The video argues he picked Cowboy over Gaethje to avoid rape allegations during pressers. Which sounds compelling at first - but at the same time he's saying he wants to fight multiple times this year and has been campaigning for the Khabib rematch, so that theory goes out the window.
Why would it be necessary to fight a nice guy opponent if he's going after his arch rival within a few months?
I also don't get the argument that he's non reactive in trash talking. Sure, he's got some ideas that he probably planned out (like "snake in the grass") but he's got tons of moments which seemed spontaneous like "who da fook is that guy" etc.
Yes but my point is,if he wanted to TRASH cowboy regardless of how cowboy felt about him or not,he would. He is bullshitting when he is saying he isnt trashing cowboy because cowboy is nice to him. He is coming across this way in a attempt to repair his image. Not because he is reacting to cowboy.
