Official Conor McGregor Thread (READ MOD WARNING IN OP)

pablohoney87

OK guys,

The dust has cleared on the disaster that was the last thread. The biggest culprits won't be joining us here (Or anywhere else on the forum). Others have been warned in PMs.

This thread is a clean slate for everyone but there will be zero tolerance on it.

I remind all users to take a fresh look at the charter before posting here.

FIGHTER BASHING OF ANY KIND WILL NOT BE TOLERATED.

It doesn't take a Masters in English to know the difference between a negative opinion of somebody and name calling.

This Thread is for all things about Connor that won't go into event threads. I.E. all speculation about opponents, his twitter posts, public appearances and media.

Once a fight has been announced and an event named all news relating to that fight can go into the event thread.

My own opinion on McGrogor vs Sanchez (Finally), this is an awful fight for sanchez I think. Especially if he loses to Connor at WW he is finished. Diego gets by with half decent striking and wrestling and the rest on athleticism and aggression.

Conors footwork is just too good to be held against the fence and isnt that much smaller than Diego. If Connor loses he'll probably get his wrist slapped by Dana and told to wise up and stick to 145, worst case scenario. Diego has much much more to lose in this fight and I think his emotions will get the best of him and we'll see something similar to Brimage.

But being honest I don't see the fight happening. Dana is probably getting a bit sick of fighters calling opponents out so publicly and he and his match makers will still want to be seen as the ones pulling the strings.

I think his dad is hilarious. He's like something out of Fr. Ted (I mean that in an endearing way!). He's obviously embarrassing but in the type of way that only a parent can be.

The Ali poster debacle is already a classic in my eyes.

Think you hit the nail on the head here moneyman...he actually would fit in well in Fr. Ted. He's cringeworthy to watch but in an endearing way, he's obviously just a Dad really enjoying his son doing well and fair play to him!

Overeem probably could have done a job in WWE when he was all juiced up. He's pretty comfortable in front of the camera and had a lot of hype behind him around the time of the Brock fight.

I reckon if Vince McMahon could hand pick one UFC fighter he would go for Ronda without any hesitation

I am in the whole hype train atm and I am wondering if perhaps later on Conor Mcgregor might go to WWE or some pro wrestling company. I mean he has the charisma to do well I believe and might do well. I am not talking about him like brock lesnar because lesnar was already long established as an excellent wrestler before he headed to wwe.
I know wwe is scripted and more drama while UFC is well discipline martial art fighting.

Doubt it, if WCW was still around it would be a possibility. Ted Turner would offer him a briefcase full of cash & he is in the business for the short term to make money. They had David Arquette on at one time & won the belt

Why on earth would he want to go to the pantomime instead of the real deal?

I forgot to comment on it at the time but I noticed in one of the earlier episodes the really great picture(Ali knocking out Liston) from the first documentary was hanging on the wall :P

He's just a normal Dad. I reckon most people would cringe a little if theirs got in front of the camera.

Seems a lovely guy and is a bit of a character............ THE HORROR :eek:

Lol yeah. Your forgetting everybody needs to be a perfect human being these days in order to avoid the hate train of all the masters of behaviour out there.

He's a typical Dad, just being himself.

I thought the best part of the series was him walking down the hall doing the Vince McMahon "No chance thats what you've got"

I find him a bit of a tool to be honest - i always end up cringing at what he has to say. I'm sure he is just enjoying the ride and happy for his son but he makes my teeth grate.

he seems like a really nice guy who is playing up for the cameras
probably should get "media training" but then people will think he's false
