If McGregor still has any desire or bottle then he should accept the Tony Ferguson fight.

What does that fight get him? He is next up for a title shot right now. If he fights Ferguson the only thing that can happen just is he loses that title shot.

He'd be insane to take that chance when there's a multi million dollar fight in his future.

Coward talk and easy excuse.

Mcgregor has said himself he would one day take out Tony and now is his chance. All this "my season" talk was all talk it seems.

Fighting the winner of Khabib/Justin is cowardly?

The Ayatolla · 30-07-2020 12:48am

Equally as embarrassing for Kavanagh who was harping on about this cringey "season" as well. Good god. Pure PR jibberish talk.

Still Ill · 30-07-2020 9:08am

It's still only the end of July. A season is still achievable for him if the will is there. (Which it almost certainly isn't). He could fight Tony in October and then the winner of that be penciled in to fight for the belt.

In reality, what'll happen is he'll have wasted another of his peak years by fighting the grand total of one can.

Bit insulting to call Cerrone a can

It never fails to give me a chuckle when someone on a discussion forum decides to call someone who fights in a cage for a living "cowardly".

chopperbyrne · 30-07-2020 4:01pm

Had a it not been for the pandemic, I'm sure he would have already fought again this year.

Don't blame him for not wanting to travel to an empty arena to fight.

US2 · 30-07-2020 10:41pm

Looks like he will fight Tony. Hopefully he's serious would love to see that fight and I think Conor gives Tony a really bad beating

So who does he accept against?

Still Ill · 30-07-2020 11:43pm

He accepts Twitter attention.

dave1982 · 31-07-2020 8:48am

He'd a hangover fighting khabib now aswell

bmcc10 · 08-08-2020 2:34pm

It's interesting to hear Javier Mendez say that McGregor is the toughest match up for Khabib from Poirier, Ferguson and Gaethe.

Now now now. Envy isn’t a nice trait. I’m sure there’s a nice woman out there for you too.

Khabib wants the GSP fight next but if it can`t be made he will fight whoever beats Poirier be it McGregor or Ferguson

On the topic of dicks getting attention, I read the Pauli Mallignaggi training fight is coming to Netflix in a 3 part documentary presumably by end of the year after production wrapped up in July. Some stories coming out from people who were there saying it went exactly as McGregor tells it has me believing they are reviving the story to create some hype before the Netflix release.

billybonkers · 14-09-2020 11:06am

There is a Netflix doc on the Pauli training.....

simongurnick · 18-09-2020 2:00am

Dana saying on espn tonight they are talks with conor for some "fun stuff" in early 21

:rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes:

Diego Sanchez? Haha.. Worse than the Cowboy fight. I'm almost certain he said he was ready to hop in as a replacement for the Tony Khabib fight.. Correct me if I'm wrong though.

Do you think there's any chance that they don't want to give him a big name until the fans are back in?

25-09-2020 11:31pm

Hmmm, wonder if he's trying to establish cause for a "free me to box w/out Zuffa-UFC" clause/release argument? ie showing intent to fight named fighters etc? Going full on Dana like that usually doesn't end terribly well or bode well for future relationship with UFC

Maybe
But Dana mentioned recently he'd announce something big for boxing soon and also something for conor too. Could be conor drumming up some publicity too. Either way, a manny fight would make huge dough even without fans in attendance. And maybe there could be fans in the middle east..
