazine. The periodical ranked McGregor in their 100 Most Influential People of 2017 list in the “Pioneers” category alongside the likes of Ivanka Trump, Chance the Rapper, Jared Kusher, Riz Ahmed, Jordan Peele and Samantha Bee.

You can see McGregor’s entry, which was written by Arnold Schwarzenegger, here. Schwarzenegger wrote, “From the first time I met Conor, I knew he wasn’t the type of star you could box into one category. Since I’ve gotten to know him, I can tell you that what you see on the screen—the now familiar face of mixed martial arts—just scratches the surface. The Dublin native is razor-sharp, disciplined and charismatic. His energy is absolutely contagious, to the point where you almost start shouting in an Irish accent after 30 seconds of hearing that world-famous mouth.”

McGregor commented on his inclusion on the list, posting to Twitter:
