Wow, insanely delusional. Conor got pieced up on the feet and on the ground in a clear textbook 10-8 round. Then got TKO’d via Dustin’s knee checking & cracking Conor’s leg. See this post for gifs of this.
Even if Conor changes camps, I’m not sure he can come back to the level he once was. But he’ll for sure need to change camps to even have a shot.
This right here is a major part of his problem that doesn’t get talked about enough. He has surrounded himself with excuse makers and yes men and he has not only not evolved and gotten better over the last five years, he has regressed. One of the biggest things about being a champion or high level person at any type of combat sport is how you handle defeat, adversity, and how you grow from it. Just look no further than Dustin and what he has done over the last few years. As long as he continues to have this mindset and be around people who think the same he will continue to be a shell of what he once was and could have been. Same thing happened to Honda and they are both two of the biggest frauds in the history of MMA.
