TS on that coke snorters nutsack really bad
Fair enough.but you stated it as a fact not the general rule. In general people come back worse but rarely they come back better, probably because it makes them more committed to working harder.
He's already the all time GOATand win the LW belt, is he the LW GOAT?
Two times champ and one time after a terrible injury
Thats something
And what if after that he goes to WW and win the belt against Usman or any champ
All time GOAT?

Serious question: what are the odds that Conor goes directly to the hospital after an Usman fight? 50%? More?
This is the most important aspect in my opinion.
Plain and simple: Conor does NOT have a big enough sample size when it comes to fighting LW fighters.
Great mentions with Ferguson or RDA: it's highly debatable whether Conor would have a chance to go all through those tough opponenst, ONE AFTER THE OTHER... but even lesser fighters like Felder or Barboza went through a murderer's row at LW... frankly, I would be VERY interested to see Conor vs Barboza's opponents in a row... what would have been Conor's record...
Conor is undeniably the most successful in terms of financial success, he is a marketing genius especially for his own brand and to be perfectly fair, he did win the fights that truly mattered the most and all in absolutely spectacular fashion. Knocking out arguably the greatest featherweight of all time in Jose Aldo, and the complete domination against then lightweight champion Eddie Alvarez.
IMO, Conor is going to go down (and should) go down as a great fighter who made absolute waves in the sport. But considered one of the "GOATS"? Absolutely not. Like you mentioned, there are so many other fighters more deserving of the same praise Conor is getting but isn't even getting half that.
Your threads are ridiculous. You always make some dumb hypothetical scenario, end it with "Discuss" and then I would guess get on another account and tell yourself how stupid your original post is.
He'll never be the GOAT, he's a washed up bum with a losing record in the LW division. He was never in any serious GOAT talk, so stfu @Murder_KickHC and go sit in the corner.If he becomes champion again then he is easily the GOAT.
I laughed out loud at the last part. But this is Sherdog, and I’m not sure what we’re doing here if we’re not here to entertain ludicrous hypotheticals.
Coming back and getting trounced by Khabib and Dustin saved us from endless preposterous threads speculating about his greatness. (Oh, wait……)
conor is a goat according to his fans, just ask themIf he becomes champion again then he is easily the GOAT.
Honestly at this point, I can't tell which are trolling and having fun and which ones actually believe Conor is part of the GOAT discussions. Had he skipped Diaz entirely and beat Alvarez after beating Aldo and then going on to fight Mayweather after that and his hardcore fans might have taken over Sherdog completely.
As soon as Mcgregor lost to Porier in their 2nd fight, I was hopeful and excited for all the possible matchups Mcgregor had available. Mcgregor vs Gaethje, Chandler, Hooker and even Barboza were (and honestly still is) great matchups for him. Might have even been beneficial had he won one more fight before going into the trilogy with Porier, business wise.
Oh well.
And what if after that he fights Ngannou, Drew McIntyre and Tyson Fury all at once becoming the UFC, WWE and Boxing heavyweight champ?and win the LW belt, is he the LW GOAT?
