These types of videos are by far my favorite don't get me wrong I really enjoy the round table and podcasts but these are so good I love these types of videos on The Kick Off aswell
How hindsight changes things. I remember watching your reaction video to the Conor vs Khabib press conference, you were laughing at his lines and called him "the most entertaining fooker in sports". Now after everything that has happened since, "oh he was too aggressive and dark because I think he KNEW he was going to get smashed"...
I remember too Jake, as a Khabib fan I disliked TG because of it. He has grown on me and I think has matured a lot over time I would like to think 🤞.
True geordie is the biggest bitching grown man I’ve ever seen. His videos are just him being negative and criticising everybody and contradicting himself, unless it’s Jake Paul.
That press conference was hilarious what are you on about?
Because it was a reaction to the press conference now looking back your analysing it just playing devil's advocate can see your point but definitely think when your watching it now your looking at it from a different perspective
It was great for the behind the scenes sections for his earlier fights but honestly, I was surprised how brief it was in covering his road back from the leg break. I thought that would be the crux of the documentary, not the epilogue.
i agree
Even Conor himself agrees with you
Because majority of the time spent post leg break was taking steroids 💉 while on a yacht in Spain to avoid USADA Lol
To make it worse assaulting a woman he invited on the yacht to the point she had to jump out into the Mediterranean Sea to stay alive.
Yeah I doubt he’d want to have that period of time on film 😂
The documentary was bland and basically an advert for the more positive side of McG. ! BTW, Conor was 100% coked - up at quite a few of his pressers but he was such a big star he was allowed to get away with the twitching/ nose -sniffing/ off his nut BS..!!
@@beejj6190 Allowed to get away? What a stupid comment, he was mocked like countless other stars who have also been coked up. This is nothing new....
I really liked the doc, but I totally agree with you on where the problems lie. As for Chandler I feel that it is the most winnable fight that Conor could’ve chose from the top 5 at lightweight. Chandler is very hittable and the sort of fighter he is was McGregor’s bread and butter. We’ll just have to see what he’s like post break
If conor still has his precision and timing, then yeah because Chandler just moves forward, takes the hits...but I don't think uts the most winnable...Chandler has been way more active, fighting top guys since his debut, and even ko'd Tony. When was the last time you've seen that? Yes Tony has been on a downward spiraling losing streak, but still...I can't think of a time he was knocked out THAT bad....regardless,we all know we're going to watch this season of TUF and it's not because of chandler...it doesn't matter if conor isn't the same conor...we're still going to tune in and watch whatever he does....
@@rainman42 a finished Tony Ferguson dropped Chandler though, whether or not McGregor comes back as good as he was, he will still defo have an advantage in the striking department
Chandler will smash Conor to bits
Would like to see a great McGregor performance but I think Chandler demolishes him.
@@fumurph chandler has all the tools to beat McGregor, so naturally he’ll fight like a moron and give McGregor every chance to win
A very good documentary that just drives home how far McGregor has strayed from his best version as a fighter and person.
I liked the documentary but I wish they had more 1 on 1 interviews with McGregor and less throwbacks to an old McGregor which are constant throughout
I remember when this guy was Conors biggest ball gobler on the Internet..
Big up Brian for making it to the documentary
It's crazy that Geordie was basically the representative of the voice of the haters and naysayers
Because he is, it showed who he is as a critic youtuber and without the majority of the viewers which mainly consist of armchair critics that need feeding shows on a scale of the bigger picture its stands as just a critic of a man who does what???. Its literally this guys success in life and its fair enough for him but his opinion is not even 50% valued or true to the big boys because like this guys youtube most of the world think the same as him which is why most people spend their time criticising and not really achieving a great deal.
@@jayjenzo2786 it’s crazy because because Geordie wasn’t a hater he was Conor’s biggest fan he was just giving criticism when it’s due
Almost every snippet of Geordie is him doubting Mcgregor lmfao
thats called telling the truth
Yet he's now a jake paul fan boy. Biggest hypocrite on TH-cam. Andrew tate also owns this bum.
@@rdrd9676 Exactly this guy probably still believes conor waffle loool the guy has been finished for years, anyone not seeing that now is seriously in denial to the point of delusion. He isn't hungry anymore and you know what they say about fighters who ain't hungry anymore, time to hang it up but conor loves attention too much to give it up for a simple life, a simple life at this point would drive him crazy and make him feel like he's living in hell
When there are many guys out there risking their lives to get a fraction of what he has right now
I liked the documentary. Was pretty insightful and made me gain some respect back for Conor. Considering he’s been a dick lately.
I agree, I thought he come across well, hard working, positive mentality.. and let’s be real, many fighters pull out of bouts for lesser injuries than Conor’s during camp… liked to have seen more about his businesses and stuff
Congrats for featuring in the doc mate 👍
loving the frequent fight content recently, please keep it coming geordie!!
I think the weakness of Conor’s team was on full display in the documentary. Cavenaugh seems more delusional than Conor. He desperately needs a new team but I don’t think it will happen.
Mcgregor would've been at a whole another level if he had a team like City kick boxing, tiger muay thai Or ATT.
@@user-gw4zg1qm8m I agree with that.
This was an excellent review mate!
Connor's face changing is probably the gear he's on
He is entertaining that's why he sells no matter what people say .
One of your best analysis tbh! Very astute
Hard to see CmcG coming back and beating any top 5 guys:
…Time off - stand still you go backwards.
…Constant injuries
…One leg
… to many opportunities - acting, whiskey, etc.
When I heard your voice in the opening scene I was like ‘oh no way, that’s Geordie’ 😅
So then this video shouldn’t be surprising to you right?😂 he doubts Conor in every clip😂
Well done Geordie. Balanced as always but clear with your opinion. Best in the business. Keep going mate 💪
I completely agree he was mismanaged but in the same breath I also look towards the hype around rumors being far greater than the actual event. If he'd come back and been super average, us remembering him would perhaps have been diminished in some way. Having all this around it as he retires adds to the unknown where people can speculate
Where can you buy that t-shirt?
True Geordie has really good self awareness and awareness of others inner mind. He is so good at this. Legend 👍
I watched Conor’s recent interview with the Mac life, and he himself said it was okay but you could tell he had little to do with it on the creative side
TG calling himself a "KiD" 😂😂
He was a 'kid' watching McGregor the same way Kim Kardashian looks at black guys and says- not my type
Innit swear he’s about the same age
@@ruiscomps1553 he’s older
bit of a weird analogy
@@Football0Lover well is it a 'bit' weird or is it weird? Because weird is an emphatic adjective? It strikes me as very difficult to be 'a bit' definitive?
The analogy is based on both statements not being true
@@liamjones9115 wow thats so profound bro. You're Chisora, I'm Dilian Whyte thats all
Binge watched it yesterday. Spot on, perfect analysis Brian
You left out a key point as to why the trilogy with Dustin went sour. Dustin accused Conor of reneging on his dination to Dustins charity. Conor ejded up donating to a different charity
Dustin was right tho I think? Connor said he was gonna donate 500k but didn’t, so Dustin pressed him on the issue. Connor said he believed the money would be going to private gyms for profit but idk what the truth is
Totally felt the same way Brian did. Just a recap of the Khabib fight with some interesting clips behind the scenes
Great video Brian. Fantastic insight
Damn! You keep getting better at those 👏🏼 Well done you! Spot on!
I’m not a Conor fan boy but giving up in the fourth round, the man had been in a gruelling fight and was deep in a fulcrum choke, I think giving up is the wrong termanoligy, compromised being more apt
In fighting. It’s giving up.
@@Dropnostop grow up
Yeah it’s not ‘giving up’ it’s straight up losing the fight. Connor fought until the end, it was over. If he didn’t tap he would’ve had a dislocated jaw and probably choked out, and the fight would’ve been over anyway, only he’d have an injury. Bad terminology from true geordie
I was waiting for the review lets gooo
Agree it was OK documentary didn't tell us anything we didn't know .. think the leg break In the 3rd poirer fight was a shame because he looked like he trained like a maniac for that and was in good shape ,definitely shouldn't of took the fight with the injury but I think conor didn't wanna waste anymore time. To quote top gun his mind cashing cheques his body can't pay . He's deluded but it would be nice if he proved us all wrong .but I doubt it .nothing kills luke inactivity
So it's been 2 years and counting. Do you see Chandler (very good but big holes in his defense) as a good fight or too tough for Conor now?
Saying a guy who has made a living fighting in the cage against the highest level is terrified of fighting another cage fighter is a little silly mate, he is a great, and will always go down as one no matter what.
The switch in True Geordies opinion of McGregor is insane 😂 used to be his biggest ass kisser to now. Think you’re bang on though tbh 👍🏼
honestly the point he makes about his psychology behind the khabib press conference makes a tone of sense
nah not really. it's just a basic perspective that is one of many possibilities.
Sometimes I agree with Brian, other times I disagree. But, one thing for sure is that TG always keeps it real. A genuine guy with reasonable opinions and truths that needs to be heard, especially towards the end of this video about Conor being in the decline.
Nice breakdown keep uo the good work
Great and honest review
Think you've really settled into your lane with the Pain Game! Brian. Keep up the great work mate!👍👊
Great review! Spot on 👍
That crocodile scene was so odd 😂
Love you Brian great vid, but when are you are going to address Laurence's absence?
Man the whole documentary just makes you wish it ended after the first 5 minutes and he stayed a happy father, I feel like he’s never lost his desire to fight but he needs to think about the level, not fighting active champions, fighting guys at his age and point in their career, like a Tony Ferguson or Nate Diaz
Loving the content Geordie, can we expect any coverage on Lomachenko vs Haney?
Probably KT-Cameron instead.
Spot on Review 👌
MMA Guru stole the show
Brown stole the pop
would have been nice to see some clips from the documentary spliced in here during the bits you were referencing
It’s gear that’s changed his face, he’s holding more water and his face has gained muscle there, you see it with bodybuilders thru there career.
Nobody mentions the face off in the octagon, it's the first time I ever saw Conor not hold eye contact, when I saw him look up and then away I had that feeling you spoke of feeling at the press conference. I found it really telling he knew he was about to get his ass handed to him in that face off.
This is a great analysis.
Conor's anger (like so many of us) is simply an expression of *_fear_* & you put it right, articulating that Conor knew he was in deep waters with sharks
I kinda agree when Brian talks about when Conor gets nasty in press conferences it means he thinks he’s gunna lose, I think the devils advocate is Diaz 2.. already been subbed and proven Diaz can take Conor’s shots. But the press never changed, still the same Conor and he went and beat Nate
No,
People are in diffrent modes.
Really not hard to undertand
@@nsbdbsbsbdbzbz8555 right… sure lad😂 defo liked your own comment too
It was hardly a convincing win. If anything I'd say that was a bad decision and Diaz should've got the win. Nate made him tap very convincingly in their first fight.
@@inglesconmatt I think you need to watch the fight again it doesn’t matter what happened in the first fight the 2nd fight he dropped Nate about 6 times was beating him up and you think it was a bad decision? SMH
@@jonodunn2592 It was pretty close - decision could've gone either way. Maybe I was wrong to say it was a bad decision on reflection, but Conor by no means won convincingly. Conor knocked him down once in the 1st and twice in the second. Conor won the first 2. 3rd rd was clearly Nate's and he won the 5th with a takedown. 4th round was the closest. Nate had more clinch control but got slightly outstruck.
His face change could be human growth hormone and steroids?
I do feel like it was Conor more than his coaches don’t get me wrong, the coaches helped him but I feel like it was more of his grit and determination to get to the top rather than world class coaches, as you’ve said yes men, I just feel as if they look at him in awe and it’s not what someone like him needed at all he needed a coach to tell him what to do but to little to late sad really his decline
Perfect review. Wording. We all loved the old conor. But his ego just carrying him now. In a way dont blame him. Hes done it all. He still can beat ppl on a good day but his top 10 ranking has gone dor good. Everyone has caught up and got better. Im not sure hed get chandler out there. Great podcast that
Was interesting that every clip of true geordid commenting was negative but honest and it shows great journalism
It's not that he's declined, it's that the competition has improved & he hasn't focused when it mattered a man in his early 30s he should be in his prime, but the Fighters he's fought were at their Prime too but worked harder when it mattered
Exactly this . Everyone else got better and he stayed still . I feel like he’s still got some fights in him at the top . But he needs to change coaches . The 2nd Dustin fight he was landing clean quality shots . But obviously very flat footed in that boxing stance . Who the fucks idea was it to send him in there like that . And for kavanahs advice saying keep doing what your doing when his leg was getting butchered was clown like . Like Anthony Joshua’s corner for congratulating him after getting boxed around round after round against Usyk . He needs to switch up coaches and go train with killers . Go to khamzats guy or Colby’s or anywhere really . I know he’s loyal and straight blast gym is his home but he needs to do what’s best
@@SJ-je8gw agreed, I think people are very quick to say someone's finished without taking other things into consideration, people don't acknowledge that others can improve, they blame it also on him going up a weight but if he had improved instead of staying still he would have less losses for sure
His body is clearly in decline, stress fractures and other injuries have been common for Connor, but I agree from a skill perspective he is being overtaken, he used to be ahead of the game, then he took 2 years out to box floyd and the game caught him up and over took him. He’s still very good and can compete with top level guys, but he isn’t the unstoppable winner he used to be
Spot on as always
A lot of it was about his injuries. I would think elite athletes would be guided on how important rest and nutrition is, if not more important than constantly training.
cant fault that breakdown. good work.
Conor was good in MMA but now he’s completely different and has come to a point where you just telling him to stop fighting He went down after he beat Nate Diaz and Eddie Alvarez back in 2016
That’s nearly 8 yrs ago. Time has flown by quick
@@jamesdewbrey It’s crazy man time flies
Not sure i agree with the reasoning behind the aggressive approach with Khabib. If he knew he was going to lose, he has injuries which we could've had seen to, for the purpose of delaying the fight etc. He also has the money to sit out for as long as he wants and heal. Khabib was getting a lot of praise at the time and people were dismissing Conor, the first time it had happened in MMA and it would have hurt his ego. Khabib is a dominant wrestler who would give Conor problems whereas if it was on the feet, Conor thought it would be an easy fight and everyone's comments of him after would be very different. Not to mention his loyalty to him team and Artem at the time - the cause for the bus incident. Conor predicted Khabib would be champ and they used to get along. Conor also hates Ali who is very involved and public as a manager
I disagreed aswell, the anger in my opinion was because Conor truly hated Khabib and his rage blinded him. In the Dustin 3 fight it was purely to regain an edge which as we know didn’t work
It's simply the psychology of fighters honestly I've been injured before big boxing matches that I shouldn't have fought but for some reason I still did it, it's stupid egotistical but it's brave and conor has never pulled out of a fight against anybody for any injury
Promoting his bbq sauce why did I find that so funny🤣
Great analysis. So true that he has so much anger nowadays and his face even looks different
Conor’s done in the UFC in terms of winning titles now
Rather watch your review than the doc haha
great analysis - i didnt make it past episode 1
Love you Brian mate
I still love Conor. No one has lived in his shoes. The documentary was great and made me respect him and understand him a little more.
Mishandling ? Not just ufc fault. It's the fighters aswell. Izzy and volk great active champs. They choose to fight and we get four fights a year. The fighter needs and wants to fight. Not the ufc managing it. 😊
What are you talking about? Conor wanted to fight. The only reason the Dustin fight happened was because Conor was tweeting to Dustin about having a boxing match for charity. He forced them to make the fight happen.
hi brian me and podge really enjoyed it
Brian back to glazing up McNuggets
whats up with these camera angles
On point!
I think chandler is a bad idea. I’d given Bobby green first before chandler
Chandler is perfect for Conor, Conor will pick him apart, Chandler fights so wild
I don’t think he genuinely does want to fight though, I think he gives the facade of someone who’s still got it, he knows the moment he says he no longer want to fight is basically retirement which will also mean his relevance will diminish and I think he hates that idea.
The documentrary CONOR MCGREGOR NOTORIOUS was better because its shows the hunger, the before the fame and money and double champ climax....his rise was crazy. His fall has been just sad because we all wish he was still fighting and winning and smashing blokes....
I totally respect true Gordy's honesty
Brave man
Do more doc reviews / true crime videos @ True Geordie
It’s HGH he’s sauced out of his mind
Finally someone addresses his face, I've been saying he looks like he's had work done for months but no one except you have actually said it, when it's clear as day !
Spot on
This review of the documentary is far better than the actual documentary
Excellent review. For me he's turned into a "dance for me boy" for the UFC.
How could it live up to the first documentary
not sure he only gets angry and loses it because he thinks he is going to lose I don’t believe he has that mentality. Genuinely think he hated khabib.
He wasn’t scared 😂😂😂
I enjoyed it - he’s definitely got issues with his own success and can’t let go. Totally agree with you, it’s time to hang the gloves up and focus on something else.
Very, very good review mate. I thought same and F negative comments bro..
Gordon. It’s the roids. Not the partying that changed his face lol.
Conots twitter response to this is gold 😂
with that amount of distraction watch him get flatlined by Chandler in 2nd round.
Sppot on -especially bout the team - thought you'd mention the bare knuckle thing at end - would he really fancy it? I duno - respect
I agree literally to every word from you about McGregor
very good point made ...13.20: hes a totally different conor... now compare that to what we used to hear about khabib,,, hes hasnt lost a round, he is ruthless in training, and ruthless in fights. and that is what we heard always. we didnt hear things like he is a totally different khabib now... or even fighters with loses. like izzy,,, they dont say he is a totally different izzy.
because honestly the best thing we can hear from conor's coaches would be : he is coming close to the fighter he was when he won his 2nd belt.
Outstanding documentary.
Need kavanagh on the podcast again. So interesting to see what’s happening from that sense
I agree with everything u said, please dont stop speaking your mind, the truth, you see it as it is and it is what it is.
