Why are we obsessed with Conor McGregor

[clownin]

Conor this, Conor that.. Conor is the most talked fighter in MMA again.

He made himself relevant (again) by getting KTFO'd.

Remarkable!

Not even Fedor or Silva can match the obsession with this Irish man

He made himself like a WWE heel and could really sell the part.

He's still popular but not really respected anymore, most people are laughing at him like most washed up fighters who talked a lot.

You probably won't hear much about him in the next couple years. Seems like the end of the line now for real.

Because he is polarizing and dividing. His fans are in love with him, and everyone else is annoyed by him. No matter what, when he fights, we all care.

Because he is in fact the biggest star MMA has ever seen. So, when Conor does fight it is a big deal. A very big deal.

And probably because his last fight was literally just one night ago.

Because when a white guy is a braggadocious jerk he's just confident and ultra competitive, using mind games to get an advantage. When it isn't a white guy, he's viewed as just a self absorbed jerk period.

Because he reminds lot of the folks here of the guy that stole their girlfriends.

Yeah, that guy Michael Jordan isn’t viewed as the icon of competitiveness and confidence

Conor has now been beaten by all style matchups.

Some take inspiration and learn
Others are jealous and hate.
