What drives Conor McGregor now?

Legacy , I wish he would have been in shape like this for the khabib fight he seems to be very focused and all about the training for this fight interesting to see what kind of performance he puts on against one of the top lightweights in the world
yes yes , you mean the Conor who had his best camp ever in preparation for Khabib but made pissweak excuses like his fans when he still fell short?
 
Himself obviously. If you´re on the wrong path in life, you are your own biggest enemy.
 
It was pretty obvious that Conor wasn't in his best shape. Will the results be different? Who knows? But it's a rematch I'm interested in seeing simply because Conor still did better than everyone else that Khabib fought. So a more focused and sober Conor could be an interesting match up. Khabib and his coaches still think that Conor is still the most dangerous match up for them. There is a reason why they think that, and they definitely know what they are talking about. So Conor's haters that are Khabib fans should pay attention to how they view Conor's skillset.

What the fuck are you talking about he was not in his best shape? Usual Conor would be completely gassed after that second round. Hell he looked SLOWER in the Cowboy fight than usual. Conor will ALWAYS have an excuse when he loses and you idiots eat it up. And if he can't get focused and sober fighting fucking Khabib for the belt, he is not mentally tough enough to ever beat Khabib. Thats a pathetic excuse

And how did Conor do better than Gleison Tibau against Khabib? Tibau arguably should have beaten Khabib. Or how did he even do better than Dustin? Dustin landed way better shots and sorta had Khabib in some trouble with the guillotine. Conor "won" a round where nothing happened and cheated non stop

Before the Khabib fight Conor and his fans were all "Best camp ever" "Best shape of his life and more prepared and ready than ever before". After the fight he was its "his foot hurt" "He was not in shape or focused" "he partied too much". Fuck off with that weak ass BS
 
More money.
If think 100m is enough to not wanna get more money then how come there're billionaires in our world??
 
What do you care. Whatcha him fight or dont. Noobs are so analytical.
 
Fame and money. I suppose. His actions going forward will clarify his intentions.
 
Money? fame? attention? legacy? adrenaline? pleasure? redemption?

What push him to go back in the octagon? he is filthy rich and few fighters can pretend to have a better legacy than him.

Khabib did everything well inside the octagon, filthy rich outside, healthy, young, allah love him, he retired. He can open any business now he will be rich forever if he don't fucked up.

I don't know if i would still fight in his position. How about you? What do you think?
He loves fighting.

Better than everybody else?

Better than Al that survived all 5 rounds? Better than Dustin that hit him good and had him in a tight choke? Better than Justin that was leg kicking the hell out of him? And lets not forget he cheated the hell out of that fight.

I don't blame Khabib coaches if they want another red panty night
 
Fighting is in his blood. His entire family name was banned by King Jameson at the time because they were too savage.

familiarity most likely
 
The feeling of winning in the Octagon
Money
 
He has his business on top of his fight purse that keeps replenishing his income. Most people that blow their money like that from sports don't have business or any other income coming in besides from sports. So it's not really an accurate way to assess their situations. Conor really doesn't even need to fight anymore, like others said it's for legacy. He could stop fighting and still be set for life with his money from his business alone. He was a fighter first before a businessman - he wants to go out on top.
Legacy? he got demolished by Khabib...he's going for 2nd prize here. What legacy is he going after? Most of the fighters duking out for the belt at LW were beaten by Khabib other than Kevin Lee, Tony and Charles O. You really think Proper12 is flying off the shelves? Nah...he's running out of money...
 
I Ihink it comes down to not wanting to waste his hard work, he thinks he is the best he's ever been, getting in the cage and proving it is his payoff now.

His ego will most likely play a part also.
 
It's past that now. His liquor is everywhere and people will buy it not even knowing who Conor McGregor is. He's doing a good job promoting it in every major combat sport event including all the recent major boxing fights. His business will run regardless if he's fighting or not. That's why it was a smart business move. His popularity and promotion during fights was for the initial push, but now it's running on it's own. You don't get into the whiskey business at the speed and rate his company did and just think it's going to lose it's placement if Conor stops fighting. It's global now. Plus they can always use it to sponsor/promote other active fighters, celebrities, or other sports stars in the future. So it doesn't just have to be tied to just Conor's fighting career. Just like all the other beer and liquor companies sponsor other celebs, sports stars, fighters, etc to promote their business.
Lol you make it sound like Proper12 is Budweiser now....Go to your local liquor store...Celebrities have liquor that bomb...same with cologne etc etc... these celebrities including Conor are backed by liquor manufacturers to bring their name in. Use their names and make the liquor after them for their popular name...as soon as their name fizzle, so is the contract...I hope you're not thinking Conor Owns the whole thing...because that's unlikely.
 
Can people fuck off with this shit. There are plenty of reasons to keep fighting and pushing him. What about being the best? Do you know how many athletes accomplished more than Conor and made way more money than Conor who stayed motivated and on top?
Agree but is this fight really for the best? It's like 2 mice are going to fight because the Cat is gone...
