    I like his suit, he reminds me of one of those flamboyant gays not bothered what folk think but really just an attention seeker.

    Other than that he looks as though he's enjoying the moment and so he should, it's a once in a lifetime opportunity to earn what he's earning.

      no, all his act is borrowed from other people, not original.

        What is his character really? true character is the choices you make under pressure. When the going got tough against Nate Diaz, Conor took the easy way out. Meanwhile his nuthuggers praised him for doing the smart thing.
        Boxing fans would rightfully call him out as a quitter.

        This is what we've seen of Conor, a loud persona who would never go out on his shield. His fight with Floyd will end with him sitting on his stool, shaking his head, telling his corner that he's had enough.

          For this thread characters are people who standout. They march to the beats of their own drum.

          informal
          an interesting or amusing individual.

            Too scripted and WWE-ish for me. I prefer genuinely off-the-wall characters like Tyson Fury and Chris Eubank Sr

              His charisma and personal magnetism is his greatest asset! He is probably the most charismatic athlete in sports right now!

                  He's Gerry Cooney with a foul mouth and the benefit of the UFC hype machine. You have people who want to believe in him and like Gorgeous George people will tune in to even to see him lose.

                  He's good at his job in that sense. Do I find him interesting or amusing personally? no, because I've seen it done before and I've seen it done better. He might be a first for MMA fans, Boxing has been there and done that already.

                    Love him.
                    What fighting should be all about, unfortunately we have no one in boxing that comes close to what he's about.
