That didn’t work out so well for him tho... that’s why most other fighters would wait.
e/ And other fighters took fights with contenders in the weight class that they were in, most recently Frankie Edgar. Had a title shot lined up, champ injured he could have went up to 155 for a Money fight while he waited, but he took on the next toughest guy in his weight class and lost losing his title shot.
Agreed he got his ass beat, but people seem to overlook he was a 145'r, fighting his very first fight in the ufc at 155, already done camp, then when RDA pulled out he accepted a last minute fight at 170 pounds vs Nate.
Thats not the same as Frankie taking a fight in his own division.
How many times has Conor taken a last minute fight? Multiple. How many times has Conor pulled out of a fight? Zero.

He took it because he was DELUSIONAL and thought Nate would be an easy win... His ego was far bigger than his left hand, why you are praising him for being stupid is beyond me.
Maybe, he thinks every fighter is an easy win, thats the menatality he and a lot of fighters have.
Praising a fighter for taking risks for the benefit and sake of the fans? if you don't take risks in life devilslayer each day is going to be more mundane than the last.
