Conor McGregor has led the tributes for Irish rockstar Christy Dignam after the Aslan frontman passed away following a lengthy illness that saw him hospitalised earlier this year.
McGregor and Dignam are both from Dublin and are beloved celebrities in their communities for their involvement in fighting and music respectively. The musician is from Finglas and was the lead singer of the chart-topping band until being put under palliative care last January, before spending the last few months at home under the care of his family.
And the UFC legend has taken to social media to pay tribute to his fellow Dubliner, leading the charge among other major names from Irish culture and sport. Dignam's band's biggest hit was the 1993 single Crazy World, although they topped the charts multiple more times in their native country.
