because they have written his opponent off to such an extent it may have influenced His camp.
People like Helwani or Stephan A. Smith were doing it blatantly writting off one party openly. McGregor could have kinda got used to that environment for the whole week. If you keep hearing people doubting your opponent for 2 weeks straight it sticks with you.
There was talk about Khabib 2, Nate 3, Manny Pac, etc etc. This was the questions he was getting they even stopped talking about the fight itself. Sherdog was also suffering from the same syndrome.
I remember even making a thread about this days before the fight - You just can't write off a dengerous guy like Dustin. He can end anyone in the division if they commit a slight mistake his at that level. He has power in his hands, can grapple and go for 5 rounds
