Ever since Conor said TJ is a snake on TuF, it's stuck to him, and his haters and Conor's fans will never drop it.
I think he should embrace it because, one, in context to what took place, calling him a snake, doesn't actually make any sense; it's like Conor didn't know what being a snake actually means (Duane Ludwig would be the snake, not TJ)... Conor just said it as a zinger and people ran with it w/o giving it any critical thought.
Secondly, embracing it would take the power away from his haters and change the meaning of the snake emojis they post; if he himself started to identify with all the deadly attributes of a snake, everyone posting snakes to mock him would have to stop doing it because it would look like they're his fans. I just think He should stop taking himself so seriously and use a nonsense statement by Conor to his advantage.
It would also give him something to market, both as a fighter in the octagon (it actually fits his fighting style, so it doesn't have to be just a gimmicky thing) and as a businessman who could sell a persona in the form of merchandise.
it's time for TJ "The Viper" Dillashaw to strike back!
