I find this excuse exhausting. He looked sharp as ever in the cage. He won the first round on all three judges score cards. He predicted a one minute victory. He was fully prepared to be there.

He just got beat, fair and square. The game is evolving, Conor hasn’t been.

e/ And when he faces elite competition at the proper weight class, things can go badly.

He’s 3-2 in his last 5. One of which was the absolute destruction of Alvarez.

there is a difference when you go from camp to camp and take care of your body/self.
This guy has been a total trainwreck since he got his big payday going from accusations of rape/fighting, snorting cocaine and drinking heavily
when he was hungry as i stated before, he was basically living a quiet life and focusing heavily on fighting and he had room to improve

Going back on the pony after years of not fighting, getting a win under 1 minute vs cerrone and then going back against poirier who has been fighting the best of his division for the last 3 years
it aint no easy task and conor as you stated didnt improve much, he looks like the same guy who fought nate diaz and i agree on this. Conor only got himself to blame for how his career went in the end, if he had kept the focus on his fighting career instead of being a heavy drinker/cocaine snorter he would have done much better in his recent fights

Then don’t sign the contract. Just excuses imo.
All that is

Well its conor afterall, him and great decisions dont go hand in hand (outside of the whiskey business)

I think it was a great decision tbh, swoop in fight a guy you already beat once and get immediate title shot or just granted the title if they strip Khabib.

Just didn’t work out. And I haven’t seen his whiskey in any local bars, and it’s not in most stores, so idk how well that’s really working out.

e/ Not trying to take a extra shot at Conor, looked for Jose Masvidal’s tequila w/e mezcal and it’s no where either. Maybe I’m just not in a hot spot for cool shit.

e2/ And I know mezcal exists cause Jon Jones had an open bottle in his car last time he got arrested.

But you can literally find this everywhere.. go figure.

i understand your viewpoint but i also tend to disagree. yes he beat dustin previously, the money was good and he would have a title shot had he won but.
You have been into all kind of trouble for the last few years, you didnt have your mindset set on fighting and being in the gym as much as you would have previously and you are fighting one of the best lightweight who have improved a lot since the last time you fought him and that same guy fought against the best of the division for the last few years.

Maybe that will be the spark that wakes him up and he goes back full time to fighting or he'll do the same hes been doing the last few years of drinking/snorting cocaine
and then getting the itch to fight again one fight per 1-2 years

not a fan of conor but his fights are always good to watch not gonna lie

and for his whiskey, the last time i was going out at bars i could see the bottle there at the bars i went but i didnt go to any bar for over 18 months

Proper Twelve is in most liquor stores in Tampa, it's actually part of the weekly liquor ad for Winn-Dixie

ring rust and coke will in fact have an effect on your mental... unless he's beast like coke jones lol
