What chances do you lot think McGregor has of winning the title? December 2014 is too close imo but another 2/3 strong performances against ranked opposition and he surely would be in with a shout of a title shot.

3/1 to win any UFC belt at any stage in his career.

Seriously bad odds. He'd be bigger odds than that in a fight v Aldo alone

Thought it was fairly short as well.

That's true but he could lose a title fight and the bet could still win.

Here is the first one, interview with Joe Rogan about Conor

Skittlemon · 20-03-2014 12:47am

Say what you want about Rogan being bias and towing the company line against the tide of the fight while colour commentating, but damn can that man wax lyrical about MMA! Great little interview Severemma

Lenin Skynard · 21-03-2014 2:09am

I think Cat Zingano has her eye on that interviewer :pac:

It was too hard for developers to have him running away around all the time so he was happy to settle for this.

Cannot believe i did not come across this article earlier but seems to indicate that Aldo puts McGregor in the top five.

Dont know whether to believe Aldo said that or not, he seems to be giving Conor a lot more credit than the rest of the division !!!

http://www.insidemma.com.au/news/571-jose-aldo-i-should-face-chad-mendes-next

Jose Aldo: I should face Chad Mendes next

Jose Aldo is keen on a rematch with Chad Mendes after conceding that a superfight with UFC lightweight champion Anthony Pettis is perhaps not an option for the near future.
With Pettis announced to coach against Gilbert Melendez on an upcoming edition of The Ultimate Fighter, current UFC featherweight champ Aldo was left without an obvious choice for the next challenger to his belt.
Speaking with fans during a Q&A in Natal, Brazil, Aldo shared his thoughts on who he thought should get the next shot.
“I’m focused again on my division and I think I should face Chad Mendes. He’s a guy I’ve already fought, but I must respect him, stay humble and keep my feet on the ground. I will train hard to win one more time,” said Aldo.
“Chad Mendes is first in line… Cub Swanson, who is a guy I already beat, is second, and he’s evolving a lot. There’s also Jeremy Stephens, who is very good. There’s an Irishman [Conor McGregor] who has also been talking a lot and could be a good fight. And also, there’s Dustin Poirier. I think those are the top five at the moment.”
Aldo emphatically knocked out Mendes in their first fight with a brutal knee. He famously celebrated by running into the overjoyed Brazilian crowd after the fight was stopped.

Conor certainly has made a big impact in the UFC and there seems to be a huge amount of jealousy invloved in the call outs he is getting.

Amazing that Conor is such a big scalp already!

It's a year since his debut. He's been called out by at least 5 or 6 flyweights. Maybe more that I'm not aware of. Nobody else in the division, besides maybe Aldo, has made that sort of impact.

That_Guy · 13-04-2014 11:08am

Just watching Fight Night Abu Dhabi. Spoiler Alert:

Clay Guida called out Conor after his fight. Think he called him a "cave man with a mullet" or some such. :pac: Not sure why he'd want Conor given he's still in contention for a title shot.

Believe it or not but now I'm starting to think fighters think if they put Conor away it will move them way up the ladder compared to other fights.Maybe they see Conor as a easy road to a title shot.Although

Clay

did say he wanted Conor to have a fight or two more before fighting some one with experience.

It it amazing how Conor is such a big name after 2 fights in the UFC.
