    It's just a fan made video, the UFC would hardly be calling their legitimate champion a hyena or a jackal. It's counter productive for marketing.

    It also has that terrible stock "inspriational video" soundtrack used by everything from the CIA made "I am a ukranian" nonsense to fat to fit bloggers telling their sad stories.

    Absolutely horrific from Chael. An embarrassment.

    Thought the same when I seen it first myself, but when you look at the tweets it looks like he's just promoting his website and a new t-shirt that says "Red Panty Night" along with Las Vegas and the date of UFC 194 on it. So it just looks like him using Conor's name to get attention and make a few quid, rather than genuinely having a go, imo.

    Question is, is Conor in on it and getting a cut! If he's not he'll be looking for it! It's a complete rip off if Chael is simply stealing his lines and putting them on his own t-shirts.

    Conor will be appearing in my local teeny bopper nightclub on Friday night, 75euro for a meet and greet pic I believe. There are hardly too many fools who would pay that surely! The entry of 15 euro is bad enough, place is a kip like!

    Maybe because he beat Anderson Silva twice and is the last UFC fighter to hold 2 titles in 2 different weight classes at the same time.

    People talk about Pendred being the GOAT, but IMO Chael beats him hands down

    In this case he's trying to organise a charity event its all in good fun.

    If you ask me more fighters then not have been on the juice up until the last year or two. Chael was just unlucky as he was the first ever guy to be tested out of competition by the UFC. Wanderlay was the second.

    This weekend is 8 weeks out, I imagine that's the start of camp. People were suggesting he needs to go into camp from 13 weeks out, that's a recipe for burnout imo.

    I agree.

    He needs to get into the gym now and out of the spotlight.

    He has been relaxing and unwinding now for a good while.

    8 week's to the biggest fight in his life.

    In fairness to Conor, AFAIK he's still training, he's not just ****ing around getting pissed and eating steak, he's still going into the gym most days of the week.
