  • Without trash talk this sport is nothing. Some would say.
    Words like venom upon a blade, words that cut deep. Trash Talk is the game athletes play to draw eyes, to garner fame, To humiliate. The UFC has seen it's fair share of trash talk!
    But what happens when it goes wrong? What happens when words can not be rescinded. This video will explore the dark recess of fighters careers, A compilation in cinematic form of those who have been humbled, humiliated, and fallen short of their manifestations. And where best to start than Conors Proper 12 and cocaine infused fever dream that was his return from boxing.

      Colby does it to shit on his opponent. Ian does it to moralize on his opponent while being obnoxious. People can root for a bad guy but it's hard to root for a Karen.
      Also Ian's horrible in real life too, his moralizing attitude bleeds into real life when, as per his wife's blog, he holds open doors for people but expects to be thanked, and if he isn't he berates the witholder of gratitude for something he voluntarily did without request.

    Conor genuinely makes me nervous. Just based on the things he openly did in front of the world..... not taking action but highly highly emotionally reacting could end in true tragedy. Of course I really hope not but combine hundreds of millions, MASSIVE ego, cocaine/alcohol and more head trauma and something really awful could happen. I really hope he has people who are honest with him and he listens because you can only burn at both ends for so long before the inevitable crash that ALWAYS happens if you push too far too long. He's lost and it's sad to see.
