Conner will approach aldo very differently than siver, he could toy with siver, which makes getting a title shot of the back of beating siver all the more ridiculous.

He got the title shot after destroying Poirier who was ranked number 5.

Conor asked for another fight as he was still just coming back from injury and wanted to stay active. Most of the other top ranked feather weights were already booked to fight each other. So they gave him Siver, but he probably would of gotten the shot whether he fought Siver or not.

The Siver beat down just kept him fresh in peoples heads when others were saying Edgar should get the shot. So it was well played by Conor imo,

Sums up the McGregor fanbase and one McGregor has created. Bellends. The press conference is cringe worthy.

McGregor is no role model. As a Dub I'm embarrassed that he is a representative of us. He needs to learn humility and hopefully Aldo teaches it to him.

Feel free to quote where I said everyone dresses like him.

And you shouldn't confuse disturbed with disgusted.

I did a search for the earliest Conor McGregor post and I found this:

http://touch.boards.ie/thread/2055019710/12/#post52654767

Some semi pro mma fight from January 2007. Conor was just 18. Posted up by John Kavanagh. Held at some local hall, I presume. Tickets sold in local sports shops.

From such humble beginnings for both men, now setting forth towards a UFC title fight at the MGM Grand. It puts things in perspective, I think. Especially for any youngster starting out right now.

PS: McGregor won by tko in the first round!

I think the dust has finally settled on what was an embarrassing few minutes in the Irish MMA world. I think Petesy Carroll summed it up perfectly in his article, few lads along for the session, not MMA fans, nothing more, nothing less.

Anyways moving swiftly on, did Conor stay in Dublin to train or is he splitting his camp between SBG and Vegas?

I
On thing that bugs me is I have a beard (for about 7 years) and like to wear suit jackets on a night out (no Dixie bows or caps) and the amount of people who say " oh trying to be like Mcgregor" no its the way i dress now piss off .

I've had a beard for ten years or more, but I'm apparently a hipster now. Pay no attention, just be yourself.

My Mrs thought they were the same person, especially when Conor fought Dustin.

I'm not sure what he's getting at here? Is he being supportive? Sarcastic?

Being Conor, I assumed it would be a joke but looking at it does appear genuine? He's probably thinking fair play to cub and wants to get his own notorious belts made!!

moneyman · 04-04-2015 6:51pm

He's definitely being sarcastic.

JJayoo · 04-04-2015 9:08pm

He means that Cub is a bum who won't be making any money worth mentioning in the UFC, so he will throw him a bone and use his amazing fame and superstar status to help him out.

Zero-Cool · 05-04-2015 10:29am

Haha yeah asking for some durable belts to tie around his stacks of money to keep them organised. He's some wind up merchant
