Popular YouTuber slams Conor McGregor Netflix documentary in scathing review

Popular YouTuber True Geordie (real name Brian Davis) has slammed Conor McGregor's Netflix documentary after it hit the streaming platform last week.

And Davis was not the biggest fan of the series. Speaking on The Pain Game channel, which has amassed over 470,000 followers, he said: "I am going to be brutally honest on what I thought of this documentary and it's funny because I got a DM off a hater saying how dare you slag off Conor McGregor when his coach came on your podcast.

"Conor McGregor's performances got worse. The things he did outside the octagon got worse. My opinions will reflect reality.

"I won't say I will always get it right but I always wanted Conor McGregor to win every fight and wanted him to conduct himself in a great way and be an inspiration and he was an inspiration to me at one point.

"My main criticism of this documentary is I really did not watch it feeling we got inside the mind of Conor McGregor.

"What you're looking for is what is he thinking and what is he really going through. Yes you get a little snippet here and there.

"With McGregor, part of the reason they use so many punditry clips is there is so little of him giving to the camera.

"They did their best with what they had but they should have had more. This was a documentary about him but it feels like he was barely involved in the process."
