Today he watched the entire card with me. Said the same thing as always at first (too violent), then became really engaged around the Cruz/Mizugaki fight, then started repeating Rogan's analysis and my in-fight statements, opinions and rants to my mom after the fights were over.
He even gave surprisingly good play by play when they replayed the Cruz/Mizugaki fight after the DJ/Cariaso fight. :D

The only one who likes stirring **** up is basically so unchallenged she's stopped doing it because she spends build-ups to her fights trying to legitimize her contender so she can't go telling the world how she's gonna **** her up... respectfully.
If Conor can get that belt and relight the fire under Aldo's ass and build a Alvarez/Chandler-esque rivalry with him MMA will be on another level of awesomeness for a few years.
Think how interesting Chael made our lives, love him or hate him, now take that and add serious talent backing up the talk into the mix. I'm getting a semi-chubby just thinking about it.
Even if you hate Conor, believe me, you want him to touch UFC gold even for a while.
