McGregor Forever

Overall a good watch, particularly for fans of mma and the Irish. I gave it a 6/10, it's very introspective and really provides complete insider access to his day to day over the last 4 years or so.

My biggest knock and the reason it wasn't rated higher is it's too centric to the last 4 years. It could've been more of his youth and journey to the top and still be 4 episodes. Perhaps a quick walk through of each UFC match, and the screen shows his record getting better and better.

I wouldn't be surprised if they do another 3 or 4 episodes follow up in a couple years and I'd be game to watch it.

McGregor is very likeable in this. All sports fans have seen McGregor's famous press conferences and some of his sports highlights. This is a great insight into the behind the scenes of the most influential MMA athlete ever.

It's enjoyable to see McGregor act humble and normal outside of his press conferences. He is a hard working father. Even haters will likely see McGregor in a different light after watching this. I used to think that he was not very nice, but after seeing this miniseries I appreciate him. He is a phenomenal athlete, entertainer and father. Say what you want about him but he sells tickets.

The episodes are very well shot. Fighting rarely look more beautiful than this. McGregor's training, fighting, movement and agility are beautiful to look at. So this is why it's called martial ARTS.

Good stuff first - Mcgregor when he's a down to earth family man and honourable and humble martial artist is PEAK Mcgregor. I find the moments when he's a loving father and husband and just a normal person far better than when he acts like a glorified thug with money. The series covers a very interesting period in his life, basically post Mayweather when he had it all - a treat for superfans.

However this whole series just screams ego-project, and feels pretty revisionist.

Episode 1 completely downplayed Conors inexcusable antics during his Khabib rivalry and Dana is portrayed as almost sycophantic to him after the fight.

An interview said that the fight "bought out the worst" in Mcgregor and Khabib, as if Khabib's "worst" was somehow remotely on the same level. Mcgregor was essentially portrayed as just 'not being himself' instead of a completely unhinged maniac. He said and did some really bad things during the rivalry that just aren't shown here. Let alone his ridiculous Twitter activity.

Episode 2 also naturally ignores the fact that Cowboy was on a 2 fight losing streak before the fight and past his prime, but sure. The ep made the fight look a lot more competitive than it actually was, and basically made it look like Conor had overcome some sort of impossible odds, when in reality, the Cowboy bout was clearly put together to make Connor look good again.

Wasn't much to cover with ep 3, but ep 4 gives an interesting prelude to what led to his recent injury, despite yet again trying to excuse/cover up his bizarre behaviour pre and post fight against Dustin Poirier.

Overall this series won't do much to win back lost fans, but those who are still on the Mcgregor train will probably get a good kick out of this. Just go in knowing the facts aren't all there and that naturally, Khabib, Cerrone and Dustin's perspectives are totally nonexistent.

Yea yea it may be inspirational at times. But what it also is incredibly repetitive as they use Conor's interviews where his thoughts really repeat on cycle. It's not like the guy is full of clever quotes and deep thoughts.

Also, it's selective in it's approach in covering the events. It's magnifying some that the producers want to emphasise and diminishing other events they're not too keen on. It's not a documentary, it's a subjective Conor promo movie that lacks the impartial view of things. In the end you're left wondering what was the point of this 4 eposode docuseries and why did they stop there.

This just shows how stuffed up he was turning into to his last 2 fights. Man's leg was already gone before he entered the fight. He wasn't lying! Hate him or love him there is only one Conor Mcregor! Money or spoils of war doesn't determine his passion for the sport.

Hope he really comes out of this dark side of his life. Good luck to chandler he is really getting a monster this time. Win or lose everyone just can't keep their eyes of him.

The mini documentary really has covered the most of his aspects of his life from 2018 to his last fight, From babies to never seen raw footages of after his fight losing ends. It's a well done documentary! With lots of unseen footage.
