I love the Old Conor's wrestling like promos, but he has to apply it to someone who easily gets triggered like Khabib or a Diaz for it to work.
Poirier is the kind of guy who shrugs his shoulders and lets it roll off his back

All these MMA guys are just acting...there's simply no point discussing it. Some perhaps are weird in real life, but the bigger than life machismo that McGregor shows is just to sell tickets. He knows how to play the game to get paid more.
As for this fight, I surprisingly think he wins it in two rounds. It's probably more even than people think considering if Connor get knocked out again his star status is pretty dead in the water. This is his last opportunity to show he's legit, so I think he's working hard.

Not all of them. Conor legit pissed off Khabib. That's why he was still so pissed even after he beat Conor and all that BS happened after it was over.
But yeah, the smart ones that want to make more money use trash talk to get PPVs

Totally true. I know most of these guys understand that after the fight is over there will be hugs all around, etc, etc. With Khabib, I wonder if it really wasn't understood culturally, especially with Conor crossing the line insult-wise? 99% of guys know it's an act to sell ticket or hype yourself up. Khabib took it as a legit personal insult.
I won't be paying for this one. I don't like the over the top gamemanship. I liked St. Pierre's approach for some time, but I also like Nate Dias' approach of just not caring. Conor's, at legitimately hate because of the meatheads that tend to holler at each of his events. He has a cult following and each one of them are annoying.

Joe Rogan is just the worst, he always has a favorite in every bout and calls it one sided. He is like those homer NHL colour guys.

That Hall guy is unwatchable in the ring. I can understand why no one wants to fight him. Absolutely awful and a horrible fighting style and strategy.

This green haired guy has eaten about 100 punches/kicks and still keeps going forward.
"He's killing you Rocky"
"No, he's getting tired"

Moutinho is showing a lot of heart, if he takes O'Malley to decision he should consider that a win - especially when he took the fight on 10 days notice.
O'Malley doesn't look championship level, he would wilt in a 5-round fight against a ranked fighter

Ha Rogen said it.
"He's absorbed 180 shots, now 181 shots, and he's moving forward like a green haired zombie"

That's BS. C'mon, Herb
He was still moving forward, he deserved to take it to decision.

That looked like a bar fight, 2 huge guys just wildly swinging at each other until one falls down.
