@CanadianOracle,

I'll take your word for it he's a show boat in general, but during the fight he wasn't mugging or putting his hands behind his back or anything (could also be due to aggressive opponent). You're right about Conor and Wonderboy. But If say Conor has been pretty lucky with the wrestlers he has faced, and Wonderboy is an all-time great striker in my book. And he too has trouble solving a guy like Tyron, which he wouldn't have if not for T-Wood's wrestling base. But your point is valid in that O-Malley could still go right near the top with the base he has. Just not sure it'll get him past a TJ, Cody, or Cruz.

The way you describe him he sounds like Till. I think a big reason they talk like that is to convince themselves it's true, to keep the confidence sky high. Add to that how far Conor got with that shit, and it becomes extremely appealing to be a cocky trash talker with fun-to-watch striking. I think those guys will find the market for that rather saturated though. It will swing back around and people will like a guy like Max more. Conor's kind of success/career will be a one-off. No one else is gonna fight Floyd for $100 mil. :P
