Man, you have cast that line well..... surely you will get a bite soon.
You don't have enough faith in Conor losing to even man-up and make a firm statement.
Obnoxious or not, the way he made Aldo face plant in the time it probably takes you to think of stupid things to write certainly puts him in the elite class. Why dont you try not to let your personal animosity get in the way of how you judge a fighter. It just makes you sound like a bit of tit.He's definitely decent, just not elite. And his obnoxious personality makes it very hard to root for him.
Like I said, all he has to do is win convincingly against RDA, which I don't think he can.

This troll thread was done already
ie: setting insane standards for respecting
Werdum is not elite due to various reasons are my favourite
Cause all he has showcased thus far are decent striking, mediocre grappling and outrageous luck.
Holloway was only 21 at the time, Brandao and Poirier are journeymen, Brimage and Siver should be fighting in the women's trawweight division, Mendes took the fight on 2 weeks notice and Aldo made a huge mistake and basically KOed himself.
McGregor should have lost his last 2 fights given his limited skillset and will most likely lose to all the top fighters at featherweight and lightweight unless he gets lucky again. I would even favor mid-tier fighters like Doo Ho Choi or Joseph Duffy over him.
McGregor will have to beat RDA in decisive fashion to prove he's really legit.
not elite lol i cant stand mcgregor have picked against him every time but u dont ko a guy flat that hasnt been beaten in 10 years without being elite.He's definitely decent, just not elite. And his obnoxious personality makes it very hard to root for him.

imo he is talented I just think that he can be beaten if guys follow the right game plan AND avoid getting emotional from the mental games
You have to understand it's not just about who won on paper but also about how he "won". Freak accidents do happen. GSP vs. Serra, Velasquez vs. JDS and Aldo vs. McFraud are all fights where the better fighter lost not because his skills were inferior but because he just happened to get caught.But that is really the key word there isn't it? He will never "convincingly" win in your eyes if a KO isn't proof enough.
If you had a 5 round war, you'll say he was overrated and should have lost.
If he wins by submissions, you'll say he just got lucky or RDA slipped.
