Conor McGregor, popular as The Notorious, is considered one of the most influential names in MMA. Recently, he was seen provoking Jeremy Stephens into a fight after the latter won Knuckle Mania V. Conor is often known to instigate other wrestlers for fights at a later date.
Jeremy Stephens won the latest BKFC Knuckle Mania fight against Eddie Alvarez at 3-0. BKFC's co-owner, Conor McGregor, approached Stephens asking him to fix a date for a fight. Except, he said it with a lot more drama than was perhaps needed: "Who's going to stop me?" Well, nobody was even thinking of stopping him in the first place!

That's surely a pun you may or may not see coming. McGregor has been involved in several controversies, personal and professional. His history of beefing seems to have earned him the wordplay.
That's all (via remikhanczynMMA/X)
The passion with which Conor came at Stephens, fans expected more than just agreeing to the match. Come on, they could have at least revealed some more information. The hyped countdown was for nothing!
Sometime in near future (via BasedSierra117/X)

Here's another fan-made title for the UFC fighter. Seems like the audience has stopped taking Conor seriously at this point. Then again, you never know! He might be planning his next moves carefully.
WWE Villain? (FishermanFred23/X)
Conor as a WWE villain sounds cool, right? He might just do justice to the character. The number of people who've lately been critical of his gimmicks, however, would seem to imply he's already close to being one. Not all villains need to dress up dark, some just show up in a funky blue shirt that looks like curtain!
Main character syndrome (via CFCSTEVE34/X)
Conor is often seen courting the limelight. His mannerisms often come off as what fan reaction has described as "Main character syndrome," or the trait in him that drives him to be the center of attraction. It wasn't a few minutes after Jeremy Stephens' victory that McGregor tried to steal the spotlight by throwing the challenge.

Let's take our minds off Conor McGregor for a while and appreciate the legendary win of Jeremy Stephens, or Lil Heathen, in Knuckle Mania V. In his 15 years as an MMA fighter, Jeremy has fought in UFC, PFL, BKB and now, BKFC. The Stephens-McGregor rivalry has taken several turns, especially during a 2015 press conference, where Conor pretended not knowing about Jeremy. A final face-off could actually settle it!
