    Possibly the last Ariel interview with the “old” Conor , before he made his huge paycheck and still seems humble, he was always brash and confident but there’s a stark difference to how he is most times now, could be age, the money, the damage , the losses, drugs/alcohol, but miss this guy

    There is a significant thing Ariel said at the end. "I know you don´t have to do this". This is characteristic for Conor. He knows that Ariel was there from day one and he did not forget him on the top of his game. Every TV Channel would wish themselves an Interview like this, but he gave it to the (compared to them) the small TH-cam guy. Hats off.

I admittedly jumped ship from a casual MMA fan who liked Jose Aldo, to a hardcore MMA fan who absolutely loves Conor McGregor.

He simply isn't the same fighter he once was and you can tell, especially if you followed him earlier in his career. Make no mistake, Conor is getting an OLD Floyd. Go watch the Floyd Mayweather Vs Arturo Gatti fight to see a prime Mayweather.

    Conor is an example of stoicism, success and for many things he should be a role model. I remember when I wasn't watching UFC that much and I stumbled on one of his fights (it was the early fights he made at the UFC, way before his ascension to this success) and I remember I wanted to find more matches with him as I spotted he moved differently and I knew he was going to go a long way... This video proves how a winning mindset should be.

      Floyd is trying to build a picture that he is the champion of the movement that is going on in America. In doing so, he can basically do anything he wants and still win. If he lost, everyone will make it about race. If he won, everyone would say that FINALLY black people have lost 0.0000001% of their oppression with this victory! Utterly ridiculous. You see it everyday on tv, race baiting does numbers. I hope Mcgregor wins so I can see mayweather attempt to read the speech he never practiced because he thought he wouldn't need to.

  • @jodyjones4928
    @jodyjones4928 6 ปีที่แล้ว +6

    Actually really like the way McGregor has stuck with Ariel for his interviews especially after showtime axed him. Cos he remembers Ariel was one of his first journalists to give him his due and had him on before even signed with UFC. Connor respects those who stuck by him. He could've picked a big mainstream journalist or talk show but he didn't. This speaks volumes about his loyalty to everyone that was loyal to him. And Pauly, who I actually liked has been shown for what he is. Another bitter fighter. 👊👊🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🐐👌🏻

  • @frankfrank2637

    Ariel really gets a different side of Conor out when he interviews him,
