    No problem with working class accents or anything else. I'm working class myself. It's not the accent, but the shit that rolls off his tongue every time he opens his mouth that bugs me.
    And while I get that trash talk is sadly integral to getting people to buy into it, this guys trash talk is so bad it's funny.
    Fair play to him though, he's making a good living off his mouth and the reputation he's getting by using it.
    Let's see if he can back it up against a real fighter, not the puddings they've been pairing him off with up to now

    What a moronic comment. NO, he is not making a living off his mouth, he is making a living off being a great athletic and being undefeated in his UFC career. If you don't like him, fine, piss off and keep your comments to yourself because your ignorant views mean nothing to MMA fans

    Dustin Poirier is not substantial enough for you?? If you think he has gotten an easier road to a tittle shot than any of the other contenders you just need to check their records.

    Edgar: got a title shot coming off two losses in the LW division.
    Mendez: Fought 3 nobodies outside of top ten to get his recent shot
    Swanson: 2-1 in his three fights prior to title shot against poor opposition.


    McGregor is on a 13 fight streak. 5 fight streak in the UFC. 4 out of 5 were finishes. Finished two top ten UFC guys with ease. And took a one sided decision against Holloway, now himself a legit contender. Beat one of the best MMA grapplers in the UK to take the CW lightweight title before he was in the UFC.

    But still, haters gonna hate.
