Is there even demand for Conor in 2025???

[HHJ]

polarizing figure and someone people want to spend money on to cheer for and watch fight are two very different things...

No, its not.

You either want them to win or you pay to see them die.

In 2026 connor isn't in the same league as 2016 connor, And Never Will Be. There is no redemption arc short of him repelling down the side of a burning skyscraper with a baby in his arms saving it from certain death does he regain even a shred of his former popularity... Did you see the poll in the other thread.... he's a washed up, coke addled, has been and Nobody that cares for the sport gives a fuck about connor...

you are thinking like a real MMA fan. Conor draws people who have never been on an MMA forum. People who can't name 1 other fighter. People who don't keep up on Conor's personal life and don't give a shit about that. On top of those, plenty of real MMA fans will tune in out of sheer curiousity.

The UFC let that CM Punk dude fight, why are you surprised?

Yeah, it was cool AF that everyone told Punk it wasn't going to be a real fight.

 

[uff]

NO!

 

[skylolow]

Conor is closest thing MMA had to someone like Mike Tyson. Yes, people will tune in.

 

[Söze Aldo]

No, its not.

You either want them to win or you pay to see them die.

Conor is unique in that casual MMA fans still likely want to see him win but the hardcore fans want to see him get smashed.

 

[cmw43]

there's still people that didn't get the memo that the UFC is getting rid of the PPV model?

They still need names to bring eyes to a Landmark event like the White House card.

I really wish there wasn't demand, he'll clear 1M buys easily if there still are PPV buys. I was a fan of his rise up, but he's a clear example of what can go wrong when fighters get paid too much.

 

[SalvadorAllende]

Not really. We only had to delete 30 threads dedicated to his dong..

@Versez was all crazy about that.
It was the day he finally came out the closet

You wish you had a massive dong.

 

[SalvadorAllende]

You wish you had a massive dong.

You think that was massive? lol

 

[Kowboy On Sherdog]

You wish you had a massive dong.

You can skip leg day... but never skip dong day.

 

[Versez]

You can skip leg day... but never skip dong day.

GSP had quite a massive one, saw it once when i went to a club toilets back in 2008. in Montreal.

 

[Versez]

You think that was massive? lol

It was kind of large.

 

[JoeBobbaLou2]

Unfortunately yes, he knows how to market himself and is a cash cow

 

[MarleyLynx]

We need to pump those numbers up rookie

 

[TITS]

The majority of his fan base are not MMA fans, they are celebrities, athletes, wanna-be influencers, casuals, and ultra-casuals.

These are basically all the same thing.

 

[shunyata]

Conor is washed.

Jon too.

Now they tryna act like they can get Rhonda.

For the white house dinosaur exhibition fights.

 

[Tweak896]

Casuals are mma retarded, never underestimate them. Plus people hate buying to hope to see him get KO'd. The long drawn out time in between probably brings interest.

Wish it wouldn't sell, but it would. Silver lining maybe UFC would stack the rest of the card and maybe someone else can get popular.

Perhaps Conor be a spokesperson in some commercial...
