    My opinion totally changed on him after watching his film you could see him become more of a * the more money he was making

    I've disliked him from the start, could just see right through him that he was a *.

    He’ll fight before the end of the year, video is from April. Dana confirmed that afterwards. Video needs context but it doesn’t look great at all for him.

    Diaz/Pettis, winner will call him out regardless.

    Khabib/Poirier, Poirier calls him out right away. Khabib says he doesn’t deserve rematch.

    Had a feeling it was older because his beard looks longer, before he’d shaved it.

    Made me question if it was even him but it obviously is.

    Papers are running with the old guy no even flinching after a punch. Honestly think if mcgregor punched a normal person never mind an old guy that they would still be standing, never mind eatin it like it was nothing hahaha.

    EDIT: On another viewing he defos punches him, old * hard as nails.

    It looks like he has a glass in his hand but i think its the reflection of his watch. Definite punch.

    Hard to tell because he’s got a drink in his hand I’m sure. Guessing witnesses confirmed he punched him mind you. Guys solid.

    If his left hand renders Jose Aldo unconscious, it would kill an old drunk standing at a bar.

    It was a pot shot, he’d be up in court for attempted murder/murder otherwise.

    I dont have much interest in him coming back now either, I want to see him against Ferguson and Holloway but I don't think he'd fight them now as he always seemed to tire early and they are machines who could batter him over several rounds. I think he'd be more worried about getting knocked out or punched * out of as it looks bad where as I don't think he minds beind smothered by Khabib as it looks like less of a battering and only think he will fight guys like Diaz anyway who isnt even that good.

    Confirms my ‘Conor is a *’ theory.

    He did something * and did it badly. Points won for Conor but the old drunk bloke wins the event.

    The entire world wants to see him fight again, liking him or not. * or not.

    He is Box Office.

    People have and will continue to rapidly lose interest.

    No different to any other big sports star in that respect.

    For now, he’s the biggest star in MMA. By a long, long, shot.

    It's all just a bit boring now, having him as the poster boy for MMA just makes the sport look bad for everyone.

    The old guy isn't that tough, being punched by a 155lbs midget would be less than a bee sting.
