Conor Mcgregor mentions Rocky III "dancing monkeys"; says meant circus-like celeb gym

People aren't falling for shit.
We get that every single thing that is said from now until the match is promotion for the match.
We also get that Conor is saying some disgusting racist shit.
The two realizations are not mutually exclusive and nobody's guiding anything forward by smugly declaring this to be a work to all those jabroni marks.

If this is in regards to my first post in the thread, you're blowing it out proportion. It didn't confuse me at all. I just made the mistake of reading the thread title and posting in haste.
Like no one has ever done that before on this forum, ever. But I learned my lesson not to do this in a racially-sensitive topic.
Drop the passive-aggressiveness and just call people out next time.

Wow.
Man, I hate how he struts up and down chewing that gum. He doesn't even have to open his mouth and I hate him.
Lol people actually trying to suggest he's not racist. Get the fuck out.

The part I don't get is that like 4 years ago Conor was on benefits while working an electrician job or something? How do you go from that humble to this...
When you're an arrogant asshole it's pretty easy.
What an absolute fucking clown that dude is. Like from a bad comedy sketch. All of this is so embarrasing for sports, or atleast boxing.

It's a loaded phrase with a lot of history behind it here in the US.

haha no doubt. But man I can't even hate. Dudes work hard and want that big pay out. It's embarrassing, but they gotta eat I suppose.
Also, note the TONS of casual sexism. "You ho", "Yo pussy", "stripper". But no internet rage...

Pretty sure he was on benefits because he chose to be, he quit his job to train full time.

I much prefer this instead of the passive-aggressiveness!
Did you really think after your post I wasn't going to reply?

"Telling a black person to go eat watermelon and fried chicken can't be racist me and my friends eat fried chicken and watermelon all the time what's the big deal?"
I believe his camp is using the 'Trump' technique, of just doubling down on crazy to secure a large part of a particular market.
Also, going on a pure trash talking show for a couple months, where two gifted shit talkers are being put in front of millions of people over and over, this is bound to happen, if even by mistake, material dries up..they dig deeper for something to excite the masses, and before you know it its 'dancing m**key's' vs. 'Bog Trottin NRA Mick drunken bastards' (or whatever, FM hasn't gone there yet at all, maybe he wont).
I also don't think the global view of racism is quite the same, people around the globe are very prejudiced against many things like countries, religions, political affiliation, favorite football club etc, I wonder if Conor has a real grip on this severity of skin color in the US as the main form of prejudice / the history of slavery, and how it plays into the daily conversation here...perhaps he does, surely he should, someone should get in his ear and keep him from this direction of 'talk'.

This is some supervillain-sounding shit right here!
Why would I think that? I called you out.
Good job, now I'm going to have to read 20 pages back because you were being passive aggressive to racists defenders that wouldn't take the time to read all your posts.

Was listening to Le Batard about this. He called it cartoon racism and he is right. Neither one should be talking about race, neither one is taking any of it seriously, and they are using it to prop their fight and bring in more viewers. The problem is you have people who don't realize this and start to take it at face value causing more friction with race relations.
Gonna be a hot mess.

Ok, I've admitted my mistake. So what are we talking about now? Or are we just so hung up on moral superiority?
He almost certainly doesn't. The Ireland he grew up on was almost exclusively white. He's from a working class area himself so dunno his exact circumstances but he could easily have felt like the underclass. Calling Mayweather 'boy' for example, I know is completely loaded in the US but it just isn't in Ireland, it means nothing.
He's been stupid as fuck here, no doubt. I personally don't believe the guy has anything against black people but he's totally put his foot in it here and said things nobody should.
Yuuup.

How is that a wall of shame? I just quoted the three most recent posts after he asked what we were talking about. Because that's what we're talking about.

This.
It's cognitive dissonance to on one hand accept and appreciate his creativity and whit which are both regularly on display, then plead stupidity in his selection of language here. He's not a dummy. He knows what he's doing. But this shit is all circus carnival so as I said yesterday, I don't know how to ascribe value to this. Sort of feels like being offended while watching a Tarentino movie.
Seems fairly straight forward. Its a common thing you do.
Yup. Im going to enjoy watching Floyd school Conor.

How is answering the man's question as directly as possible by quoting the three most recent posts in the thread = "wall of shame" Vag? Who is being "shamed" there? What kind of "wall" is three quotes?
This thread. I swear to God.

I just never liked how in the history of boxing, especially in regards to big fights, racial lines are drawn and sadly that is what sells tickets.
Just my opinion.

Barring some sort of pre-planned shennigans, Floyd's gonna kill that man. Won't even be close.
I'm not sure what people are thinking.
My problem with this shit talking isn't that it is or isn't racist, or it isn't sexist. It's that loads of dumb shits watching ti take it up and incorporate it into their way of thinking because they believe that its all real.
Meanwhile the two of them spend a few hours on the same private jet together flying to London.
It's toxic stuff, even if though it can be entertaining.
Tone it down Conor you muppet.
