      The guy is a living legend. May not of ever been the best fighter in the ufc. But he made it mainstream for sure. His legendary trash talk, his aura, the way he can sell a fight is amazing. Plus first double champ and the iconic knockout of Jose Aldo. Plus the insane mayweather fight which knowone ever thought of or thought would ever happen.
      The guys name will live forever.

    4:48 "The day you stop trying to learn is the day you start losing" - Conor was a different man during his run up to knocking Jose Aldo in December 2015 and winning the featherweight title compared to who's been since fighting Floyd. He used to taunt opponents as a tactic rather than to stroke his ego, then the fame got to his head and he cared more about making money than being the best MMA fighter he could be. He used to be a master of human movement and have a PhD in unarmed combat, now he's a pretty good fighter and a great businessman. 2013-15 Conor was one of the highest peaks we've ever seen from an MMA fighter, hope he does well against Dustin for his sake.
