Did Nate's victory at the press conference affect the outcome?

Usually, Conor mentally beats his opponents at the initial press conferences. However, Nate shredded Conor at their press conferences. Did this affect Conor mentally going into the fight?

I don't agree that Nate "shredded" Conor at the presser, though it was an amusing back and forth. Diaz beat Conor because he's the better, more well-rounded fighter. His durability helps, too.

McGshit was just lucky in the past fights, until yesterday, that's it.

Lucks easy to come by when you hand pick all opponents

 

[chunglii]

No, but his victory in the fight affected the outcome.

 

[Arm Barbarian]

No, but his victory in the cage did.

He broke Conor mentally by being the TOUGHER fighter.

Absorbed everything McG had and just kept coming. You could see Conor's will deflating as the fight carried on.

Nope Rampage got his ass beat during the stare down at the weigh in at Rampage vs Silva 3 but during the fight Rampage almost knocked the ugly of Silva's ugly ass. Stare down is for the casuals they get all into it, almost like an orgasmic experience for them when the fighters could not give a shit less. Conor created his own media demise by actually thinking Nate Diaz was going to tuck tale and run during the stare downs so he got frustrated when it did not happen, walks into Nate's fist 2 times and slaps it away like Nate stuck his fist in his face. That Unstoppable press conference I was really shocked at how Chris Weidman, Faber, and even DC a little was acting. I seen 2 McGregor wanna be's and the attitude did not fit Chris Weidman at all it was awkward. I guess the casuals loved it they are the only ones who masturbate to trash talk anyway.
