I don't think Conor's behavior is a persona anymore. How great of an actor you have to be to keep a persona when your leg just snapped horribly and you are in incredible pain? I mean if Conor was playing in the post fight interview, he has to be the greatest actor ever. But I think that's his real self now. A bitter man who believed his hype and can't lose.
I agree with this. He might have been a genuine, humble guy earlier in life but his ego has grown to all time proportions, right up there with the most powerful dictators of all time.
Losses and out of ring problems gave him a phony humble persona but his true personality came back out when he realized he was beaten again and would never again get a sniff of the LW title.
