I re-watched the Conor/Holloway fight. I remembered chuckling the first time I saw this fight because in between rounds 2 and 3 John Kavanagh offers some water to Conor and Conor says "Ehh a little bit, I feel great!".
I didn't realize though that this was right after he tore his ACL late in the second round.
I find it interesting that he knew he hurt himself (He said before that he felt the pop and let out a little scream, plus he said he intentionally took it to the ground in the third due to this injury) and was in pain but still didn't mention it at all in between rounds and instead just said "I feel great!"
I would've thought he maybe didn't feel the pain due to the adrenaline but he said he felt it and then altered his plan. I find his complete lack of care between rounds to be humorous. But hey, he is the GOAT.
