"It Happens In Fire" - Conor McGregor 

Guy has talent in every sense of word, hate him or love him there is no denying that

*Connor McGregor.* Hate him or Love him. He is one in a lifetime guy, whether you speak MMA. Everybody knows this guy. You will not see anybody like him for 100 years. Just appreciate what he brings.

Mindsmash the GOAT of informative, and inspiring analysis.

Paraphrasing a chinese proverb, " life is like riding a BICYCLE, to have balance, you must move forward". Mr. McGregor speaks volumes by how he lives, without saying a word. Thank you mind smash, once again your sage wisdom has not gone unnoticed.

This is what i like about Thai fighters actually, broken day by day everyday just be rebuilt stronger and be forged by fire. Never complain. Fall down and get up again but never say never and never quit!

Conor for me is the goat. Such an inspiring man with such wisdom and such skillset in the ring. He is my absolut idol, one day i will be like him.

When Conor fought Nate for the first time, he was a 145'er fighting a 170 guy. Let that sink in. It is like Alexander Volkanovski fighting Usman right now. And still Conor didn't complain.

"To be a leaf blown about in the wind or to be the wind." Wow theres a lot of beauty in words in this piece beautiful work Mindsmash.

Honestly I hated conor for so long but recently ive realised I was hating myself for not chasing my dream and taking it out on people who had my dream. massive respect, i hope one day you’ll all see me soon. Im working hard every single week for my dream.

I miss the old Conor. Hope that guy comes back

First of all, your videos are In the S tier of mma RU-vid. Don’t stop brother. I’d just like to add that while you’re partially correct that martial arts in Ireland, to the world was non existent. But Ireland has been building their fight scene for centuries. They just never found that platform until Conor broke the glass ceiling. Much love G

Never backed out of any fight regardless of injury or circumstances, Unlike other fighters who would pull out of fights at the drop of a hat, I can think of one that backed out of multiple fights and never taken a short notice fight.

That beat is fire 🔥🔥😂 great video as always!

He's done a lot for the sport. Brought a lot of attention to the game. Maybe the fans or people who dislike him will admit that, but every member of UFC knows this.

I’m not a casual, but I’m a Conor fan. His striking, mentality, ethic, I’m a fan of it all.

That Ali quote at the end hit me.

From struggle comes strength. Great piece mind smash!

“A dog once sat on a nail... he cried and winged but the nail didn’t hurt him enough to make him move”. Through suffering we become stronger and also smarter. That quote has so many layers and meanings to it but to me it means that only through times of turmoil do we become better, smarter individuals.

👌🏽👌🏽👌🏽👌🏽👌🏽 100%....Such a powerful message in this video...I needed it today👊🏽👊🏽

Mindsmash bromance continues

Found the pain quite humbling, you know the self is defined by the struggling

Best fighter breakdown channel on the tube. Soothing vocals and amazing content. MindSmash, we thank you, keep it up and give ya self a pat on the back sir.

your videos are pure art bro. thank you for doing this.

I am going through alot with covid and university. This video game me strength. Thank you my friend and greetings fron Bosnia and Herzegovina.

You're a legend brother. So many perspective, so much metaphors ❤️🙏 And that FREAKING VOICE🔥🔥

If only conor knows the impact he have on my life. Hope one-day I can inspire others and touch lives in the same way.

Why do your videos always hit me so hard, I appreciate your job, and always be grateful for this youtube channel, keep going

Wow! Great video! Thank you for posting! Made me cry no lie

Gotta love how Conor haters say he didnt do anything to floyd if conor landed a double upper cut to a left hand instead of that solo bolo uppercut we wouldve seen a new champ.

This poetry is legendary.

I’d love to see a show where different fighters from different fighting styles and arts who have actually perfected and own there craft, fight each other

Beautiful, MindSmash. That last line gave me shivers

It was all fine and dandy until his foot was a balloon.

Always was and will be one of the most talented fighters definitely at the top of the list

I am in such a great place mentally, with my training and my life in general. Positive inspiring content to help ride out the highs longer and prepare to grind through the lows.. Thank you.

Mind smash will be remembered as the greatest

*Perfect title drop at theend there my dude!* 🥋🌋

Conor got his Mindsmashed by Khabib

You never fail to inspire me.

Very well said. Thanks for your Channel!

These videos are straight FIRE. Thank you.

Got me with the wisdom teeth comparison... Just had all 4 pulled that sh!# did not feel good. Finally can train again today!

I'm going to listen to this video every single morning

Many people in the comments section are so captivated by the person of Conor McGregor that they've missed the lesson in this video and hence wasted 5:22 mins of MindSmash's and their own time. If you're talking about how great Conor is or even how bad he is, you've completely missed the point. This video is *not about Conor McGregor* ; it's about the need for suffering/adversity for us human beings to grow. It's about learning from the unfairness in life rather than seeking safe spaces.

Mind smash is my drug now straight monk mode🙏💓

This is what I needed.

Awesome video Love the content 🗣️

I appreciate what you do! Thank you for the mental strength!!

Youve got such a way with words 🙏

Thank you key holder in this Matrix! This is exactly what I have been thinking about lately, I haven't eaten mushrooms in several months, but boy does the connection and interesting thoughts really last!

Hey Bro, do you, or anyone here know the name of the video, where Conor is in the background and u are telling a story that there are no beautiful surfaces without terrible depths? And how reality is paradoxical, and that we will shine if we don't let the string snap? Thanks

I feel like I just got hypnotized

Yeeeelllooooo..Love him or hate him (and I reckon you love him) he transcended a sport and became a sort of icon, but I would not say he has shown the values that perhaps a true icon like Ali displayed, but then perhaps that is more fitting and says more about the times and the society we live in now, where the perception of grateness is perhaps very different.

Love the content! @mindsmash Would you be able to do a video on the up and coming featherweight Mean Hakeem Dawadu?

Another amazing video by....... mindsmash who..... always delivers.... great content.

Thank you

Great Video 🙏🏼

I was watching the video and thought "damn, this sounds very Nietzschean" and then you hit me with that quote towards the end so I will put a few more quotes of the man in regards to this same topic. "To live is to suffer, to survive is to find some meaning in the suffering." "To those human beings who are of any concern to me I wish suffering, desolation, sickness, ill-treatment, indignities - I wish that they should not remain unfamiliar with profound self-contempt, the torture of self-mistrust, the wretchedness of the vanquished: I have no pity for them, because I wish them the only thing that can prove today whether one is worth anything or not - that one endures." "That which does not kill us makes us stronger." “The discipline of suffering, of great suffering-know ye not that it is only this discipline that has produced all the elevations of humanity hitherto? The tension of soul in misfortune which communicates to it its energy, its shuddering in view of rack and ruin, its inventiveness and bravery in undergoing, enduring, interpreting, and exploiting misfortune, and whatever depth, mystery, disguise, spirit, artifice, or greatness has been bestowed upon the soul-has it not been bestowed through suffering?” “In man creature and creator are united: in man there is material, fragment, excess, clay, dirt, nonsense, chaos; but there is also the creator, the sculptor, the hardness of the hammer, the divinity of the spectator, and the seventh day - do you understand this contrast? The body must be fashioned, bruised, forged, stretched, roasted, and refined - it is meant to suffer.” “You want, if possible - and there is no more insane “if possible” - to abolish suffering. And we? It really seems that we would rather have it higher and worse than ever. Well-being as you understand it - that is no goal, that seems to us an end, a state that soon makes man ridiculous and contemptible - that makes his destruction desirable. The discipline of suffering, of great suffering - do you not know that only this discipline has created all enhancements of man so far?” "all that guarantees a future - involves pain.” "My Dog. I have given a name to my pain, and call it "a dog," - it is just as faithful, just as importunate and shameless, just as entertaining, just as wise, as any other dog - and I can domineer over it, and vent my bad humour on it, as others do with their dogs, servants, and wives." "The snake which cannot cast its skin has to die. As well the minds which are prevented from changing their opinions; they cease to be mind."

Thank you mindsmash for this lesson.

Amen!

Interesting video

Inspired nice video

Great video mate

This video is amazing. Great message ❤

good start to a week

Beautiful video.

Got a full documentary from a different perspective of conor check it out

This content is 🔥

Is conflict an a priori good, in and of itself...or is it what we do with conflict to create something good from it which deserves the merit?

Love. It.

I remember the days before 100k. Thank you Conor thank you mind smash

I swear I think something and then I see it on this guys channel. It's been happening for like the past few months now. It really is bizarre but I'm listening...

You once mentioned a clothing brand on your channel...could u or anyone reading this comment remind me of what it was called? I believe it’s designs were inspired my samurai etc Thanks

Thank you, be successful in you endeavours....

That was well picked music

it does'nt happen in cold...it happens in fire🙌👍

I’d pay good money for an audiobook of Mindsmash, reading the top life inspiring books 🙏

Wow

Mindsmash what would have happened if floyd didn't hit conors shoulder before that upper cut

Needed this fck the haters life is not a strait path......we can only hope to move parallel in it

McGregor is my Favorite Fighter

Can’t wait until you do the analysis on his last fight with dustin

@MindSmash Looks like you read David and Goliath by Malcolm Gladwell. Excellent 👌

Everyone hates on Conor these days… but I remember when people thought he was unbeatable. Those are your casual fans. I still respect this guy for what he’s done for the sport of MMA!!!

Lot of Americans could use this mentality rn.

you should make this for dustin cause he bounce back from his losses very vell

Uncle Chael inspired this video! Guaranteed!

It happens in Ice - Khabib Nurmagomedov .

If McGregor was behaving like this to anybody other than straight up killers, we would call him a bully

Mind = Smashed

Hello mind Smesh

Connor do f'up thing but as a fighter i think he do great

This is the old Conor

I like the way you talk, mmhmmm.

👆

Someone has been listening to jrr

I personally wouldn’t buy a Connor fight at this point it’s all hype I’ll catch the highlights for free

You fight win or lose at least you fought

I think he complained about the camp after the Khabib fight?

Anybody here a year later
