I knew a bit about Conor's history in the UFC so I was somewhat surprised so much of the negative is included here: from the attack on the bus that injured several people, to his community service, to his string of recent losses, and the personal moments just after those losses, there's more of the bad than you usually get in a modern documentary so it's not your typical fluff piece regardless of what some people that hate him claim.
That said, it does skip over some of his more controversial trash talk with Floyd Mayweather and Khabib Nurmagomedov. In fact the entire Doc takes place between Khabib and Portier 3 so four fights total, with a few flashbacks to his "glory days".
All in all, more informative than I expected and a better than average deep dive on the mind of a fighter at McGregor's level. It's popular these days to trash anyone on a losing streak and pretend they were never that great to begin with which is just ridiculous when it comes to McGregor. Hate his attitude, but don't kid yourself, his legacy as one of the greatest fighters that's ever lived is very secure. But I get it, I don't care much for Khabib, but there's no denying the man's skill.
Solid Doc to put in your Wok.
