i have always enjoyed watching him fight but i could never root for conor
simply because of the rubbish some of his fans were spouting, calling him the GOAT and number 1 P4P despite the fact he had zero title defences
they were saying he would KO robbie and be the first three division champion before he had even fought for a second
now that the hype train has derailed and hopefully those people have realised they were being delusional i feel i can actually become a conor fan
he has a great style, he hits hard and he goes for the finish which is something i enjoy to watch
but he has massive holes in his wrestling and grappling and this is something i have always recognised, i actually bet on nate to win via sub because of this as i recognised that if the fight hit the mat the gap between nates grappling and conors grappling is much wider than the difference between their comparitive striking
his striking is elite and he could finish anyone put in front of him,but he could also lose to anyone as well which is why i enjoy watching him and will hopefully be able to do so for some time
TLDR
now the hype train has been derailed and the fanboys have been shut up, us normal MMA fans can enjoy mcgregor for what he is and not root for him to lose every fight
