Conor's coaches are looking at him like he has no idea what he's talking about anymore.
Yea and no one wants to tell or he gets pissed off, but that’s what he really needs to hear
He really doesn't. He has no game
@@lokivatoConor is the fight game. He single handledly saved the UFC and Dana from bankruptcy. He will save them again too if he comes back and reclaim his titles .
$$$
@dagothodros641C onnor didn't save the UFC. He just made Dana tons more money. The UFC was just fine where it was. Connor just gave it a boost in ratings. He attracted all the retards that watch WWE. There's nothing to save now. MMA is just going to keep growing. They just have to worry about ONE dipping into the US market. MMA is still relatively small. Did you see that video of Pereira being followed by Walmart security? Nobody there even knew who he was. MMA is still in it's infancy and thos is why the pay is still low compared to other pro sports. MMA is to boxing what hockey is to soccer. Sure it's big, but...
I like how that dude dropped his bag so Connor could shadow box his face easier. Nice guy
Lol
Punching bags don't hold bags.
@@DjMrGrimM 😂😂😂
What a guy, right!
Also it’s the mindset of always working, improving, preparing ourselves. I assume people like this is what makes Connor so good! I could benefit from a guy like this around me!
he dropped it so he can better emulate a fighters stance for Conor to demonstrate his point. it’s truly amazing as it is pat.hetic how you haters are able to turn every single situation into an insult against him. reeks of jealousy
Weird, tense atmosphere in the McGregor camp. Everyone just thinking, ‘man, this guy has lost it’
The tall guy looked like he was genuinely laughing at him, they absolutely know that Conor is washed up at this point.
And noone wants to be frank with him, he is too rich and has only yes men around him, hes done. 100 fights with old men at bars.
They have a doctor follow him around now. Says everything
they want to say something but they're not aloud, I'm surprised he lets them look him in the eyes, haha
nah his offensive striking is still world class its just his takedown defense and grappling and his kick defense which needs work but i think Chandler will be in trouble if he doesnt get him down
There's a strange energy over his entourage sometimes. As if they also secretly believe Conor has become a basket case.
They are definitely uncomfortable standing there.
Also, how tall are they if Conor towers over the two?
The start of this clip was hard to watch. The way those 2 guys look over at him and don't respond.
@@nyoro8628 yeh
The “yes men” gang. That oul fella with the green hoodie is hoping he gets a Rolex outta this
@@nyoro8628I wasn't imagining things then, cheers 👍
Hes taking the 'cant lose if i cant fight' strategy.
😂😂😂.. He my guy too but this is exactly the strategy that is playing out lol..
@@RtotheA I don't hate him, just disappointed in his ufc career since the boxing. There's no weight to his fights other than conor hype now. Would love to see him active and busy but it's just not him now. I don't care for wins or loses, I just want to watch good fights that mean something ✌️
He already can't breath while throwing those punches😂😂
accurate af tho
He not in the best condition 😂 Training camp hasn’t started yet lol
Coke and 💉💉
@@gregoreosRGV he was shadow punching a still target....
I’d love to watch him knock all 3 of y’all out at once lmao
That guy dropped the bag like he was ready to give conor the business😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂😂he really did
i didnt look at it that way at first. now that i am... hahahahahahaha
he was like "this one's for all the old men out there!" but then he started thinking about the money and escorts and sunshine he's been enjoying while in Vegas
The doc was looking at Conor like ye this guy is on his way out🤣🤣
He actually looks like he’s openly laughing at the guy 😂, probably can’t believe he’s being paid to hang out with this lunatic
@@Insertnamehere287 don't get me wrong I know he's only trying to explain something but he looks like he walked out of a pub to get some fresh air and he's showing the guy who's having a smoke how to fight
LOL nah the Doc is just counting all the $ he's going to get when Conor's heart finally says no more steroids, test, and coke. LOL. Going to be quite the payday for someone.
Expect Conor to sue the dealer afterwards.... How could I have known what I was ingesting was coke, I was sure it was energy flour lol
Conor gassed out just talking about fighting hahaha
Its actually really tough to talk while demonstrating
Lmaooo
@@sideeggunnecessaryL
The man is little more than an Alcoholic now. He won't admit it till someone close to him is brave enough to tell him to his face.
@@sideeggunnecessary we throw jokes out here, loosen up champ
Another great Conor on coke segment. 😂
The funniest thing is the UFC think these clips make him look good 😂 😂
Yeah he's done. He's like one of those 45 year old talking about how he was in highschool
💯
4 touchdowns in one game
Conor looks exhausted 😂shadow boxing
so would u if u had the will power to do it in the first place🤣
@@jcbsalexyahooso would u? The point still stands 😂
@@jcbsalexyahoomateys not on TH-cam saying he's the best and will beat everyone up 💀
@@jcbsalexyahoo a pro fighter shouldn't get tired throwing 3 punches.
@@1D.JFanMma 🤣🤣🤣 youd pass out after a minute of straight shadow boxing kid sit down
They need to let Connor do blow between rounds of the fight
😂
They should make it unlimited rounds, in between conor gets proper 12 and coke and chandler gets pure tren and horse glue.
"usada approved"
@@kevinmurphy5878 😂😂
just yes men around him under his brand too scared to say anything
Planning to catch Chandler with precise, straight shots in between his wild punches is a legit good game plan, what would these "yes men" say no to in this context?
@@Fightconnoisseur96 well for one Chandler isn't gonna just stand in front of Conor and let him tee off like that lol two, it's like he isn't even taking into account Chandler's wrestling ability. It'll be easy for him to feint and shoot under those shots.
@NoahCanFB MF how you want him to just spill his entire game plan in detail in a video that's just over a minute. "So if he shoots I'm gonna do this! If he throws his right I'm gonna do that, if he throws his left I'm gonna do this, if he jumps off the cage and attempts a back flip kick I'm gonna do that!" 🤡🤡🤡
@NoahCanFB also did you see Chandler against Poirier? He took about 6-7 straight lefts in a row without moving, same punch, no change-up. He very much does sit there and let people tee off on him.
Is Conor just always wasted on this show? Or is he just frantic normally now? I don’t really understand? He seems the opposite of calm in basically every scene.
too much drugs will take a toll eventually even if you stop and we all know he aint gonna stop
Coke
he's zooted and on his way to the Andromeda Galaxy
@@Kankudai I mean, it was an honest question. Is he really on that in every scene? Feel like if he was using it that often he’d build a tolerance be calm. Who knows though. He definitely seems erratic on the show.
He's a retired, obscenely rich cokehead. I don't think he'll ever fight again, at least not any decent opponent lol.
They just won't be in the cage. They'll be in pubs and at clubs 😂
lol! >.
Conor giving off Uncle Rico vibes...
Uncle Rico w crisp af striking
Throwing steaks like a boss
Cant stfu he talks too much
Uncle Rico lived in a van. Conor lives on a Lamborghini that floats on water 😂
@@mitchellhedges711That’s not the point genius.
Yea because chandler will stand there not doing anything😅
“You think I’m just gonna stand here and let you kill me, Conor?”
Every time Chandler tried to trade shots with someone, he gets dropped. Conor is washed but that doesnt mean hes lost his boxing skills.
@@greymatter8817YESSSSSS! I was gonna say this!
“Im gonna have him pinned”
@@theoryan3227 LOL Conor's eyes gonna be pinned after all the pain meds he's gonna have to take after getting beat to smitherines by him. I'd rather watch Gaethje fight Conor though. Justin will play with his food a bit, he'll make Conor stay in there just long enough to take so much damage that he won't be able to even speak anymore. Justin make it so please! break his nose and maybe they can finally redo it and make it bearable lol
Bunch of yes men around this dude
It’s so pathetic bruh
They all just want his billions
u wouldn’t be any different bro
@@HighPixelLPafter the starstruck had worn off I wouldn't lower myself to underneath him or anyone just because they're a celebrity or rich. These guys he's been with for years have clearly gradually given up more room for his ego.
It was confirmed years ago when Kavanagh said what he said, or when in this episode McGregor interrupted his boxing coach coaching one of the prospects and gave different advice.
He gassed out just demonstrating 😂
MMA Guru would starch Conor
And afterwards does a Volk impression: "You had your chance, you were stubborn about it, you're DUN! It ends for you!"
Watching this show only made me realize even more what I already knw that Conor has an addiction problem and he's definitely not fighting Chandler anymore.
Seeing interviews of him during his early UFC run and comparing them to how he is now, it's like two different people. He's got this frantic, manic energy about him these days. He's definitely overly indulged in alcohol and other substances over the years.
29.06.. But youre right: i dont think either he will make much out of it. Time for the rehab. And thats not even meant in a bad way.
That man is drunk there 100%
If anyone is still drinking Connors kool-aid / have their fingers crossed for this fight, all you need to do is watch his previous TUF season compared to this one. Its scary how different he is in almost every aspect. For me tho, its the lack of the calm confidence thats the biggest tell tale. Also itll make you realize that the cocaine rumor unfortunately prob isn't overblown and at this point is a legitimate if not probable possibility.
Lol rumor??? Ask anyone who has done coke. The guy is LOADED.
He’s off his head man
He's 100% a drug addict at this point. Alcoholism and a cokehead aren't exactly the best combo. And that's ignoring the probable steroid usage as well
@@JIT-sz4tf “probable”
Where’s the translation tab?
Turn captions on for a good laugh.
His striking is a thing of beauty
Lmfao that's because he was mimicking Chandler's striking
@@gmr7494chandler is sloppy on the feet and very inefficient
“I hope for 100 fights “ yet won’t even come back for one and still thinks Dillon Danis is a legitimate training partner
Dillon Danis is a very good grappler. Elite. Just cuz people don’t like him doesn’t mean he isn’t Legit. There’s a reason nobody besides the greatest grappler in mma history has has sustained success against Conor on the ground. There’s a reason Conor lasted longer than anyone else with Khabib
@@hezilife3141 A) Conor did not last longer than everyone against Khabib.
B)Dillon Danis is not a elite grappler...maybe 10 years ago you could have made that argument...and even then it was not mma grappling...it's much different when people can punch you in the face.
@@TheButcher-w7z yes Conor did. He lasted 4 rounds and actually won 1 of those rounds. Only person who lasted longer is Raging Al becuase Khabib was trolling and trying to be flashy with his striking, and wasn’t actively hunting him, just cruised to a 50-45 Decision. That fight honestly should be wiped from everyone’s memory cuz it was barely a fight.
@@hezilife3141 you just said yes he did and then admitted that he didn't...which is it???
@@hezilife3141 Al lasted longer because his defense was better. period. Save that "trolling/flashy" nonsense for someone who who doesn't know any better...
1 win since Obama
Conor got stuck with a bunch of 30-plus year old prospects
Conor chose the 30yo prospects
@@lazyboned8435No he didn’t genius it was a coin flip
@@Pandemomium4Life he actually kicked prospects off the show for his own guys he vouches for... lol
@@Pandemomium4Life yes he did genius. It was a coin flip which he won... and he chose to take the prospects.
Better then stuck with a 30 odd year old hasbeen
His strategy is to avoid fighting, this way he won't lose.
Bold strategy Cotton, let's see how it works out! lol
@@lanceh2009 he has already won, he has everything he wants: money, alcohol, coke, steroids, rapes (allegedly) and whatnots
What are you talking about? He broke his leg. Of course it takes a long time to get back to fighting
he wishes for 100 fights but won't fight but 1 every 2 years
☝🏼 I don't have to watch the video to know exactly what Conor's strategy against Chandler is: to avoid joining the USADA testing pool at all costs! 😂
Conor is on his way out! Is weird watching him.
He’s been out since 2018
@@steviedub9370he’s been out since what joe bahama mama did to him
yeah and then that strategy will be used in 2024 cos he cant be in the usada pool🤦🏻♂️
He is off his chops there 100 percent. Phill is looking at him disgusted.
the Yes corner mans from connor, nobody is telling him no any more
this is a serious situation. he’s holding them hostage.
He seems permanently high on caffeine or something?
nah you're just one of those projecting bums who think you need drugs to be yourself haha
Then Conor refuses to enter USADA testing. He never wanted to fight Chandler so all of this is BS.
Ok
Old man was ready this time
“….and I’m reaping all the benefits”
Hopes for 100 more fights
Proceeds to not report to USADA
Man McGregor seemed out of breath doing 2 mins shadow boxing lol
Dude doesn’t have the same discipline. Don’t blame him.
Silk sheets
0:58 "that's the way It's gonna go"
... Ok 😂
He is giving me vibes of Fury after the Klitschko win. Anyway, he should do 100 fights and stay around for UFC 100000....
SAD thing is Conor doesn't realize or care that he initially made his rise & money in the UFC by 1. using his kicks to set up his KO punches and 2. his movement and "flow" state was elite when he was on his toes. He's pretty much stopped doing both in recent years. I dont see Conor reaching those heights again unless he gets back to his original style he used up until the Eddie fight.
He's a lightweight, former featherweight and now he's about 35 years old I think, it's a young man's style
Conor is done. Fan cucks need to accept it.
@@mistaschaub3280Wonderboy keeps up with a similar style at 40
@@aShamelessHighthe thing with wonder boy is he has a bigger frame with less muscle so he carry’s it easier than Conor who’s a smaller person with much bigger muscle
and his opponents were a lot more basic back then
now they're all better strikers than him, all this time off and all those other guys have been improving, I'd bet Justin Gaethje who used to be known as a Brawler is now a more technical striker than Conor, that's my opinion, specially with the last 2 years of Conor being off
So 3 yes-men and a leprechaun walk into a bar..
What did he just say 😂😂😂 I couldn't understand a word lol
All the comments are against Conor, acting like Conor couldn’t knock each of y’all out stone cold. This guy has done it all, all the way to a broken leg and still is comes back ready to fight. Conor is a gem, and y’all goofy’s are bums who will never have the pure strength of Conor’s mindset win or lose. If anything all the haters commenting are losers here. Cause if y’all went through all the pressure he’s faced y’all would crumble under pressure
I’m no expert, but I’m guessing Chandler wouldn’t just sit there and let him light him up.
Excellent advice by Conor if you're coked up and have drunk a bottle or whisky
I think he learned his lesson with Poirier. He put that dude out in the first round when they first thought he doesn’t have anymore.
If this isn’t coke rambling idk what is
Your uncle at the cook out after he’s had a couple too many drinks.
He can’t stay like that. His lead leg will get smashed, just like that Poirier fight.
His strategy is to not join the usada pool
Watching conner in highsc to now is just sad man he just doesnt want it like before hes delusional
He has become such a joke. Nobody except Tom Aspinall takes him that seriously anymore. I commented this on the UFC 264 presser, 'I used to laugh with McGregor, now I'm laughing at him'.
Notice how no one else even said a word they just let him ramble on…not good
Conor typically does the same combo and head movement in most of his fights. Let’s hope he levels up and change. If not he might get slept cold from chandler
He was *actually* out of breathe from this…
Connor is always been this way. People are just now seeing it.
I believe him...but then I thought.... doesn't Chandler NOT get tired, isn't his cardio and movement amazing??.....
Nah chandler definetly does slow down in fights
Noone in this conversation has any idea whats going on.
Not even conor
Conor, please win! ❤🙏 Really love the atmosphere and positivity when you win. You can do it, stay focused
I don’t know why in all these competitions the fighters do not try to do more blocking punches than they do , better blocking skills , like instead of raising there forearm up actually use it to block more , put the arm in motion instead of just raising it
Because it's 4oz gloves blocking doesn't work lol
@@ghagzor can u at least say they should do a better job with blocking or head movement ?
@@ghagzor it could be bare knuckles and they should still use more defense
@@ghagzor It does when using ur arms, not hands. Dustin Porier uses it all the time, Max said it was 'weird'. But it does leave you open to the body
Seem's poirier did more damage than we first thought mc'tapper delusional...
They look like random people who never seen him
At this point i think his mind doesn't know the difference between promoting a fight and actually being in a fight, wish him nothing but the best
Watchin Conor move is a treat every time. Glad he’s back healthy, hopefully he scraps here soon.
I hope that's sarcasm
@@Tyrannosaurus_5000 are you tryna discredit him orrrr?
When you surround yourself with yes men, you have to coach your "coaches"
Them poor guys, Conor would even talk alone to a wall showcasing his strategy
He’s out of breath from one minute
Conor’s coaches: We’re heading home. Catch you tomorrow.
Conor: I’m gonna have a 100 more fights and beat Chandler so bad. Here let me show you how I’ll do it.
Too many yes men!!
Brotherhood! I am all about this fight hype but do we really feel like this fight is actually going to happen? Thoughts 😂
Man gassed out in 40 seconds 🤣
He brought it all on the second he sold his soul
Conor Looks In Great Shape.. Im Going to Say Its going to be a tough Fight for Conor....
Conor is only fighting USADA
dude hasn't won a legitimate fight in over 6 years and would get wrecked by anyone in top 10 at lightweight/welterweight but keeps running his mouth...
Come on now, Connor is just disappointing the fans 😢
Dude better win man
They're all just like, "yeah," "yeah."
He got winded doing a demonstration.😂😂😂
Everyone around contemplating "success" after seeing what you become
He said bump bump bump and was breathing heavy. Just retire bro.
0:54 "I'm gonna get to that point" so u will😂
Yes he will. Haven't you seen the news. It's happening in June
Miles Deez nutss
If he at least said «5 more fights» he would’t seem completely delusional
He was heavy breathing from that first shadow boxing performance
Why is Conor always throwing his hands infront of people's faces.
Gassed after shadow boxing for 30 seconds eeesh
I’m sure his pissed his talking rubbish 😂
Whack
I love hearing conor talk fighting
Coke is a hella of a drug
what did he say???.......
yea man around him
He’s like… “Conor, I just want to get my lunch. Can ya f**k off”
Translator?
Conor has become a South Park character
