Conor McGregor thread (MMA Talk Only - Read 1st Post Before Posting)

His heart isn't in fighting anymore but he has so many business interests they would plummet without his continued dipping his toe into it. If he never fought again, he would disappear into obscurity and his products with it. He's hitting pads in Tom Ford trainers and wearing a top of the range rolex, like who does that? Its all image.

Cerrone was the perfect opponent for his return, a big name who was finished.

Even then when it comes to those sort of fights no obvious wins, Nate has been a little more active when it comes to UFC so I fancy him no mater the weight class, Masvidal murders him also.

I know some suggested Tony Ferguson but that ship has sailed with him fighting Chandler.

Dan Hooker is not a walk in the park. I mean yeah his return to featherweight was abysmal but against a stand-up guy like McGregor he will have as good a shot as he's ever really had at winning.

He went through a five round war with Porier and almost finished him as well. It would be a good fight.

Masvidal does seem like the fight to make. Neither are title challengers, big PPV stars, Conor put on a lot of bulk.

If we think about it logically all his weak points have become weaker & his strong point's have all but gone ,

He will be embarrassed if he fights a top 10 WW,

He had a real chance to be an MMA great if he stayed at 145 , That was his weight class ., like Khabib knew lightweight was his weight and stayed in his lane,

Now of course you can't knock it because in the end of the day its prize fighting and he became the greatest prize fighter MMA has ever seen in regards to making money,

He drew 1.2m for his first fight with Usman and the rematch wasn't far off 1m. Who else outside of Conor is hitting those numbers?

Masvidal is a big star, and does attract PPVs.

Between him and McGregor, they must of lost 7 of the last 8 fights combined.

So Charles called him out. Thats the fight to make. McGregor will be tapping in 2 minutes to him.

Charles could have a Dilemma on his hands, get paid or get a title shot.

Ideally the UFC would like to do both, Charles V Conor, Win Win for Charles, gets his title back and makes more money than ever

I doubt the UFC have topped 500k PPV this year(maybe the past weekend). a Conor V anybody should hit that.

Conor V Charles for the vacant belt, would get 800+ id think

although on the flip side they made 1Billion from April 21 - March 22

So who needs Conor

Should he even be ranked? 0 wins in the LW division since 2016

I’d like to see Conor take on Khabib’s boy Islam. Be interesting to see how he interacts with Khabib. Although I expect if his next fight is LW it will be vs Ferguson, if WW it will be Diaz.
