Why do Conor haters always bring up Mayweather match?

[Headkicktoleg]

It was an exhibition match that earn Conor more in 1 fight than any UFC fighter had ever earned in a career. UFC fighters compete in BJJ tournaments too. Why doesn't anyone make fun of them losing to Kron Gracie?

I like to bring up that he hasn’t defended a single title and hasn’t fought in the ufc in two years

I like to bring up that he hasn’t defended a single title and hasn’t fought in the ufc in over two years

I like to bring up a title has never affected my enjoyment of a fight and Conor fights are ALWAYS great

Why do Conor fans always bring up how much money he makes as if it has fuck-all to do with his ability to fight?

I brought it up because it explained why he would box Mayweather in an exhibition match

 

[Jordan3399]

Because he said he would dominate and did that rather than defend another UFC belt which he held up for a year. Then after all the talk he got embarrassed by an old Mayweather that barely trained giving him his first TKO win in a decade.

Then the McGregor fans try and argue how he won rounds when Mayweather was just playing with him, then finally they endlessly spam a gif of the one half decent shot Conor landed in the whole fight.

It's just laughable.

Porier, Khabib and Aldo would destroy him now.

Conor doesn’t fight though. He goes pub hopping every night in really tight clothes.

Probably because he hasn't fought in 50 years, ducking all the risky MMA fights. Fought against a tiny old retired boxer and got finished. What's not to love? It doesn't help that McGobblers bring him up in threads that have nothing to do with him, and make some of the dumbest fanboy threads Sherdog has ever seen.

 

[ANIM4L]

You just brought it up.

to answer your question...because that shit was the most ridiculous moment in combat sports history

Seems to be rather disconnected from your actual point, considering the subsequent notion of UFC fighters in BJJ losing and not being shit on for it.

I've mostly seen haters make threads about him

 

[Rav7n]

And another thread.....

 

[Kowboy On Sherdog]

The guy was champ-champ and made mega millions... but thinking it is something to hate on because of his mouth and actions outside the cage/ring...

???? Which means fuck all

His fans make the dumbest threads on Sherdog, and it isn't even close.

 

[gotBooched]

nobody really talks about Conor anymore

Not at all. He boxed Mayweather and lost. He also make a shitload of money from it and took very little damage. Seems like an all around win in my book. Now compare that to a fighter doing a bjj tournament and losing. He loses takes little damage, but makes zero money. That's a worse outcome, but people don't try to paint the picture that someone is shit for losing like that

That triggers none.

Conor made over $120,000,000 during those said two years.

He and Khabib are fighting by the end of the year, it is confirmed, both parties want the fight.. it is going to happen (unless Khabib pulls out with a weight cut or injury issue.)

It wasn’t an exhibition match.
