Its been painful reading the idiot comments from conor fans (i.e people most likely under 18) in this forum in the last 24h.
They will do anything to try and defend their idol and one of the most mentioned defenses is that "he is a great promoter, all the bad things he does are only to create hype for fights"
So lets have a look into that:
1) Conor attacks two refs during a bellator event. Mike Goddard and some other no name guy
What was he trying to promote here? NOTHING... he was just acting like an idiot thinking he can do anything
2)Gets into a bar fight with someone related to the irish mob:

Then makes fun of it on instagram:
What fight is he promoting here? Again he got into a fight outside of the cage, which was not supposed to be in the news. Nobody even has pictures or video from the event... even though he has a website fully dedicated to covering these things for him (maclife)
3)Cheats on his faithful wife multiple times and embarasses her in public with a newborn at home:
YAY date night!!! So cool!!! Right?
Pffff... again, what fight is he promoting here?
4) Glorifying drug lords and cocaine addiction rumors
"I am the cartel"
El Chapo is a killer and a criminal. Yet conor thinks its cool being associated with the drug dealer lifestyle.
There arent any pictures to prove his cocaine habits, but its been mentioned everywhere. Even dana white suggests and hints at this in his post conor craze media scrum yesterday. Quite frankly i dont even care about this, but Jon Jones gets a ridiculous amount of shit around here because of it, so here it is.
The same people that applaude this shit are the ones that demonize Jon Jones for being high when he crashed his car. Its really the utter shake my head hypocrisy. His drug habits can eventually lead him to do something as stupid as jones did or worse.
What fight is he trying to promote by using and glorifying drug culture?
5) Racial Remarks:
"Dance for me boy",
"Im half black from the bottom",
"Here is a little something for my black female fans(while making thrust motions)"
This has been overblown. I dont think he is full blown racist. But it is distasteful to say the least.
If you think he did this to get black people to hate him so they would buy the PPV to watch him lose you are an idiot.
There is no argument in the world that justifies insulting an entire race of people in exchange for a small increase in PPV numbers. In the long run this is absolutely counter productive.
You cant be known as a racist and get endorsements and sponsoships and also black people to buy your products/inflate your social media numbers, etc...
Its just a stupid tactic. It has nothing to do with promoting the fight, but actually his own thoughts and lack of regard for others.
TL;DR:
Basically he is just an entitled brat, with the mentality of a 12 year old. And you morons keep buying into his shit and trying to spin things around like what he does is some kind of mastermind chess move, when in reality its just stupid behaviour that gets glorifyed by even bigger idiots.
Then you people come here and crucify the true GOAT for the same reasons you love this piece of shit
