Conor McGregor is far from the greatest UFC fighter ever, but he is quickly becoming the most entertaining.
The UFC has never seen a character like McGregor and it works because it’s genuine. Every word out of Conor’s mouth is spoken with passion and with confidence. During the 189 world press tour, which has never been done to promo a fight before, Conor steals the show.
It’s hard to imagine the UFC wanting this phenomenon that is Conor McGregor to end. In under 2 years he’s becoming one of there biggest stars and has the ability to take the sport to levels they haven’t seen before.
It’s okay to have a bunch of nice guys as your best fighters, but in combat sports nothing sells like the bad guy.
