he does every time he opens his mouth about being the best in the world. ;)
He's a bit of a Rhonda Rousey type situation where the hype has well passed the reality. Pissing Aldo off and getting into his head and catching him as he charged forward with a punch in a few seconds doesn't make him the best in the world. Beating Mendes who took the fight on short notice and gassed himself out while beating the shit out of McGreggor, doesn't make McGreggor better than Mendes. He's done very well as a mediocre fighter in branding himself and drawing pay per view numbers and ticket sales. But he's unproven as a top tier champion by any measure.
Mendes in particular showed how incredibly weak his ground game was and he was absolutely 100% helpless under him. Chad gassed himself out, taking a fight on short notice, but otherwise took him down at well and ground it out with no answer from McGreggor. Lucky for him, Diaz will try to box. On a side note, probably the biggest paycheck Diaz will ever earn in his life. He's extremely fortunate to get that fight.

So glad to see this clown exposed by a middle of the pack veteran with no training camp.
I wonder how well his trash talk will work now when everyone can say he was beat by 11 day skinnyfat Diaz.
I hear that this diaz guy was not able to drop to agreed weight (155 or something, then it was 160, then it was 165 when finally Connor agreed to 170).
Yup. Sounds like his plans to go up and fight Lawler are now on hold. Lol. Even Dana was drinking his own kool-aid before he got beat. Saying he wouldn't rule out a fight with Hendricks if Conor wanted it. I'm guessing that won't happen now.
I don't think that's true. Dana is getting better and better and better at filling seats in stadiums, at filling stadiums and selling PPV.. He's going to create the fights that do that. Not because he favors a fighter but because it will sell tickets and grow the sport
... Now, the shit that comes out of Rogans mouth is another story

Yep. Imagine the hype if Conor goes back and defends his featherweight title and Diaz fights for and wins the lightweight title then the two of them meet for a rematch.

Rousey was great for the UFC's numbers. Conor is much better and making much more. I see him sticking around and pulling the same crap every single fight. The last bunch of trash talk was awesome and even though i don't like McGreggor much, that line on CNBC
Host: "lets talk about numbers" [payouts]
Conor "Yeah Nate, lets talk numbers, try to count to 5 for us"
and everything else was pretty funny. I kinda like him for that reason. He is over hyped as a fighter, he's nothing special really and will have to really pull it together and stop with the hands down, punching from the waist, wheel kicks etc.. but as a showman, he's doing great and its paid off for him in a huge way.
Diaz said it best "i've got 25 fights in the UFC and i am still wondering when its going to pay off".... that in itself tells you what a McGreggor is worth, vs a Diaz. It has little to do with a record and skill, for sure and a whole lot to do with who can fill seats. A terminally stoned trailer trash gangbanger who doesn't care about anyone or anything, can't make people want to watch fights and can't sell tickets.

Not one, just like in Seinfeld and Friends. But I can always count to on you hand on my balls tightly in every thread I post in. Now, son, before you head out towards the bus station for you lunch shift, make me some kool aid and stfu.
