He is the guy they are using to get into a new country for additional eyes. Nothing special in my eyes, good striker, but the UFC has hand picked his opponents to increase his chance of success and have avoided giving him a fighter with any wrestling background (Most (not all) European fighters can't wrestle well) like their life depended on it.

He will have a hard crashing down soon, but apparently he has some fans that are excited by him.

No. Poirier for example was not hand picked.

That fight for sure put McGregor on the map and showed he is for real.

Poirier had the most wins in the FW division at the time and was ranked number 5 FW in the world.
