it's a good question actually- all right guys welcome back to the channel
okay so i had a had a message recently from a chap uh asking me about conor mcgregor now if you know
if you know who conor mcgregor is then you know all about him he's a very flamboyant mixed martial
artist fighter fight in the ufc former world champion um he uh has been in the news quite a lot
recently for a number of reasons um most of them professionally related he got into some bother
recently uh fighting with people in pubs and stuff like that but that's not what i'm gonna talk about
the reason why i'm talking about conor mcgregor uh is because um he's just bought a yacht or
apparently according to the press he bought he off i'm more more so towards uh joe rogan now regular
viewers will know i'm a fan of joe rogan i'm a fan of mixed martial arts i used to do martial arts a
long time ago back in the day um they didn't have mixed martial arts back then well they had it but
they didn't have the ufc and stuff like that anyway that's another story um but i'm a big
fan of joe rogan and he was talking with brendan schwab recently about conor mcgregor and there's
also in the tabloids there's a lot of confusion about which boat because it because conor mcgregor
owns a yacht all right and then when he went to fight in ufc 257 which was in dubai last week
he was on a yacht and there's a lot of mis information out there about whose yacht he
was on because because people know he has a yacht and they see him on this big yacht and they assume
that's the same yacht um it's not and also even in the i looked at one newspaper tabloid from the uk
called the sun and they were shown they showed a photograph and they said it says in in big words
conor mcgregor takes a photo from his yacht now in the yacht i'll put the picture up on
the screen if i zoom in onto the picture that's in the frame there it's actually a telephone
list for the yacht and it's very blurry but you can actually see it says moonlight 2 moto yacht
moonlight 2 that is not conor mcgregor's yacht that is a 91 meter or what's that
298 feet super yacht moonlight 2 and it's brand new and it's owned by um a sultan bin
khalifa al-nayan and he's from the united arab emirates he's worth about 30 billion dollars
that's his yacht and i don't know whether uh conor mcgregor chartered that yacht or whether
because because sometimes the rich and famous they invite people famous people onto the yachts
just because they want to meet them and um it's quite possible that the sultan might have said
you can use my yacht or conor mcgregor may have charted it and it's for charter at around 700
000 euros a week in high season so it's one on the other but he definitely doesn't own that yacht
okay so which yacht does he own so apparently he owns two yachts now there are i've seen
photographs of him from his uh his instagram page on a yacht and there's mixed photos this is where
there was confusion that some of the some of the photos from before the fight are from moonlight 2.
some of the photos after the fight are from his own yacht i'll put them up on the screen and um
that is his boat which is a um a vessel which is called a prestige 750 and that's actually
a 22 meter yacht um so that is a there's a big difference between the two depe it depends on
whether he bought it new or not um if he bought it on the second-hand market you probably paid
about uh one to two million dollars for it at 22 meters it still holds eight people it's very still
very nice don't get me wrong i would love to own it myself but it's very different from that
91 meter um okay so that's the thing that was the first thing now the second thing in the joe rogan
podcast he talks they talk about a friend of his own and a yacht and some of the things he says
is hilarious um but uh i i i will put some links so you can go and listen to what they talk about
but um what he talks about in that is that he just bought another another yacht and he talks
about a lamborghini yacht and then and then they show photographs of moonlight too and they say
yeah this is the yacht it's clearly not the yacht but obviously they don't know anything about it
so he's bought a lamborghini yacht which is a very limited edition and it's uh it's a very um
it's almost like a speed boat it's designed by lamborghini it does not have lamborghini
engines it has two v12 engines but they're not made by lamborghini and the value of that yacht
is about 3.4 million dollars and i think they're only making 63 of them and that is a uh i think
it's a 63 feet boat as well which is about 19 meters but it is designed predominantly for
you know talking about on the on the water and going fast and stuff like that it's
not a super yacht by any shape or form still very impressive but there is a big discrepancy
there so i just wanted to clear out clear up that discrepancy between the different yachts
all right guys i hope i found this um enjoyable uh i've never it's great that
i've managed to be able to talk about conor mcgregor and the ufc within my own channel
on on topic be a bit weird if i just started going on about the ufc on a yachting channel wouldn't it
i hope you enjoyed it anyway if you've got any questions about this
put them below as usual and we'll talk about it in the comments alright guys thanks bye
