Conor haters are just simply haters.

[Jarvan]

Random fan: Machida wins fights by running away. I hate his elusive style.
Conor comes straight forward.

Rf: Oh my god, he pulled out of the fight again?!
Conor fought injured, no hesitation.

Rf: Man it would be cool if more people tested other weight classes.
Conor has shown ample interest.

Rf: MMA is slowly dying.
Now it's too popular with all these new Conor fans. gawdammmmit.

Rf: Fighters don't fight enough in a year.
Conor has fought 6 times in a year and a half. Impressive, having them all been main events.

Before you automatically flare your hater ego, just let it sink in a bit. Everything many of you have been complaining and wishing for in MMA has been vindicated. With bright stars like Conor, Ronda, and Holly, MMA has been getting the spotlight. More spotlight = more money for fighters/more fights for us to enjoy.
I'm sure some of you hate the boasting and shit talk, but then maybe the fight game isn't for you.
Let's remember Mohammed Ali used to bring loud speakers and belch insults at his opponents months before their fight. And if you take a look around, many more fighters are now being more vocal about their matchups. Regardless of whether you agree with it or not, it's doing more good than harm for our sport. No casual fan will start following MMA from watching a tame elite fighter i.e. most top 10 fighters in the world.
I know many of you have really sad lives, and love watching people who chase their dreams crash and burn... but at least keep it civil will ya? And if you wake up one day and realize how sad that mentality is, well then, conor bless.

Agree with most of what you said, BUT, this IS a discussion board.

When the Conor fanbase keep using the phrase "haters gonna hate" to justify whatever actions of his that might be called in to question is tantamount to saying that standards of common sense and decency don't apply to Conor and that no matter what Conor do, no matter how foolish and reprehensible, normal MMA fans are not allowed to reprimand Conor for that action because that makes them a "hater" and you're simply "hating" out of jealousy or other irrational bullshit like "Herp he destroyed your favorite fighters derp"

The overabundance of the word "Hater" word in this day and age just one example of how the Conor fanbase are being lead down a dangerous path of unprecedented ignorance, apathy and vanity just like Conor

Calling someone a "hater" because they said some criticism about Conor makes the member of the Conor fanbase look ignorant or stupid for giving negative feedback, basically dismissing an argument without addressing it by using a personal insult.

 

[Loiosh]

People hate him because he's the most obnoxious guy in MMA.

He's obviously skilled.

 

[The Witcher]

The internet really is the best and worst thing of the modern era.

 

[Leopoldos]

Amen to that brother.

 

[GordonMMARamsey]

He wouldn't be so bad if his fans weren't so awful.

 

[danny23]

McGregor fans act as though Conor's haters are insulting a dead family of their's.

 

[El Hombre]

How he fights has nothing to do with why people can't stand him. It's because he's a disrespectful, lying, wrestler-dodging moron with horrendous tattoos.

I think mostly everyone enjoys watching him fight.

 

[Deleted member 502383]

I made a thread about haters too... Didn't go well for me

 

[fnord]

Conor lost.

 

[ScarfaceJr]

You're pathetic

 

[Credo]

Conor bless ya TS

To hate someone beacuse of their tattoos says a lot about you.

And to say he has dodged wrestlers is nearly as thick. He is gonna fight the person he just lost to, which is a tougher fight which has already been proven.

Haters gonna hate bro. Conor haters are the worst kind of species we have in mankind currently. Low of the low. Ppl who contradict their every move and word.

First time I've seen so many ppl hate because they believe this is actually Conor's personality. Love it though.

Conor still bless you haterz all.

 

[antithetic]

More money for the top 1% in the PPV earner rankings. The rest get Reebok track pants.

Your hero is the one that spews hate towards everyone. I have no problem with Holly.

 

[Goonerview]

Great post. I wish I could like it twice. Amen.

What ignorance?
Apathy? Don't you mean the opposite of that?
Vanity? Oh you mean people seeing Conor as a role model? Like his attitude?
If blindly following your deepest belief is ignorance, then sign me up bro.
I wish I had the moxie to do that.

 

[catnap]

All these sad living haters, hating on Conor. Makes my blood boil, so it does.

 

[AJ Garcia]

Awaiting Brazil wand's entrance into the thread. Dude hates Conor more then anyone on this board. Even before his loss, if there was a thread on conor, he would be in it hating away.
