Conor McGregor has always been a hype job

[defjaam]

.... with the UFC giving him opponents that he matches up well with stylistically.

 

[2004 account]

Of course he was, ever since he got that ufc forced artifical marketing push it was clear that he was overhyped.

You can hate the guy all you want but you’re kind of shitting on Aldo, Mendes, Eddie, etc. when you say this kind of thing.

Is it not possible to say “I hate that fucking guy but he had some wins over some top guys?”

 

[I Always Fight]

Conor is dustins best win though

 

[wolfss]

He got lucky a few times at the perfect time!!!

 

[V-Money]

Ronda 2.0

 

[JustBLEED123]

UFC protected him and gave him favorable matchups for sure, he never fought a wrestler until 7 day no gas tank Chad Mendes.

Just remember.......


Never defended.

 

[DrunkMonkMeth]

He lookes incredible up to the eddie fight. He was hungry and ambitious. Afte4 the eddie fight it went down hill... honeslty had he stayed 145 he could still be champ.

 

[D. Lynch]

Dude had title eliminator fight vs Dennis Siver ffs

 

[5thDimensionMMA]

No he wasnt. He destroyed Dustin,Jose aldo,max back in the days with ease. Hes not the same fighter anymore.

 

[Breaking]

Supremely talented fighter who wilts the minute things get hard.

 

[mmaElite53]

YEah hype stiffened Aldo in 13 seconds..

 

[Curmudgeon]

Imagine being a mcnugget fan...

He fluked aldo

Alvarez was definitely his best fight in the ufc

Mendes was short notice

UFC thought Dustin was going to be a layup for Conor lol he really blew it for Dana

 

[Austinus]

Plus the loaded gloves incident at ufc 194. Dana did everything he could to make him a star.

 

[nevernamed]

Rhonda 2.0, just dragged out over 4+ years.. How anybody could be happy being a fan of his after watching his antics since november 2016 and getting whooped by Khabib and Poirier is beyond me

 

[Lights Out 101]

He was legit in his first run to be champ champ while he was still hungry,

Being ridiculously wealthy, snorting Coke and boozing it up most nights aged him by 20 years.

 

[Augustus Caesar]

I don't think it would make sense to conclude that Conor was a hype job after he lost to someone whom he has already beaten.
