Why UFC Star Conor McGregor is Good for the Sport of MMA

Conor McGregor is excellent for the sport of MMA. He sells more pay-per-views than any other fighter in the UFC. In a recent bout with Dustin Porier, Conor broke his leg at the end of the first round. Some people say that he is going to retire. He is so good for the sport though. Here is why Conor McGregor is good for the sport.

McGregor is one of the best trash talkers in the sport. Sure, some of the things he says aren’t the nicest, but that is what trash talking is all about. People love his trash talk and people watch his press conferences just for the trash talk.

McGregor has made a lot of people like the UFC. Some people wouldn’t watch the UFC at all if it wasn’t for Conor. I know UFC was the first MMA league that I watched. Watching UFC led me to watching other leagues like Triller, Bellator, BKFC, and many more. MMA is continuing to grow, and some people got introduced to the sport by Conor.

Conor is also good for the big stars in the UFC. There are many big stars that wouldn’t be big if they didn’t fight McGregor, and there are still many people that can become stars if they fight him. Even if people are just fighting on one of his cards, it is great publicity. There are many people out there that just watch the fights when it is Conor McGregor.

As you can see, Conor is good for the sport. He really has helped the UFC and other MMA leagues grow throughout the years.
