Conor McGregor Is A Marketing Genius

You wanna know how Conor McGregor turned into the biggest star the UFC has ever seen? How he convinced the world he could beat Floyd Mayweather Jr in a boxing match? How he created a whiskey brand so big he sold his majority stake in it for $600 million not even three years after launching? I'll tell you how: the man is a marketing genius.

This right here, despite being a measly little Instagram comment, is no different.

How do I promote my new movie ROAD HOUSE (starring Jake Gyllenhaal, Conor McGregor, Jessica Williams, Lukas Gage, and world famous singer-songwriter Post Malone, directed by Doug Liman, premiering on Amazon Prime Video on March 21st)?

Just drop a comment on Sydney Sweeney's latest Instagram post, promoting her movie out March 22nd - and let 'em know you're beating them to the punch.

Oh yeah? March 22nd? Well how 'bout this - our movie is out March 21st. One day earlier, and therefore one day better.

Conor McGregor does it again. That's why he's the GOAT.

P.S. UFC is on ESPN+ right now with a decent card at the Apex, and I've promised a shoey if Tai Tuivasa breaks his three-fight losing streak with a knockout tonight. Kinda regretting that promise the closer we get, but I will not break it - so maybe look forward to that later.
