Even when rousey was doing her thing most hardcore sports folk in mainstream media considered her opponents to be lower tier and She obviously wasn't doing huge ppv numbers.

With Conor I've never seen anything like it , big players in national sorts media are in love with Conor after this fight , with him stepping up a weight and allowing the fight At 170 on top of that. Even local sports radio has spent more time talking about Conor , entire segments, beaming over the fight. Unheard of. I think his next fight if the card is stacked appropriately will do another huge 1.5mil plus buys.
 
The king is back

This happens to everything cool in this world.

You like something, it's awesome, and then corporate scum come in, fuck it up, and profit.

MMA is hardly all about Conor.

Conor is hardly the most elite fighter. There are way more deserving guys.

In the all time rankings, Conor is barely top 50.

Rankings are no more.

Respect is long gone.

Conor is an exellent 145-er. The best right now. But thats it. He is no king. His accomplishments are not out of this world.

Fucking media scum.

Respect and rankings are for niche sports and hardcore fans. You need huge numbers of casuals to push a sport to the next level

You're such a hipster

Btw, MMA became corporate when UFC bought out Strikeforce and DREAM And Sengoku died. That was a last bastion of the wild days of MMA.

Next level meaning Dana & Co make ton of money and buy fake snow ?

There is no next level.

People fight, there are divisions, one is best in each division.

HW is the strongest dude.

That's it. No hidden truth no nothing. Just competition and people watching it.

Media as always is fucking everything up.

I used to listen to hip-hop, excellent music form, had soul and meaning. Now it's run by midget crackheads. Much like MMA minus the crackhead part.

It seems that the whole world is run by midgets nowadays.
 
Another example right there.

Salty. A legit witty response in certain cases.

And now everyone is using it for everything.

You are salty though. Conor is the ppv King . Additionally, outside of Mighty Mouse what dominant champ is there right now?

Actually I'm happy he won. I like Conor.

But why can't we just enjoy the win like normal people.

What's with the lies, exaggerations and hyperbole.

He is no king, not the best anything except 145-er.

Nate is not the best anything either. He is lower top tier. That's it.

There is a next level , more casuals = more buys or views = bigger pay days. 15 million for one fighter would have been a complete dream 10 years ago

Not a big Connor fan but he's certainly top 50... Cmon ....

All hail the king.

The guy is an animal. You cannot discredit what this man has accomplished and what makes it even more impressive is HOW.
Let's see what else he can do in the sport
 
I don't see how more mainstream attension is anything but a good thing for everyone involved in MMA.

OP should STFU.

Says the guy with Diaz in his sig.

Salty.

How is he top 50 ? Thats ridiculous.

He has 1 quality win, and 2 half quality wins.

The quality win is Aldo. And that was HUGE.

The other two halves were Nate and Chad.

That really doesn't make you an all time great.

Again, I really like Conor. He's not a bad person, and he's a very good fighter.

But do we really need all this reality show Brittney Spears bullshit. I mean really ?
