I can't even start to understand his reasons. Only an idiot would do that!!! :rolleyes: The lad is 19/20? He's plenty of time to "be his own person". Right now its about getting his name out there and becoming better known. He's obviously doing something right if he's got into the world's 2nd biggest MMA promotion after only 3 fights. Be back later, I see some kids outside playing football pretending to be Ronaldo. I'll have to go out and shout at them for being so stupid when they would be better trying to be a Robbie Savage or Ali Dia :P

Gamebred wrote: » Someone called him a McGregor wanna be,nobody is abusing the lad it was an observation,its not a personal attack on him if he was american and acting the same way it'd be commented on too.

Whelo79 wrote: » Again, he is 19. Has your mate ever bought anything that you thought was deadly and then you went out and got it yourself? There's people all over the country that go out and buy **** because they see people on TV with it. I don't see the issue (for now). Sure how many years is the lad training in SBG with Conor, of course traits will have rubbed off. As long as he is not a Conor clone in 2 or 3 years time, all is good. Anyway At the end of the day I'm sure we are all hoping he wins and goes on to big things.
Whelo79 wrote: » Well said Dev. I've been thinking the exact same thing. The lad doesn't know his own identity yet. He's grown up as an impressionable kid watching his gym mates path to success, so of course some of that is going to leave an impression on him. I can never understand why some people are so eager to throw negativity people's way.
