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

Yes, I think Masvidal fir the BMF is the fight to make, December ‘22 Las Vegas.

Sensible thing would be a fight against a decent top 10 fighter, If it goes well then he can aim for one of the top lads, I personally think his chin/heart is gone and he’ll fold at the first sign of getting hit in the face like poirier #2 fight

I don’t think that fight would really grab the worlds attention. If LW then either Ferguson or Chandler, or WW then either Masvidal or Diaz. I think I’d fancy Conor in any these except Chandler.

I said after the Mayweather fight he should have retired and still believe that. He was in it for money and got more than enough. The edge was gone after that.

Please no!

Difficult to imagine there'd be much appetite for a rematch. Would much rather see him fight Chandler or Ferguson

Who wants to see Mayweather beat up a more out of shape McGregor than before?

Anyone who pays for that fight needs their head examined

Bar the 2 lads looking for a payday who the hell wants to see that. Dana says he'd want to have dementia before he promotes it but Dana is the king of back tracking.

jesus i dunno if it keeps him from stepping into another title shot im all for it.

Definitely don’t wanna see another Floyd fight or any boxing match with Conor. Last time Conor took it as seriously as he has taken any fight, was in his ultimate fitness and condition shape, was totally ripped, and he looked like an amateur in the ring, which I guess he was. Hopefully we see him back in octagon in Dec or early 23.

I think the best thing about the last fight was the 4 presser events in lead up. Yep they were nasty and vulgar, but watching them live anything was possible to happen in that 1hr. I enjoyed them a lot.

I agree but i will say Dustin said in those two fights Conor hit him the hardest he's ever been hit before & he was buzzed in both of them,

He said in the first fight there was a moment that if Conor followed up he'd have got him out ,

McG did land one good bomb in the 2nd fight in R1 that sent Dustin slightly retreating, that definitely was a power shot and his best chance to get Dustin out of there.

He definitely has power when he does land at LW. Eddie felt that power and that guy's been in wars with other hard hitters and even finished Gaethje, but that was back when Conor had way better movement and technique.

If he has a comeback fight it will depend as much on how much he is properly invested and training as it will on his opponent. Being realistic even with his sub-par performances against Khabib and Dustin, the actual performances he put in are unfairly exaggerated by many.

He did as well against Khabib as Dustin or Gaethje did at least, and first rematch against Dustin was still competitive even though he looked worse than before, looked a bit more ropey in the third fight but not actually awful either, we all see far more one-sided fights even at the highest level regularly.

I hope Conor don’t get badly sunburned on his never ending summer hols and prevent him fighting any time soon.
