What if lbj is troll pro Conor poster on here!? Would be hilarious if he was one of the guys writing "Conor bless" in signatureLebron sipping hard on that Conor-aid. Didn't know he brought into the hype too
It's always crazy when you see casual fans enamored with a fighter and the hype behind them. The hardcore fans as a whole never fully bought into the hype of Ronda and Conor but it seems everyday casual fans really did.
McGregor is a skilled fighter but he was never the best in the sport and is a long ways away from being an all time great. Yet Lebron is talking about him like he's Anderson Silva or something lol.
I think he's talking about him as if he's a champion (he is still holding Aldo's belt), who is determined to move forward and learn from his mistakes. Everything he said is true whether Conor is the god he believes he is, or if he had never made it to the UFC and only been the champion of his second tier org.
And he was asked about Conor.Yeah but that is true for Holly Holm, Chris Weidman, Cain Velasquez, TJ Dillashaw, and others. Yet he's talking about Conor. Why? Partly because of Conor's popularity but also the perception that he is an all time great historic fighter. Remember he was posting McGregor quotes before the fight.
And he was asked about Conor.
I value the opinion of Sherdog haters more, personally.
it kind of bugs me i found sherdog before any other mma forum. Every other forum puts sherdog down so bad but im not sure i can swap to the UG or another place. its like being in bellator and hearing about the ufc contracts before reebok
Exactly. They asked him about Conor because they perceive Conor as this uniquely great fighter. And Lebron actually knew who Conor was and was able to talk at length about him. Because he views him also as a uniquely great fighter and champion.
If they had asked him about Luke Rockhold he would have said "who?". Yet Rockhold is every bit of the champion that Conor is.
