Conor McGregor's act was once entertaining. Now it's just sad and pathetic. After another loss to Dustin Poirier at UFC 264, it's getting harder to remember when McGregor was on top of the MMA world for winning in the Octagon as much as for his trash-talking and larger-than-life personality. The sight of McGregor sitting on the mat with a broken leg after the loss and still talking about Poirier’s wife was embarrassing, and it's painfully clear that his celebrity is a far bigger driving force behind the interest in his fights than his current ability.
At this rate, Conor McGregor seems closer to joining WWE, the next Fast and the Furious movie or a fight with Jake Paul than he does to ever reclaiming his spot atop UFC.
