Official Conor McGregor thread (part 3) *Updated Warning in 1st Post Re:Boxing match
The last thread was nearing the 10k post limit so here's part 4.

The same rules as the last thread apply here. People seem to have strong opinions either way when it comes to McGregor and threads here tend to get a bit heated from time to time. Please keep it civil and discuss all things Conor in a mature way.

Any name-calling, trolling, baiting, or being a general ass-hat will earn you a ban from the thread and possibly the forum.
If you have an issue with a post, please use the report post function.

Any off topic posts will be deleted.
Any "Do you even train Bro?" or "I'm an mma fan longer than you" type posts are not permitted either. They only make you look like a fool and as a result, everyone hates you. Yes everyone.

**Upate with Mayweather vs McGregor announced**

Lads consider this the one and only warning - big fight with a lot of hype around it. It brings new fans to the forum as well as the regulars so try and get along. Any trolling or nonsense and people will find themselves on a break from the forum and that applies to everyone.

Khabib v Nate is a fight I don't ever see mentioned, would love to see it. There grappling styles would make it very interesting.

Edit: just see jamiekellys post.

Nate would get rag-dolled. See Nate v RDA or Nate v Rory. Granted both of those are better strikers than Khabib but the Diaz's don't fare well against wrestling at all.

I'd love to see Holloway get a shot with ferguson and Lee unavailable for December and khabib unlikely to make the cut safely. Hes grown so much as a fighter since their last meeting when he was pretty young, would be a great match up imo.

Would love to see Khabib vs Nate at 155.

Would have loved Ferguson vs Nate but Nate just pissed and whinged about money.

It's a shame because I like to watch him fight.

Gamebred

He done nothing but bitch and follow Conor like a fly on ****e since 202 turning up at his fights smacks of desperation as a Diaz fan im finally sick of the pair of them and the thug act its boring now fight or gtfo.

I think the Diaz fight will be next but I don't think Nate deserves it really and hope he gets finished. He's living off those two fights with Conor and then doesn't bother with his own career until there's another chance to fight Conor.

Trust me. Announcement by the end of September. Full press tour, the 4th quarter promotion push will be built around that card being their biggest ever, will draw on the pride new years cards for promotion inspiration. The deal is done bar the specifics.

Can I ask how you got this information? You can PM me if you like. Id really consider heading over for it. I'd get cheaper flights before it's announced.

I'd like to see Khabib and then maybe the winner of Ferguson/Lee. It would be nice to see Max Holloway get a shot too.

I'm not crazy about another Diaz fight or another Aldo fight.

I don't think Conor would do well against Woodley or in another boxing bout against a top tier super welterweight or Middleweight.

Above all I'd like to see McGregor fight in Ireland,

Never gonna happen for tax reasons. He fights in Vegas and pays 10-12% tax, fighting in Ireland, it would be closer to 50%

Ah come on McG is a brand and he has to keep the hype up so he needs excuses after all the sh1t he talked about Flyod. Saying I was beaten by a 40 year old smaller guy with brittle hands doesn't really cut it for the % of McG fans who love the hype and bullsh1t.

He doesn't need excuses he put on a great show.

Diaz is obviously looking for his final huge paycheck, I doubt he'd even take the fight seriously, honestly hope he never fights him again.

Ferguson/Lee winner, Khabib and Gaetjhe are the only fights at lightweight that interest me and then Woodly if he decides to move up.

Muahahaha

Classy post on Instagram from McGregor earlier but frustrating none the less now that he is saying the prep for the fight wasnt right.

For me that much was obvious last March, April & May when he seemed to be on a bender. Fair enough the fight hadnt been made at that point but you would have thought that with such a big potential fight on the horizon in a sport he never had a professional fight in before it would have demanded a much longer camp than the 10 weeks they gave it. I know there is such a thing as camp burnout but I also thought he needed longer to learn boxing and improve cardio. I feel he really should have been taking the Mayweather fight seriously long before it was ever contracted and if the fight didnt happen then what of it, no big loss, skills and cardio gained.

Its disappointing to hear him now say that 10 weeks wasnt enough when its in the past and theres nothing that can be done about it now. Id say he will regret the camp and will always be wondering what could have been. Maybe a longer camp wouldnt have made any difference to the outcome but the not knowing must eat him up because he cant get that time he had on his hands in March, April & May back.

Diaz is the easy fight to keep the hype train going

Add more kicks + more cardio = piece of pisss.

Conor wouldn't have a hope in hell of beating Woodly. Woodly has huge power, insane cardio, amazing wrestling and most importantly, when going against McG, he sticks to a game plan.

He'd prob be the only fighter that could make a fight vs Conor boring.

He likes to fight with his back against the fence though which is the only thing I can see going against him, he'd get picked apart if he did that.

That fight won't be made. Simple fact is he can't be trusted to make weight.

Farce if they fight for the belt while Tony or Kevin Lee are walking round with an interim.

I've been saying since the night of the fight.

If Nate had been active, I'd say he'd have had a better chance of commanding what he's looking for.

Not fighting since McGregor, and being arseholey with the UFC, won't have the legs to command anywhere near that much.
