Irish MMA fighter Ryan Curtis recently suffered a devastating injury that all but destroyed his MMA career. Now, at ICU, a GoFundMe account is there to support Curtis and his family. Curtis’ countryman Conor McGregor donated $30K to Curtis’ GoFundMe account. Fight fans received the act of compassion from McGregor with open arms.

McGregor recently made his political ambitions known with his social media tweets. He recently built houses for the homeless in his country. The crisis of homelessness is a big problem in Ireland. For Curtis, the act of charity most likely does not have any political ambitions. It is most likely due to his respect for a fellow athlete.

Curtis’ injuries are horrifying. The flyweight fighter injured his neck, back, and spinal cord. He is in the ICU and can only move his right arm. The injury happened on January 11th as he was in a training camp to headline a Cage Conflict event in February. With a 7-4 record, Curtis has faced current UFC flyweight Amir Albazi and once competed in a Bellator card. Nonetheless, the reason for his injury remains undisclosed.

Conor McGregor has an affinity for charity. He donated over a million dollars to PPE Kits during the COVID-19 pandemic. Moreover, he also donated half a million dollars to a Louisiana-based charity after his fight with Dustin Poirier. McGregor is a regular donor to his childhood football club, Lourdes FC. These are among the many reasons why many in Ireland and outside view him as the ideal candidate to become the President of the country.

McGregor mentioned Curtis as ‘Curta’ in the story, which may allude to the fact that he knew Curtis even before the injury. The Irishman’s Instagram story showed deep compassion toward his fellow athlete. When a person with the reach of McGregor shares Curtis’s plight, it will reach a larger audience, and that will help Curtis get the financial benefit he needs.

McGregor recovered to full health after his disastrous leg break at UFC 264. From McGregor’s point of view, it may seem like his plight was nothing compared to what Curtis went through. McGregor will potentially return on June 29, 2024, against Michael Chandler.
