How Inactivity (And Drugs) Ruined Conor McGregor's Career 📉

[@ARMY-ep6fz]

I have zero expectations for Conor to be anything like he used to be. Everyone can see he's on drugs and isn't training like he should be. He's not hungry anymore so the motivation isn't truly there anymore.

[@theinvestingpalace4710]

It was all faked. McGregor beats Chandler and then will become the first 6-belt champion

true but i feel like if he fights how he fought in the sparring video he can win, chandler is the perfect person to fight like that, mixing it up and being a counter fighter instead of a pressure fighter

[@toddhoward5555]

He's a business man and a family man now... Sure he looked drugged out of his mind in those interviews and videos, but later videos like the ones promoting his PFL investment shows that he can be lucid and speaking just like his old self. His way of doing things is just full of that dgaf attitude which freaks out people and makes for nice gossip and clickbait material

His hunger is what made him THE NOTORIOUS without that hunger he is nothing

Conor has become "cool to hate" but I'll never forget how he single handedly grew the sport, and put it in the limelight. For that, he will always be a legend in my book. His rise was one of the most exciting and electric things I've ever seen in sports.. But as they say.. Father Time is undefeated..

The Mayweather money dulled his hunger. Then Khabib took his soul.

@1974Imperium typical lifeless hater spotted here smh...just looked into your other comments on this channel and my god you live a miserable life

[@ryanphung320]

He’s notorious for a reason. Conor still achieved more than most fighters by doing less. The topic of ruining his career is subjective. Could he have done more? Yeah. But he reached a point where he didn’t actually need to.

[@williammoore1980]

Which is sound logic, if he’d stepped away when he should have. But he came back and got beat multiple times. Now, he’s chasing his own shadow, which is far more elusive than any success he’s gained.

He got like Rocky in Rocky 3. He got the fame and the riches and got soft. After losing to Khabib, his aura was shattered and it was nothing but downhill from there. Khabib was smart to quit while he was on top.

[@user-wk4ee4bf8g]

Yup, losing twice to Dustin finished off any remaining fight aura. He didn't even have good mic aura in the prefight stuff for their third fight. But Khabib started it all, whopped his ass in his prime and shamed his shitty behavior by being a superior man.

[@jayesh1891]

would khabib have had lost a fight if he continued? maybe... but his losses woudnt have been that shameless as connor bc connor aint that mature

[@BrdOutaMyMnd]

You forgot to mention that money also played a part in his decline. His fanboys will say different but they're also the the ones who didn't see him fight until the Floyd Mayweather fight.

[@APNetworX]

Not a fan of his behaviour, but the guy became very successful, generational wealth, his kids and family is taken care of for life. He did what he wanted to do, have to give him some respect for that.

[@user-wk4ee4bf8g]

That bit on action\inaction ignores the joy of just being. "Success" is a hamster wheel, keeps you running for the carrot on the string forever. The idea of (me now) + (insert achievement)= finally happy. But if you can't be happy doing nothing in the moment, simply being yourself, you haven't found anything but another carrot to chase. It's like the protestant work ethic, trying to buy your way into heaven with good deeds, instead of simply enjoying being present in your being.

Best lightweight on the planet said no one ever! Featherweight ✅

[@andrewwolf7798]

The most overlooked factor in CM's rise within the sport was the weight class he fought in. His power carried well in the featherweight division - THAT is where he was unstoppable. When he fought Alvarez he was still active / prime CM and easily had enough to stop Alvarez with his timing and accuracy. Perhaps if he wouldn't have become a mega-millionaire directly thereafter and would've kept his head on straight, MAYBE he could've found a way to continue that dominance in the LW division. Problem was that elite LW's can withstand his power. Add some wrestling prowess and most LW's in the top 5 would eat him for lunch. Alvarez, an aging Cerrone and I PERHAPS Chandler are good matches for him. He can beat Chandler but he isn't getting near Islam, DP, or even Oliveira. Side Note: Chandler could still starch his ass - he is a power house. We'll see.

[@DanoOkeeffe]

You can't say "inactivity" in his prime he was fighting 3 times a year winning nearly all his fights by knock outs. He was a double weight champion in cage warriors then got his chance in the UFC and became the first double weight champion so hardly "inactive" look at his fights compared to Khabib who fought 1 fight in 3 years at one point. Never beat a champion to win his belt and only fought 2 fighters ranked in the top 5. Conor got a fight against Floyd that made him so much money he never had to fight again. Dana said it himself Conor never turned down a fight. How many times did Khabib duck Tony in his prime even running to the hospital when the UFC doctor cleared him to fight. The types don't lie watch Conor's best knock out reels than watch Khabib's first thing you will see is most of the people Khabib fought nobody ever heard of who had more losses than wins on there record. The most padded record in UFC history. Conor was KO,en unbeaten 10 year champions with 1 punch whilst Khabib was beaten a guy with 3 losses and 1 win

[@nicholasmills8843]

This is why I really admire those that go out on top especially in a sport as brutal as combat sports. Conor should've retired after the Mayweather fight or at the very least the Khabib fight, as everything since then has largely been a disappointment. But immense wealth will do that. For a brief moment he was on the top of the world and It's sad to see his decline and I fear that the Chandler fight will just be another step down the ladder. I hope it isn't, but I can't see it going any other way.

If you call being in a position where you are highest paid first time actor with a record breaking Amazon feature being labeled as slipping off think again. If you call strolling back into a 20 million dollar easy fight where he won't get touched a slip think again. Sky's still the limit for this man with style points. Anyone would be fortunate and accomplished to fall off like a Conor McGregor. You guys are fools to think this dude has fallen from grace. Everything he touches turns to gold. Do you measure that as success or failure. He's going to break more records in his next fight which will line him up for an even bigger one. Bigger and bigger and bigger is how this man's career will go. The fact that he can party like a Rock Star and still produce records is inspiring and many would say perfect harmony and balance Let's not forget his amazing wife and kids You all wish we all wish we could have a life soon blessed and inspiring to others. I'm sure this man lived his life with an energy and intensity when he was flat broke. That success that's richness in attitude and mindset. Everything else is merely a vessel for that energy. Success breeds success and it also breeds haters.
