Straight up question - has your opinion of him changed after the Mayweather fight was announced.
I used to find him admirable but I hate him now especially with the Paulie fiasco where I truly believe he's milking it hard (I believe he's lying about taxing dat ass in sparring and no it was not a knockdown).
You really can't help but admire a man that came from cashing welfare checks to being involved in the biggest ppv of all time. No one believed in him like he believed in himself. His will is legendary.
True. I think this guy has an amazing story. He bought his dad a boat with an inscription "188" on the back. One hundred eighty eight dollars was the amount he used to collect in his welfare checks. He said he always wanted to remember where he came from and this is a quality that impresses me. I wish him well in this fight.
I really like him, and I think it's cool that he made Paulie live up to his words. He is fearless and he dares to step into another mans game. I definitely like him, but I side with boxing in this one. Rolling with the king.
Didn't like him before and now I can't stand the moron. He can't even pronounce fuck he says fook like a retard. I use to think it was a persona but now I think he really is a delusional moron.
This right here. Plus he disrespected the sport and the boxers. Then the **** he pulled vs van heerden and paulie and dana whos in his team lying again about the sparring footage sent to showtime. They are all a bunch of pricks.

Feel same way.
I liked watching him in the UFC he made it kinda interesting to me but I think its all gone to his head of course he isnt gonna say "I cant beat floyd im gonna get dominated " but he genuinely believes this is going to be easy and he is invincible
Even if he shocks everyone and makes it competitive its still going to be the most difficult fight he has ever had he just doesn't seem aware of that and thats going to be his downfall when 4 or 5 rounds have gone by and nothing is working his hands are tied because he cant use his natural UFC instincts he will mentally quit then its game over
I don't mind him but i still think them wanting to exploit Paulie was a c.unts trick though. Probably revealed a lot about him, especially when you consider they tried to manipulate the Van Heerden situation too.
One thing i'll say is if Floyd is a massive egomaniac, then Conor is right up there with him.
Nobody is perfect and people can and do change for better and for worse, I just honestly believe right now his ego is way out of control and hes becoming delusional. Self belief is all good and it's even good to push it to the limit, but there come a point where believing you can literally fly or walk on water is a delusion. There have been cases of people who believed they could fly and have jumped from buildings etc. This is why you need people around you who are not cheerleaders and yes men who will pull you to the side and keep it real. sometimes you need a reality check.
There are aspects of him i do like and admire for sure but currently I am not a fan, i feel like his ego has got the better of him and hes become arrogant and at times distasteful, I noticed this started to happen around about the time he won the title in the UFC and its progressively got worse. I think hes put the fame and money and perception above his craft, A bit like what broner did.
No difference at all.
I dislike him as much I did before.
I lost some respect for him after the way he treated Paulie, but then I remembered that this is Paulie we're talking about so while what he did was sh1tty, it gets canceled out because he did it to Paulie.
