He was way to serious/ transfixed/not happy not enjoying himself and not doing his usual thing he was tense even though looked fit he was in fact in poor shape psychologically

Have you watched any of his previous fights. He always has his head down, "transfixed", "serious". His walk in and behaviour in the cage before the fight were exactly the same as always.

So you dont question someones pyschological state when a massive change occurs in their usual behaviour? You need to ask more questions if thats the case

Yes, obviously you have to ask hundreds more questions. Doctors don't make snap decisions based on a few seconds of dialog made under extreme circumstances so neither should you.

The Ayatolla · 20-04-2017 02:09PM

It's clear and there's enough evidence to suggest Aldo was acting strangely with all the extra media attention. Getting rattled when Conor grabbed the UFC media belt, when Conor grabbed his shoulder, acting up on Embedded saying he didn't want Conor to be near him, the weird stance in the weigh-in, to name but a few.

The 13-second knock out was purely down to Conor's elite skills and catching Aldo unexpectedly. There'll little more to it than that.

You are wrong for example he always shook hands with his oppoenent

cletus · 20-04-2017 06:34PM

Unless you have audio from his other fights where the things his corner are saying to him are demonstrably different from this particular clip, its means exactly nothing

He was psyched out to the point of not even being able to make eye contact with McGregor, he stared at the canvas

He does that for all his fights.

Leaving the arm chair sports psychology aside, I see he's back promoting his FAST programme on Instagram anyway. Must've got a bollocking from Dee :pac:

he'll usually close his eyes at first and look down but then he usually opens them and keeps looking down but this time, its like he strained his neck looking down so rigidly for 5 minutes and like he was never going to open his eyes, it was like he was some other place in his head

also usually he touches gloves after staring at the floor for this long period, but this time he didnt have that option as he was to angry so he cranking that neck for longer, all due to his psych state

I know it might seem like nothing but these are the types of videos that brings him back closer to the fans. Just a little reminder he's actually a fighter lol. Great stuff there from Conor.

They were referring to Aldo's corner talking in Portuguese to him. Not Conor's corner.

But unless you have something to compare it to, it's a bit meaningless. Maybe they always go on like that.

I know - they were telling him to stay calm. That is evidence of precisely nothing. The claim was that the video was proof of how McGregor was inside his head. True or not, the video shows nothing.

Telling someone to stay calm have evidence of someone not being calm. At the risk of being pedantic, it could be argued that they were telling him to remain calm ffs. Even if he wasn't calm, he was stepping into the cage for the biggest fight of his life and possibly the biggest fight in MAMA history. Again, that's not evidence that Conor was in his head. He may well have been, but the video is evidence of absolutely **** all.

These types of posts dont though.

I don't need glasses I just like how they look on my face even tho they tilt on me cos of my banged up nose and ears I still feel like I look good happy Thursday everyone how's that 75milli make your stomach feel? It's actually 100+ milli if we go by the non conservative numbers the fight will actually do and that's not including my endorsements and business ventures. 28 years of age. Fresh ****. Doubt me now

Not sure what that long post has to do with the post you quoted.

He has 0 defences (not that I give a flying f*ck - the whole "you're aren't a champ till you defend doesn't bother me).

Just because they have to strategise who he fights doesn't mean he doesn't have to fight for the belt.
There are money making fights for the belt at 155.

Ugh, I can't believe I'm talking about money making fights and not legitimate contender fights. The UFC is slowly becoming a total joke show with this sh*t

The UFC has been becoming more and more like a Prowrestling organisation for awhile. Even when it was still owned by Zuffa.

You should watch his other fights.
Maybe all his other opponents got in his head too.

This combine with the recent talk about McGregor fighting his next UFC fight soon. Could he be headlining 214?
