Not sure if I agree that Muhammad Ali is the black Connor McGregor though.
Out of the sidelines and into the limelight its triviaaaaaaaa with Golden boy.
Nice seeing you post. 
Connor is the black Willie Pep. 
Conor is the white Muhammad
Which fight?
Conor is a white Brian Ebersole.
If you're a fan of fighting you should be wanting to watch this guy fight all the time. No matter what you may think of him outside of the cage, watching him fight is a thing of beauty. He's the progression of unarmed combat personified.

Golden Boy! Glad to see a post from an old school forum member!
Anything you were impressed with about McGregor? Anything you weren't?
Cheers.
Technical Primates -I agree. You can really notice his growth and change in his fighting style. He came off the Ivan Buchinger fight in Cage Rage as a boxer with flashy kicks but now he's really coming into his own and embracing the traditional martial arts side of MMA. Kicks are now utilized much more since his debut against Marcus Brimage. The guy is phenomenal to watch. Say what you want about him but his talent is undeniable. So much potential, it's not a matter of when but if he can get past killers like Aldo, Frankie and possibly Pettis in the future.
