      He is a good guy but when it comes to his coaching at the top level he is a one hit wonder. And even with Conor he basically said he lets Conor do whatever he wants so Conor would've probably be as good if not better in whichever gym he chosed to start in.

    Conor is once in a lifetime superstar that comes with extra baggage
    Coach kavanagh plays the political game with him and manages the situation correctly
    No point rocking the boat with him. It’s up to the athlete to want it and dedicate themselves.
    If not then just do what you have to do to support him and make serious wedge in the meantime and ride the wave as it won’t last much longer

      True but in all reality Conor made it. He was the double champ, he fought Floyd, he made hundreds of millions, the fact that he even half way wants to fight again is a blessing and mind blowing. 99.9% of people would have rode off into the sunset and stayed gone.

      Conor is a showman but plays the heel. People either love a good heel or hate them. There's no in between.
      John get's heat from the haters by association. Guy is a 3rd degree BJJ black belt under Matt Thornton and has coached about a dozen fighters to the UFC. The criticism of him is absurd.
