Conor McGregor’s future with Proper No. 12 whiskey uncertain after investors take controlling interest in company

They say Connor is 32 lol the dude looks everything of a 45 year old
His nick name is Fast Tap

McGregor belongs in wwe he knows how to talk and entertain before a fight...
Im glad he is doing well in life ...win or lose he is making a lot of money. Good for him.
Samuel King
Conor and Khabib on the ultimate fighter on my god that would be amazing
Ghufran Muhammad
Conor: "I fought the best of Khabib, he fought the worst of me." This guy should consult a psychiatrist.
Sixpenny Productions
Mcgregor needs ido portal back
D D
Talented guy . But not top tier. His mouth made him a star more than his skill in the ring. Sure he had impressive wins. He is way more talented than I am. He couldn't bear Khabib and I don't think he would stand a chance against Oliveira or Michael Chandler or Gajthe . Imho
D D
Remember that shoulder knockout of Cerrone? Suspect fight against an aged Cerrone. I am sorry if there ever was a fixed fight I'm sticking with that one.

Conor was good at an oversized 145 who paid Aldo to lose, which destroyed Aldo mentally.

Mctapper to maclosser to macsleeper. What a joke dis guy is

Dustin poirer took Conor down. Game over with khabib still not good enough to face him. Dustin fought the best shape Conor and knocked him out.

"Anyone in any sport" - can't wait to see Conor become Formula One Champion. Lewis Hamilton, be ready.

Old drunk men hitting racist evil man. Connor. He abused mayweather while his daughter was their. He was made off mayweathers back. Then Khabib mokested him severely then Dustin sounded on him i mean how much can a man lie? This guy was fake from day one. Media hyped him. End game.

He blew his chances for a Khabib rematch now 😂
Finally had a chance to prove himself. But Poirier finished him.

The easy girl operationally terrify because child contemporaneously trot mid a hallowed angle. fortunate, frequent spot
letmeknowhowthatgoes
He speaks of the 155ers — Dustin, Khabib, Nate... as if they are the 45ers — Siver, Mendes, Brandao... "If they can take the shots..." Hey bro, get this — they can take the shots. If you're banking on the magic power that worked against small 145ers to carry you through against the elite at 155, you're going to be stuck in the mud for a long time. They absolutely can and will be able to take the shots. Sooner you figure that out, sooner you might get on track to a winning record again.
letmeknowhowthatgoes
They had a "What's the next belt for you" dinner. Lol, what a joke.
Sam Wh
"I am still the champion, I will show it with my performances" Lol what a clown.
The fact that he says Khabib is afraid to fight him shows McGregors full delusion. Still no humility, even tho he was begging for mercy in the octangon after getting his head caved in
Rich
I feel like the writing was on the wall in this interview, said he wasnt as active last year, and he retired because the UFC essentially shelved him. He hints he has a bit of ring rust multiple times, and when fighting Dustin, everyone should've seen it coming
bofooit gojo
So happy Ariel got this interview. Conor is as loyal as they come.

Khabib scaRed?😂 he was nearly put you to sleep forever but your tap saved it .

Connor is too cocky and he despises khabib, i kinda hate that, wish they would be friends
fouoii gyhh
Everything looks so good ???
Dave Reynolds
I have just as much admiration for Conor in defeat - than I do in a raucous,
Irish, Conor-led party and celebration. Showed tremendous heart vs. Dustin despite
this being Dustin's night. Kept taking shots at the end out of pure Will and Heart
to survive. Much respect to both Champions. Nothing changed or changes. Loved
these guys b4, love them now.

Mcgregor needs to get his footwork coach back.. His movementt look stiiff and unbalanced.. Slow and flat footed ..he moved alot better when he was training with his movement coach

One answer: Khabib.

'I'm going to knock him out in 60 seconds'
'If he can last, he can last but it's going to be a smooth one for me'

This isn't going to age very well. Well played Dustin!

Saying Khabib is scared of him is completely delusional. Khabib whooped him and made him tap. He had 1 good round and thinks he won and is still champ. 🤦🏻♂️
addy red
@Justin bautista that was not a point decision he tapped
addy red
@innosanto tap tap buddy tap tap
Frank Ernest
@Justin bautista If you don’t like ground fighting, watch boxing or kickboxing. People even hold in those two sports. That is called reality. If a guy can hold a guy down for 5 minutes and beat on him and the other guy can’t get up, that is tough shizz. Learn to get up or not be taken down
innosanto
Come on that is bs. Conor could have beat Khabib in that match.
Justin bautista
Khabib held him the entire time, there was only one round where he actually threw punches on the ground. McGregor would whoop now
Bob Fresno
Something was off about Connor heading into the fight. Maybe he’s off steroids,
Big Chief 81
I love seeing this Conner. Much Respect

I am watching this after Porier KO-ed Conor, and its just hilarious hahahhaha
Mohammed Abdullatif
@innosanto agreed
innosanto
Conor has lost his focus. It is clear since before Mauweather

No one can beat motivated Conor....

@Eileen Dalton Jake Paul gonna knock him out

Man this HURTS. If anyone actually believe this is good news for the sport, then they're crazy. With him losing, we'll never get to see that rematch with Khabib.
The way he lost was extremely worrying as well. He got rocked with one punch. I just couldn't believe it.
Neil Mc cann
Conor has made his money and lost the hunger , it’s a natural human fact . What your seeing is a guy who knows his hunger is gone but he is turning up for more money 💴

Go hit an old man in a bar ! Khabeeb is way above your league looser.

Hype vs reality. Dustin didn't take a dive like Cerrone did.

@Terra Firma Then he has an ulcer for Floyd Mayweather.

Time to enjoy life with your family, khabib is levels above all especially too ahead of conor

Charlie and whiskey 🥃 takes its toll in the end.

I actually do believe he can beat Khabib now.

Who is here after Conor took the L against Dustin 😆😆
Mikail Mooraj
@Pratik Garkar He put himself in the position to fight Floyd Mayweather bec before that he was the 1st ever UFC Featherweight & Lightweight champ. Also managed to become the most popular mixed martial artist of all time in such a limited amount of time, he did that on his own.
Pratik Garkar
@Mikail Mooraj success ?? He did nothing .... Floyd Mayweather change his life ...this chicken 🐔 don't even know how to box
Mikail Mooraj
@GreenFridays Exactly, they are all just jealous of his success so they need to spread hatred bec they arent in the position he is in. Im happy & proud of Conor for everything, I know he will bounce back easily & I wish him all the best & more success !
GreenFridays
So basically, you were a couch potato this weekend? And you still haven't accomplished half as much as Conor? Got it.
Crab Purger Jefferson
Yh he’s washed up ,he ain’t going to have a win streak more than 2 fights in this division
Mark G
Conor wasn’t moving well. Focused on boxing and boxing mega fights in training clearly.and it showed. Not fluid
Peter Gunnarsen
He said post-fight interview The leg kicks did it for him. It messed up his flow

Dustin got his revenge. Conor lost that twitch and got rusty in the left hand. him trying to learn new techniques screwed him long term.
