If he was knocked out, it's a bad news

The UFC 205 fight between Conor McGregor and Eddie Alvarez has got the fans hyped big time. And this hype is the reason why a mere rumor about Conor being knocked out during training turned into a big talking point on the internet. Conor immediately posted a photo on Instagram where his nose, which was said to be broken in the rumors, seemed pretty fine.

His team also reacted to the rumors suggesting that it was not true but arguments came up against this saying that no fighter would admit getting knocked out ahead of such a big fight. Knocked out or not, Conor was in the news due to this and finds a place in this list as well.
