Kavanagh no matter what the case is will always say McGregor is “better than ever”😂
He’s talking pure shite as per usual
One of the worst coaches ever
Conor truly needs a new coach and a team that's why he's getting knocked the fook out lately
He made to much money to care for a ufc paycheck an thats it .. people in ufc fight for money the belt is worth ppv points . Connor just doesn't have the passion he once did too many hungry lions in the fight game an some of those lions are starving @@kms08711
Nothing against John. Seems like a kind gent. But I get the vibes that mcgregor has a lot of yes man in his corner. They are either clueless or they are yes men. I don’t think they are clueless, so leaning towards yes men
well it got him to be double champ and he only lost against 3 fighters in the ufc and revenged beat 2 of them so he only lost to khabib without revenging it
McGregor gets knocked out inside of 30 seconds…..Kavanagh: “eh I saw nothing that I didn’t like in there”.
Comment section is madness... If anyone's seen him coach in person... Man is a proper coach...its a team game and i dont like to use genius easily but...... Excellent Coach and the opposite of a Yes man!
And in the end coach is there as help, you cannot create a fighter out of nothing. Conor was Conor because of himself not because of John who said the same repeatedly.
Delusional comment, kavanagh is an excellent coach true, but he’s a YES man who has said every time Connor is about to fight that he’s the ‘best version ever’ even tho he got KOd by Dustin when John was saying Connor is ‘better than ever’
Kavanagh is a horrible coach when coaching McGregor.
John's got himself some nice new Jurgen Klopp teeth.... They'd do damage to a ham and cheese sandwich
I would have them to, but I’m a fkn pussy and have no balls for dentist…. 😭😭😭
😂
Bro watch his interview with ariel helwani . He musta just had them done. You can tell he was uncomfortable with them lol and cause the camera was proper close they honestly looked way too big for him it was funny
Excellent work! Love this interview. Coach looking out for his fighters well being is great to see. Such a level head he has
Quality stuff as always Andy 💪
People are saying he always says Conor looks good, John is his coach, he’s hardly gonna come out and say he’s not in front of a camera you dopes, if he had to he would pull Conor to the side
Very good interviewing
The greatest return in combat sports history 👑
For Chandler maybe..lol
@@unstoppableplayz6948 His return and his exit, That shrimp will be a full time UA-camr by 2025
Thanks
Dude is successful in spite of Kavanagh. Not because. None of his others fighters have done well. He'll never be seen again when McG loses
He also can't handle Conor. Conor was a special fighter who has been mismanaged and exploited and allowed to indulge his excesses
@@oliverbird6914 imagine he was a Greg Jackson fighter...my god he'd be terrifying
@@user-yf8eq4ml4qyeah!! I feel like Conor needed a tough rough mentor. The man's barely controllable but kavanagh is too soft .
The money Conor will be bringing into the gym has compromised the whole team.
What were they thinking in that second poirier fight? The fight plan was diabolical
@@oliverbird6914 yep same with the Diaz fight, had been training for RDA so was throwing hooks & uppercuts in close while getting jabbed n slapped up from range. Khabib fight worried too much about the takedown he couldnt let go. The fact he fought porier so quickly after getting koed by him & had a fractured leg shows they're all yes men. He shouldn't have fought
@@user-yf8eq4ml4q great analysis! Conor realised after the khabib fight that he should've been on the offensive. It's the only way to fight khabib if you're a 155. Khabib shat himself when Conor came at him.
Conor did pretty well in khabibs world but kavanagh et Al got sucked into his brilliant but extremely one dimensional threat. No way would a switched on Conor have been hit without the ring rust and takedown threat mentality.
Shame Conor has got really unlucky in the last few fights. The pandemic, the bad advice, his own ego.
A Shane really. He was inspired on the way up
Honestly, u think he should retire and I'm a huge Conor fan . He's just been too compromised at this point.
Kavanagh should know this
He's right about amateur mma. My son does it and there's such respect and honour. It's tuff but safe at the same time. It's helped him through a difficult time and helped him develop some confidence.
Not sure 2 x 1 hour training sessions a day is enough when in fight camp???
Different fighters do it differently, GSP famously had short and few but extremely intensive workouts to prepare for fights
@tayzk5929 yes but mcgregornhasnt fought in 3 years.... u would think your prep would be more intense
@@RanjitSingh-vz7bb Its more than enough. This is MMA training sessions. You cannot do more than 2 hours of combat training anyway.
The human body can only handle so much. Try it for a few weeks and see hoe you feel
Overtraining is a thing
I see similarities John says to every fight Conor has ever been in
Conor looks sharp, Conor looks like old Conor. Smoke and Mirrors. BS
He might look sharp hitting pads and training but things are completely different in a real fight.
The thing is, A coach is not everything. Ultimately its dependent on the person who's fighting
John is a great coach. Comments shitting on him but John and Rowdy are the same coaches Connor came up with in the beginning. And we all knew how deadly he was back then. Ofcourse there is a pattern in what John is saying before the fights. At least he is not shitting on his fighters. I feel like the recent losses have more to do with Connor himself than his team.
Deadly stuff man, up the (real) Irish 💪🏻🇮🇪
Conor training the whole time in lambo-green in the backround is insane
I'm so glad Conor is back!!! I really hope he is all in! The UFC is just better with him around in my opinion!!
John seems like a super solid dude. Always positive
Chad Mendes wasn't training for 2 years for Conor
I think in referring to Mendes, John was making the comparison in styles and stature.
Yea he was juicing and still got smoked
@@johnreddington2957mendez is a midget, conor was a weight bully.
Conor didn't train for Mendes and had a torn ACL so it kinda evebed itself out. Fair result.
It's gonna be a test for Conor for sure
its his coach what do you expect him to say ? oh he's not sharp as before and shit on him ? mma fans and mma expert champions in the comments are the worst fans to have 😂
Class act.
Delusional coach put him in there with Khabib and broke his soul, put him in there with Dustin and broke his leg twice 👍
how do you plan to get him to stop drinking?
still talking about drinking after what ryan did lmao
@@_.008no, thats why the khabib fight went the way it did, he wasnt read . alcohol destroys motivation and health and conor is not the conor of old because of it among other things.
@@ASDJFHVGADJHBDAVHBAV that's probably thanks to a 2 year lay off he was in against an active champion who fought 3 times in 9 months prior to that
@@ASDJFHVGADJHBDAVHBAV look at colby against leon after just 1 year off... A complete different fighter
@@ASDJFHVGADJHBDAVHBAV Dustin and Justin both went less rounds combined than conor and no one talks about that
No one underestimates conor's ability to get back to his feet. It's how quickly he can get back to his feet when he's gassed. He pretty much can't once he's gassed.
THAT DUDE IS CRAZY LOOKIN
Memes was battering Mc GREGGOR BUT HAD SOMETHING LIKE 5 DAYS NOTICE AND completely gassed. Chandler is a different animal. More explosive and athletic than Mendez and more rounded
Memes? 😂
12 days notice for Connor who was preparing for a striking match against a muai Thai guy. You haters are braindead really
He gassed from all the body shots lol
John is a G
John Kavanagh is always the gentleman, you have to respect that aspect of him.
YAWN!!!!
How many times have we heard this is the best conor. The conor that beat alverez was the best. And that's 8 years ago. He's done a long time
Good to see Conors not looking thru Chandler. I hope he's taking this focus all the way thru into the octagon
Maybe similar opponents ,But the fighter is not the same . Money changes everything .
Lets go Conor 🐐🥊🥋
Hardest game ever all fighting sports
Kavanagh is clearly unenthused about Conor. He knows he’s done.
I don’t agree at all. Sounds more focused than unenthuastic
That's just jihns6 character dude. Always been like That
Imagine being this coach and watching conor blossom into a huge star and being there through conor’s uprise.. It would be so hard to continue coaching after that. He will never get another conor and will never experience anything like that again..Would kinda suck other ufc coaches have multiple guys that are stars.
Trevor Whitman, few more - special coach & fighter moment would be - Leon Edwards
Love John, ,Conor has his day.. he chose money over championships where he could have had both. …. He could have done so much better. I hated to see him lose to khabib. He should fight Islam or Holloway. The fight with Chandler is chandlers retirement fight. Fighters need to bring a character to their fighting… just like Conor.. a marketing genius who ever is behind his marketing… Great interview.. Paul Hughes is the next Conor
Conor won 5 belts 2 in cage worriors 3 in ufc conors money came while winning his belts an absoulute savage THE KING IS BACK
@@markbyrne8293 conpr boggiest pay day came fighting Floyd which took the sting out of the fight with kabob.. if he had fought khabib before Floyd would the outcome have been different?
Should be in a cell next to coner
10 days notice mendes was smashing mcgregor until he gassed
🤡
that was on 2 weeks and conor also fought him on 3 weeks notice while having a camp for a complete different 🤡style
Na he wasn’t. McGregor pieced him up on the feet so mendes was forced to shoot. Granted he did some damage on the ground but McGregor beat his spirit
Smashing mcgregor 😂😂😂 its embarrassing how much you hate him , go back and watch the fight ya jealous hater 😂😂
@@MrNiceGuy8922he was though?
Somehow I doubt that
Mendez didn't have a training camp for this fight... remember that when you rewatch the fight...
Hes not even old he should be in his prime now
35 is usually start of decline for lightweights.
@@mmaslav6176power is last thing to go, he still has that
@@frostyglaze484 Yeah but he never really had that much of a power at 155 and above. He KOed people at 145.
@@mmaslav6176 Dustin is durable, chandlers chin has been worn down from being dropped so many times
Came out with the same crap before Poirier bust him up twice
Bros relating to a fight from 9 years ago, in two weight classes down, in a completely different scenario. Conor was fighting like 2-3 a year at that point, and probably hadn't touched the sniff ever and Proper Twelve didn't even exist. Not to mention Chad Mendes was a 12 day notice, Chandler has been in a 2 year fight camp. Conor is doomed, JK has no success beside him and even Conor isn't aging well. You can tell he's a yes man.
Conors yes man
He actually isn't. Watch mcgregor forever
“No, Conor is slow as fuck. He’s finished” what else would he say about his cash cow
Come on John, you’re an intelligent guy.
You don’t really think Conor can whoop anyone any more do you??
How many times has this guy said this lol. He is a yes man and he gers paid well. So he's told what to say
Poirier 2, end of round 1, Kav didn't mention the calf kicks, leg destroyed. Sure, McGregor had been out for years, game changed... but Kav never left, yet didn't call it before the fight, nor during. Terrible coach.
lol, here we go again. “He’s focused as ever, he’s in better shape then ever, blah, blah blah”
This guy has never struck me as a coach but more of a yes man and a fanboy.
Also McGregors strength his entire career was his striking, which kabanagh cannot do. He literally struck gold with McGregor.
It was pretty telling when he was saying he was in awe of coaches like mark henry and the rest, he feels inferior to legit coaches because he has imposter syndrome knowing he’s not produced anything.
Another comment: Imagine mcgregor allowing his ego to go train with Duane bang ludwig who remembers when he 1st went to alpha male he had all them knocking out everyone setting up perfect blows and i think they went on 6 fight ko streak with him there but wouldnt happen so just wasted my time typing this shit
Loads of shitty comments but what other corners or coaches have won champ champ NOBODY
Better than ever though fucking hell🤣🤣🤣
There he is… the best paid yes man in Ireland! Surprised he never got into politics! McGregor my a55! 😂
keep yappin behind that screen
@@_.008 pipe down you harmless sheep
Technique yes is the will still there the fight the grit cos if not don’t bother
Kavanagh said Conor is sharp in previous pre fights and Conor lost 😂😂
Is Conor and John not on bad terms?
I won’t be surprised if chandler knocks conor out in the first round 😂😂😂
No way Conor is winning that fight and even if he does he's not getting through Islam or anyone that is taking it full time and actually has a lot of talent. If Conor was there the last few years full time it would be a different story...
Same aul shit talk out of him before a fight!! Conor could get smoked here 💯
John must of been turkey
Why!?
John always says Conor is better then ever. lol. Chad took the fight at short notice. He got tired but in round one he had Conor on the ground. If he had a full camp he prob would have beaten Conor and expose his lack of ground game. Chandler isn't Chad. He has a full camp and will know what to do. Also this is 170 Conor. Who gets tried after 1 round.
Seriously this is cringe…conor has had like 4-5 decent wins in his career and most were hand picked midgets…he is a great showman
Gas tank is what you need
Chandler by ko
Dont listen to anything Kavanagh says. He always says this stuff and then McGregor looks flat footed, lost his snap, puts in poor performance's.
He is either trying to con everyone or he is just deluded.
Yas are all keyboard warriors! How about everyone that has negative shit to say, get in the octagon with him and see how yas go!!! Non will!!
Kavanagh officially does not know how to be critical of Conors technique. You can't listen to shit out of his mouth on the subject
Said that against Mayweather,khabib,Dustin x2 and he got smoked he thinks his boxing approach is good when it just makes him easy to read and his leg is there to be hit Dustin was pointing at him as he knew he had him with the jab don't buy it he's just a yes man to mcgregor only good thing that came out his bum gym
I have thought this for ages . Having fought professionally myself . Most average fans don’t look at details . His footwork has become heavy and planted . When he was using a taekwondo /karate balls of the foot stance he was way harder to read and unpredictable to an opponent. He’s changed mma for the best . Still a massive fan but he’s focused on boxing instead of martial arts over the last few years . Saying that I’d still love to see him win another title
Kid.....everyone's taken losses. And that list you just spouted off are all elite fighters who's no shame in losing to. Plus we didn't get to see much from his last fight after the accident. With that being said he's likely gonna lose but still. You need to be fair
@@markroyds23 Father Time catches up with all of us . I was purely giving my insight from someone who competed for 20 years plus . I’m don’t know everything but I do have a decent knowledge. That being said the fighters he has lost to mayweather beating the greatest boxer for many years and the ufc fighters he lost to are the most elite in the game
@@markroyds23basically connor isn't as good as the marketing an hyped that surrounds him like ronda rousey
Ciarean Clarke (9-0)
Nathan Kelly (10-2, 5-0 in the PFL)
there are other good SBG fighters as well but can't remember them off the top of my head.
He blocked me online weirdo 😊
Conor should fight Chandler (win) then the winner of Islam and Dustin 100% win or lose that fight he should retire
🙄I highly doubt he’s as good as ever , I’m a fan but let’s be realistic
Drugs are great, for a short while.
Then you became an addict and everything quickly becomes the past.
The younger man will live forever.....the older man?
His Irish accent isn't even half as THiCC as Conor's
God bless our Irish brother John
Like Kav, but he is a yes man, spouting the usual BS about the best McGregor ever, etc. Shite gameplans for Mayweather, Khabib, and Poirier.
Yeah sure .. i put all my money on Chandler ..
Bollix
Connor should have changed the coach, this guy is no good
One trick John Kavanagh. Nothing after Conor, a stable of mediocre B level fighters.
What a tool. Is conor just as active as he was back then too? 🤡
Is it just me, or does john kavanagh remind you of Jim gavin. Both legendary coaches.
Years from now no one will remember John and I have no clue who the second guy is you mentioned which already tells you all you need to know lol
@stormblade1199 Jim gavin was the coach of the dublin gaa senior football team.
@@karlbyrne6021 Makes sense why I didn't know him then
I've not watched it all yet and already know what he's going to say
Kavanagh's a muppet.
What about the booz... and the happy powder... and AAAAAAALLLLLL the r-ape???
well, what about it? can you prove any of that?
It's all food for people like you to feed the engagement algorithm for Conor's heel persona and you all take the bait every single time! Keep it up - that's what helps push all videos up, marketing and ultimately PPV
@@kierenkd another close encounter with a mcgroober dickrider. Sheesh...
Coach is trash
lol says same thing every time can’t even Ben believe it anymore
Kavanaugh delusional as ever😂.
Follow the money Johnny, folliw the money.
