He'd make less initially with the opportunity to make more. It's actually the same in lots of promotions. Guys will earn more being the big fish in the little pond.

He's something like 10-0 since losing to McGregor, albeit he moved down to FW. I think his main reason for not jumping ship is because he doesn't have great English and that is key to promoting yourself there. Fair play to him though, he's made a good living from it.

should sign him and give him the next shot at the 145 belt for a laugh... the meltdown on sherdog then! :D

Good to see Sergey out there with him presume he completes the corner with Roddy Danis and John, I trained with him before and I can honestly say I've never been as tired in my whole life wrassling is soul destroying.

is it just me or does he look very big in the first two minutes here, pre fight . If he fought like this he'd have it wrapped up in 30 seconds.

If he throws any of that spinning **** he'll be on his back for the rest of the round.

Confirmation Dee is pregnant imo, shes even sipping her herbal tea a prince is on the way people rejoice.

You can actually see her bump in a video one of the entourage put out by accident on Snapchat :pac:

I won't drop anybody in it but someone was a bit trigger happy with their camera of the views of Central Park and didn't notice Dee in the background lol.

Anyway, it's twins

Still to this day my favourite McGregor fight.

Such a varied range of attacks, techniques and intensities. It's crazy how much that fight has in it and the bell never rings...

Just before the KO is my favourite, 4 consecutive significant strikes; roll back left hook does the main damage, two straight lefts go right past his guard, then when he's dazed the knee connects solidly.

Then the absolute money shot, super shoulder roll with a perfect left cross. It's an absolute beaut, you couldn't coregraph a better series of strikes in a Jet Li movie.

maybe they conceived on the 16th fairway of the K Club lol. That'd be left-field behind his gaf haha.

As with all pregnancies, nobody should be spoiling this or jinxing this on them. First pregnancies are especially precarious. Dana should have kept his mouth shut. It's ALWAYS up to the parents-to-be to break news.

FFS the Irish Mirror are in retaliation mode for Conors comments about them lol. They just put up an article "Dee Devlin pregnant?".

Cowboy Cerrones finishing sequence against Rick Story was a thing of sheer beauty but you're right 155lb Conor looked lethal.

Is RDA V Fergie a #1 contender fight? Officially!

If Conor and Eddie have an absolute all-time classic war, the UFC could be keen to book the re-match regardless of who wins.

All depends how the next week plays out. Johnson might KO Khabib stiff, Cerrone might throw his hat into the ring, Nate Diaz is still waiting in the wings.

I think when it comes to Conor there is no such thing as a #1 contender - he basically picks who's next and the UFC bend to him. Especially under the WME/IMG regime - they could care less about rankings and belts. It's all about the big $$$ fights i.e. Conor v anybody. Throw Doink the Clown in against him it'd do big numbers.

Where does Conor go from here if he loses? 2 high profile loses in the calendar year would be a big hit.

I hope so,would love to see Khabib spitting the dummy out again,in saying that i am gonna have a little bet on Johnson,think Khabib is overated somewhat,and if i was to pick someone out of the top 10 to beat him i think Johnson would be near the front of the line,he has some of the best TDD plus excellent very fast hands.

Nope, Title Eliminators rarely happen anymore since Miesha Tate won one and Holm got the title shot!

I know this was probably tongue in cheek but its a funny one people use,

Holloway is bigger than him,Poirier is a wrecking machine at 155,Mendes Siver Brimmage are all pretty small fair enough but they make out he's towering off them,Nate Diaz's win over Conor means nothing in that case he only choked a midget so.

You used your 3,000th post to discuss midgets? :pac:

In all fairness, Conor never shied away from taller opponents in Cage Warriors or the UFC.

Height isn't everything either. Wonderboy is far, far taller than Woodley but i guarantee if Tyron connects with that right hand it's goodnight vienna.

Is there any chance they have heard the rumours swirling and are just having a bit of fun with people when its maybe not true?

Fair play to the loyalty in SBG for not running to The Sun with it a month ago. Would have been a few bob for an "inside source" to leak that. They did well to keep it an open secret away from the papers. You can tell Ariel knew weeks ago as well. I was told maybe 2 weeks ago thru' a friend of one SBG fighter that she's expecting twins 100% and just keep it under the oul' hat.

When people say they heard its twins it just sounds like a classic wind up to me,i mean nobody is even sure she is pregnant but yet there is a load of people around SBG are privy to her ultrasound.

Her baby bump was clearly visible on a snapchat story post earlier from one of the SBG entourage at the top overlooking Central Park.

Damn it how did we get back on to Dee is pregnant.

Quick let's switch topics - Floyd Mayweather and Conor, how realistic? lol. Please nobody answer that

Yeah probably,just the twins bit could easily have been a ruse by JK or Conor to expose some leaks from SBG.

To be fair she could be expecting quadruplets for all i know. I'm just indulging in hearsay and speculation which, of course, is a good idea lol.

Nate Diaz is gonna be an interesting ringside spectator for 205.
