Do you all agree McGregor has been the most influential fighter in MMA history ??

[Metallicalabran]

He has:
- Entertaining fight style
- Big wins
- 2 title holder
- Biggest PPV events
- Biggest mainstream impact
- 1/2 of sherdog threads being about him

He has not:
- The biggest win streaks
- Title defenses
- The most well rounded style
- Unbeaten record
- Fights right now, very unactive

but thats not what this thread is about (because I know every Conor hater gonna say that)

The thread is about the most influential fighter in MMA history. It is Conor?

 

[knowsitall]

Of course.

Conor Bless MMA.

[Toco]

jeuss, mcgregor fans are completely.....

FEDOR, ANDERSON, JONES, GSP. you know, the actual fucking GOATs that also DEFENDED the belt not once but MULTIPLE times

when you say this kind of shit you're spitting on these fighters' legacies

 

[bl0b]

Exactly. People love to refute, but never actually contribute.

Ronda was pretty big too.

Conor was bigger, but with notable asterisks. He's diminishing by the week now. Essentially a caricature of a fighter at this point.

[Buffmeister]

Royce Gracie put MMA/UFC on the map...he influenced us all...

 

[Metallicalabran]

Ronda was pretty big too.

Conor was bigger, but with notable asterisks. He's diminishing by the week now. Essentially a caricature of a fighter at this point.

so, the answer is yes

I agree Ronda was big too.

 

[RJ43]

Easily.

 

[DeathByBeer]

Justin Beiber is the most influential artist in music history then.

Has the most TMZ interviews, sold the most singles, girls love him, gets talked about the most.

So yes, exactly like that.

Just wish I could watch him fight in MMA sometime again....

 

[Buffmeister]

He definetly influenced some poor hipster kids to get some bad tattoos...thats for sure
