Bro it’s the same with me and Jon Jones, he just keeps loosing and coming back loosing and coming back it’s incredible his ability to recover from al l
I disagree I think the one who keeps wining is the point of the game. If I were given a choice of only wining or losing and coming would definitely be winning all the time.
mohammed almani it’s a grey area for me, obviously if you could win everything then that’s the peak, but at least Conor wins when he comes back after a loss, once her or anyone else loses after the comeback and starts to lose more than they win that’s when it’s like eeeehhh 👀
They are literally the fighting Irish. Conor has single handedly enhanced Irish pride ten-fold globally. In America, where the Irish are prominent and have immense history, it shows. Irish pride is unlike any other. And Conor embodies large parts of their pride such is fighting, drinking, partying, talking shit -- all while being the best at his profession.
Conor didn't enhance Irish pride. Irish pride has always been and will always be massive and eternal. Irish people weren't less proud before Conor nor will they be after he retires. Didn't increase anything tenfold, he just became a MMA fighter to rally around for the Irish, so he sort of became a conduit of already existing Irish pride.
@@TheTaterTotP80 To say he hasnt increased their pride is you cumming in my coffee and calling it creamora. Just by an Irish man breaking records and inspiring Irish kids on such a global level enhances Irish pride. Of course the Irish were always prideful. But Conor has brought this mystical Irish takeover quality. He has Irish people uniting to embrace their culture in arenas and cities they nornally wouldnt have. He is to Ireland what Trump is to a conservative. A voice, a shining beacon and a representative of millions.
Keith Witt what do you mean he didn't mean anything? He is insinuating that connors conquer of the UFC resonates in the Irish people as their want to conquer the powers that oppressed them; Conquering anything at this point that gives their country validity in a global scale
coco nut You do understand that 4 million Irish people died/left the country during the famine because the British took our crops? We were fucked under British ruling. Best thing we ever did was to become independent.
I understand that Russel probably didn't mean to use the word 'myth' to imply that the English oppression of Ireland is fictional , but I want to point out to those who mightn't know that Ireland was savaging ruled by the English for hundreds of years and that is still extremely fresh in the minds of many Irish people , including myself
True but we have to Remember we invaded them first when they were still Saxons and even took over small parts like Wales and even parts of Scotland while the picts were still there Uk and Ireland both have their faults these past 800 or so years England was just much more cruel
The Irish, we follow our own blood. Similar to how the Icelandic folk follow and support their own. We'll travel in droves to see a fellow Irish man fight, compete whatever the case may be. I'm not a huge Russel Brand fan but he's almost certainly correct about our psyche of being oppressed. A psyche where we've always felt we were the underdog. He's bang on the money when he mentioned conor capturing a particular mood in our country during his rise. We had experienced the hardest recession in human history. I remember most of my mates father's being made redundant and other friends losing homes from 2007 right through to 2013. Even two lads from my school lost their dads to suicide things got so bad. Conor was another lad from a lower middle class family chasing a dream during this time. We saw our own push for greatness and we were subsequently uplifted by his performances. I had always been an Iceman fan and finally took up mma when I saw Conor perform in cage warriors having played rugby since I was 6 years old. He grew up a 2-3 miles from where I live so to me he was just another lad from around the corner but with an exceptional story to be told. People who write malicious or hateful things on the Internet about Conor ultimately are the minority. The millions of views he gets across all social media platforms outweighs the spiteful nonsense that goes on behind the big picture. He couldn't care less what you say about him as long as you're talking about him. Undoubtedly he's a polarising figure. Last year I started watching the NBA and I saw the same trend around LeBron James and Stephen Curry. You can see it on gaming channels as well. I'm no psychologist so I'm not going to breakdown why people hate Conor but they are no different to the rest of the haters in other sports/disciplines, more people are inspired by him than those who wish to bash his character and that's just a fact and you aren't 'woke' if you believe otherwise. You're entitled to discredit his achievements but you're just a drop in the ocean.
That's not what he meant by myth. He meant "myth" as in legendary, mythical qualities. Conor personifies the spirit of the "Fighting Irish", and that image takes the form of an Irishman "standing up" to British oppression.
Hey Russell ''the myth of the Irish people as being oppressed by British colonialism'' is not a myth, it was a fact for 800 years and its still not over. Where's that cork when you need it.
if the majority of northern ireland wanted to join the republic a democratic vote would be held and they would be allowed to but the majority dont and the majority of the south dont want the responsibility of the north either but keep being a professional victim well done!
@@jonnfury6620 the guy is definitely more knowledgeable then I am. A word smith, but saying so much to say so little at times is a bit draining. His questions at times are longer then the answers he receives.
Myth has two meanings and the context of this was that Russell did not mean Irish oppression was a falsehood, but that it resonates in us like a legend, or it's part of our lore.
brownsey1 I dunno man, it's a dangerous thing to say, that the oppression was a falsehood, it's hard to digest as an Irish man, especially when they'res still Orange Men marching up in the North.
Robert Gray we’re not blaming you, or your son but you have to understand and learn about Britain’s crimes , not just against us Irish, but a good amount of countries in Africa Asia and South America. Especially when we’ve still got orange men celebrating catholic slaughters up north.
It's so cool how celebrities look up to McGregor, he is truly their celebrity, they line up at locker room after a loss , just to meet him , fucking amazing
Conor loses 2 fights, one wasn't even a mma fight. and he gets all this hate, I don't understand it, those loses shouldn't overshadow all of his greatness, because he has done great things and you cannot deny it, Conor will just jump back up and keep fighting
Off the top of my memory, Conor has something like 4 loses. 1 joe duffy 1 nate diaz 1 floyd mayweather 1 khabib nurmagomedov Still one of the absolute greatest fighters the UFC has known. The details are in the stat numbers.
Conor is such a bad ass fighter but What russell says at the very end people will never be able to comprehend and will just move past it without truly thinking about it but it is absolutely masterful how he puts all that into perspective and the way he's able to speak about it I couldn't put it into words like he just did I really believe if we lived in a world like he just explained some very magical things would happen
Joe Rogan mentioned the captivity that mcgregor bestowed upon not only people around the world but his people. I remember watching these events play out years ago and Mcgregor truly was a somewhat of patriarch figure for the Irish people for those 4 years I mean it was truly unbelievable and breathtaking.
I love Russel Brand but it was no myth. Oppressed and nearly genocidly wiped out in the Famine . There was still food in Ireland but was forced to be exported by Britain.
Hmmm...I understand McGregor is being fast tracked and hyped by the UFC. But having watched his old fights I do think people are being too quick to label him as overrrated. If he still had the same ability, but was not a global star, I think everyone would have more appreciation for his skills.
What makes Rogan amazing, is that, no where else is the world is there a place to freely celebrate men. Especially on the internet. I love Joe and will continue to watch his story unfold. To me, he is the mecca of MMA and combat sports.
Too For Won Tell me please just briefly... Is there something about the phenomena of his question that is unique? What is happening? What has happened to it? What does it mean? What does it mean here? What is happening to it after the podcasts? What is it an example of? Is it a sort of outlier, pioneer? How it will be regarded? What will it represent?

The answer is a quot from the gladiator movie. "I wasnt the best because I killed quickly, I was the best because the crowd loved me". Conor is the best coz the crowd loves him. Plus the dominant way he beats his opponents. He has NEVER had a boring fight. Win, lose or draw
I’m not the most intelligent person but I can follow Russels dialogue. He has a large vocabulary, which as a hiphop fan is always amazing and keeps your brain active
How is everyone misunderstanding his use of the word "myth" so much in these comments? He used the same word talking about Mcgregor: do people think he implied Conor Mcgregor isn't real? He was talking about how Ireland can be romanticised and idealised and that oppression is a significant part of it.
That's not what he meant by myth. He meant "myth" as in legendary, mythical qualities. Conor personifies the spirit of the "Fighting Irish", and that image takes the form of an Irishman "standing up" to British oppression.
Floyds greatness shone brighter...he was 40yrs old, only trained around three weeks cos he injured his hands and couldn't spar for a month b4 the fight, he was retired 2 yrs inactive, and taking on a guy 170 pounds on the day, 20 pounds heavier than him, taller and longer guy who was 11 yrs younger in his prime, and supposed to be this ufc KO artists.....Floyd toyed with him. Conor did well in round 1 but he hardly had Floyd in any danger. People watching rd 2 and 3 more closely can see it wasn't close and in fact Floyd won those rds too
That walk that Conor does where he throws his arms back is not just to stay loose its the principle to his kinetic chain and he's just firing it up before the fight letting his body know its go time. Anyone that understands this knows the true essence of martial arts.
He said himself that he saw a cartoon character walking in that way AFTER winning a fight, and he thought it just looked badass, with which I agree. You're looking so deep that you don't recognize the surface.
The "walk" is all about achieving a state of relaxation. It's not about peacocking or anything like that. It's getting your body ready to be explosive. Smooth is FAST!
What Conor did for UFC is unparalleled and people should respect that. He will become a billionaire in coming years but what's most important is he was the greatest fight entertainer ever lived.
Home boy should have more substance for how many words are pouring out of his mouth. Reminds me of those guys who are waiting for you to finish so they can talk some more.
Conor McGregor - ( In UFC 9-1, 7 KO's, 2 Dec), Defeated every man in he ever faced in UFC. Became 2 Div's Champion in UFC defeating the likes of Eddie Alvarez, Jose Aldo, Max Holloway, Nate Diaz, Chad Mendes. Faced the Boxing GOAT and went 10 rounds with him in 1st pro fight. He brought in more eyes to our sport = more money for our fighters. His fights are always entertaining win or lose. He is a huge Inspiration for people all around the world.
He is a bit of a unicorn after all lol got finished by Nate Diaz and Floyd Mayweather maybe when they talk about his greatness they are referring to his ability to talk rather than his fighting ability and cardio
Thank You Its easy to forget he had a 15 fight win streak before Nate finished him. His fighting skill is unquestionable. He just got gassed with Mayweather and Diaz
Irish America even more so than Ireland has been huge to mcgregors success .. the guts of 40 million people who have been waiting for an Irishman to come along in combat sports for a long time .. the fighting Irish and all that
That's not what he meant by myth. He meant "myth" as in legendary, mythical qualities. Conor personifies the spirit of the "Fighting Irish", and that image takes the form of an Irishman "standing up" to British oppression.
Mcgregory didn't win shit against mayweather. Mayweather let him tire himself before beating him. The man was 40 years old, retired, barely trained for the fight. It was a circus money fight. Mayweather was going 50%. Imagine a 29 year old mayweather going 100%.
Jesus D Mac that is a fucking stupid comment, worse than the one above! Bhaagul I reckon that a guy that retired 2 years ago is far more capable of competing at something than a guy who retired from the same thing 15 years ago! There is not one fighter in mma that would beat floyd in a boxing match and theres isnt one mma fighter tha woukd lose an mma match to him he'd make cm punk look good in an mma fight!
Would love to see an update 2022 podcast with you and Russel I feel like you both are on the same level these days on how you think and believe and could be very interesting for everything currently going on. Even if it’s you on his show or him on yours would love to see it.
No explanation. Allow me to retort. He didn't make money through traditional capitalistic means, but rather through his skill as a storyteller. This is a rarity, virtually no one else with the possible exception of other very successful stand-up comedians or authors have made vast sums of money through storytelling. Storytelling would be popular no matter what system of government we live under, capitalist or socialist - actually probably more so under a socialist system because the arts would be more valued. Was Russel Brand born into wealth? no. Did he get it through occupations linked to capitalism? no. Has he spoken out against having more money than he needs and politically tried to change the system unlike other rich people? yes. Has he used his time to help the underprivileged? yes. Has he used his money to help the underprivileged? unclear, but definitely partly.
CM's second Belt was a gift from White. The same offer was never made to the Ice Man, to GSP, to The Spider, Bones, etc. They all could have done the same easily. Because it was this unique offer to skip an entire division and face a much smaller opponent, it negates his actual standing. Rogan make some valid points, but McGregor is not the phenom that the UFC marketing make him out to be.
taylor kxng as a pure boxer he wasn't.. but he transcended boxing and that's what makes him amazing. Athletes who transcend their sport make them goat contenders

He is Irish. Thats his superpower. Ireland is the best country on the planet.
All day EVERYDAY 🇨🇮🇨🇮
Ireland is a shit hole, end of.
eyeroll lol
Imagine that as a essay question lol
Joe should have just said "yes"
that walk is from Vince mcmahon! theres a video conor doing that while singing to "No chance, thats what you got" (Vince's theme song)
peacocking? Its the 'McMahon Walk' ya goof.
That walk that Conor does where he throws his arms back is not just to stay loose its the principle to his kinetic chain and he's just firing it up before the fight letting his body know its go time. Anyone that understands this knows the true essence of martial arts.
He said himself that he saw a cartoon character walking in that way AFTER winning a fight, and he thought it just looked badass, with which I agree. You're looking so deep that you don't recognize the surface.
Oh, and as far as "anyone who understands" goes, I participated in two GG tournaments. Not a champion, but not a novice.
Russel brand is brilliant, i love how he thinks
The "walk" is all about achieving a state of relaxation. It's not about peacocking or anything like that. It's getting your body ready to be explosive. Smooth is FAST!
I'd say Brand is a little bit jealous Conor is also funnier than he is.
I love listening to these two speak, awesome stuff!
Why would you say Irish oppression by British colonialism is a myth Russell?
cause he is english
I think he meant more like the 'story' or 'narrative'.
He obviously knows that oppression is true.
What Conor did for UFC is unparalleled and people should respect that. He will become a billionaire in coming years but what's most important is he was the greatest fight entertainer ever lived.
Home boy should have more substance for how many words are pouring out of his mouth. Reminds me of those guys who are waiting for you to finish so they can talk some more.
1996 G this
plenty of substance in what hes saying you dense tard
a b Not really, he just says the same thing in many different ways.
well he bashed consumerism...very original
Check out his podcast and read his books before you judge him. He's an extremely intelligent person with some very interesting ideas.
Conor said it's called the Billionaire Strut and he borrowed it from Vince McMann.
I understand what Rusell is saying & I'm high af so it trip me out bad 😂
CXMRCX feelin ya bro same
Conor McGregor - ( In UFC 9-1, 7 KO's, 2 Dec), Defeated every man in he ever faced in UFC.
Became 2 Div's Champion in UFC defeating the likes of Eddie Alvarez, Jose Aldo, Max Holloway, Nate Diaz, Chad Mendes.
Faced the Boxing GOAT and went 10 rounds with him in 1st pro fight.
He brought in more eyes to our sport = more money for our fighters.
His fights are always entertaining win or lose.
He is a huge Inspiration for people all around the world.
LOL...Rogan doing the same shit he did to Ronda.... "Unique isnt a strong enough word?"... yeah like that mythical creature bullshit ?
He is a bit of a unicorn after all lol got finished by Nate Diaz and Floyd Mayweather maybe when they talk about his greatness they are referring to his ability to talk rather than his fighting ability and cardio
Thank You Its easy to forget he had a 15 fight win streak before Nate finished him. His fighting skill is unquestionable. He just got gassed with Mayweather and Diaz
Oil mercer nah'. bro
Irish America even more so than Ireland has been huge to mcgregors success .. the guts of 40 million people who have been waiting for an Irishman to come along in combat sports for a long time .. the fighting Irish and all that
jesus why is everyone hating lmao
Always got time to hear joe elaborate on anything especially mma he knows his stuff !
Where's the "freak bitches"? You let people complain and took it away? Well I'm complaining that I liked it!
NathanFree84 for real
NathanFree84 This isn't Joe's channel that's why.
NathanFree84 Dumbass it's not his channel stop complaining
NathanFree84 Lol, I know huh?
5:57 VanGogh died poor as a dog and everybody hated his paintings, just for the record :P. But we get your point Russell.
👍
No one wants to see McGregor x Diaz III. We want to see McGregor defending his lightweight belt!
McGregor will never beat Khabib but Khabib will
Never transcend the sport as Conor has
haha, the "myth" of being oppressed by Birtish colonialism?...
That's not what he meant by myth. He meant "myth" as in legendary, mythical qualities. Conor personifies the spirit of the "Fighting Irish", and that image takes the form of an Irishman "standing up" to British oppression.
Yo that question went hard bruh.
Jor "Aiiireland" Rogan
dude Russell towards the end, fuckin preach it brother!
Mcgregory didn't win shit against mayweather. Mayweather let him tire himself before beating him. The man was 40 years old, retired, barely trained for the fight. It was a circus money fight. Mayweather was going 50%. Imagine a 29 year old mayweather going 100%.
Baghuul Biased ref saved Floyd's ass multiple times. And who knows how it would have ended with that early stoppage.
Jesus D Mac that is a fucking stupid comment, worse than the one above! Bhaagul I reckon that a guy that retired 2 years ago is far more capable of competing at something than a guy who retired from the same thing 15 years ago! There is not one fighter in mma that would beat floyd in a boxing match and theres isnt one mma fighter tha woukd lose an mma match to him he'd make cm punk look good in an mma fight!
bel6891 I know what I saw u little bitch 🤣
We aren't talking about mma, this is boxing! You know, the sport conor said hed beat floyd in.
Baghuul Conor was robbed and u know it.
Would love to see an update 2022 podcast with you and Russel I feel like you both are on the same level these days on how you think and believe and could be very interesting for everything currently going on. Even if it’s you on his show or him on yours would love to see it.
i strongly agree was about to type this myself untill i stumbled upon you comment well said
Brand is a rich guy who loves socialism yet his success has been made through capitalism. Hes a muppet!
that's dumb.
Its very true....he is a perfect example of a champagne socialist.....
Explain
No explanation.
Allow me to retort. He didn't make money through traditional capitalistic means, but rather through his skill as a storyteller. This is a rarity, virtually no one else with the possible exception of other very successful stand-up comedians or authors have made vast sums of money through storytelling. Storytelling would be popular no matter what system of government we live under, capitalist or socialist - actually probably more so under a socialist system because the arts would be more valued. Was Russel Brand born into wealth? no. Did he get it through occupations linked to capitalism? no. Has he spoken out against having more money than he needs and politically tried to change the system unlike other rich people? yes. Has he used his time to help the underprivileged? yes. Has he used his money to help the underprivileged? unclear, but definitely partly.
He made most of his money through film!
CM's second Belt was a gift from White. The same offer was never made to the Ice Man, to GSP, to The Spider, Bones, etc. They all could have done the same easily. Because it was this unique offer to skip an entire division and face a much smaller opponent, it negates his actual standing. Rogan make some valid points, but McGregor is not the phenom that the UFC marketing make him out to be.
I'm skeptical of the validity of some of Conor's fights, so I can't fuck with conversations like this anymore.
Following Excitement yup. Especially him calling out Nate Diaz recently. He’s not much of a competitor
validity .. nice word
Following Excitement why don't ya think they're valid?
Do you mean the fights themselves or the opponents?
Don't then?
The Vince McMahon walk
Ali was the GOAT idgaf what anyone has to say
taylor kxng as a pure boxer he wasn't.. but he transcended boxing and that's what makes him amazing. Athletes who transcend their sport make them goat contenders
56 wins, 5 losses, 37 knockouts. wtf are you talking about again?
438 wins ,1 loss. Vasyl lomachenko.
Class:what is the full form of UFC?
Exam: 0:01 - 0:40
His myth of Ireland being colonised????
I am brazilian and I fuckin love this irish fucker. What he did to Aldo was CRAZY SHIT. If you love MMA like I do, you gotta love him too
Conor>>> God,if God exists.
Kenshiro V Thanks for the compliment.
Kenshiro V Awww! thanks.
Well cocaine is one hell of a drug😂😂😂
