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.

Ye trained with him a few ears back. Hardest puncher and best wrestler I ever seen. If he loses that tournament I'd be surprised.also the strongest sob. Hits like a heavyweight and is just as strong

Wow, high praise. I'm not surprised from seeing that short footage on the McGregor doc, he looked like he could have knocked McGregor out there. Can't wait to see that lad fight.

Anybody notice on tonight's episode when Conor is doing his photo shoot. He does a bodybuilding kinda flex. His entire left arm and shoulder has noticeably more muscle mass than his right

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

pablohoney87

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:

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"

My vote goes for the last 5 seconds of the last episode when Aldo gives the camera the death stare!! Excellent stuff!

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 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.

He'd be wayyyyy to small for that crack.

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
