One of the biggest misconceptions ever.
Brock had the sasa hype train as Conor. Fight a few people he could run over. Fight a competent fighter that can do it all he crumbles. Funny only after he gets steam rolled by Cain was it a problem before that he was the baddest man on the planet. Fact of the matter is he had a easy road to the title like McGregor and his luck ran out once he fought Cain and everyone else he couldn't take down.
He was scared to death of hunt regardless if he won or not and still reacted the sans way he always did to pressure and punches. Taking bad shots for takedowns and does nothing on the feet but back up and throw the occasional punch or kick that second round Brock was close to throwing in the towel he was so scared. All that and he was on his monkey juice .
