...yet you can't go a day on here without seeing several Conor threads pop up.
As I'm making this thread, out of the 30 threads displayed on the first page, 5 of them mention Conor in the title. In the vast majority of the rest, Conor is mentioned at least once.
Every time he Tweets, it makes news. Every time someone mentions his name, it makes news.
If Dana announced Khabib vs Conor 2 tomorrow, no one would be shocked. If Dana announced Holloway vs Conor for the FW title, or Conor vs Uzman/Colby for the WW title, no one would be shocked. He could literally come back tomorrow and challenge for one of three world titles if he wanted to.
You take all that into consideration... and still, everyday, Conor haters are on here talking about how he's irrelevant, how the sport has passed him by, how so-and-so is a bigger draw, yadda yadda.
Like it or not, Conor is still the straw that stirs the drink.
