Nov 13, 2016 The biggest fighter in the world. Next fight has to be at Croke Park. Ireland should get some of the revenue considering over 10,000 are traveling to the US for his fights.
Nov 13, 2016 Do you think he would be able to hang? I'm as big a fan of McGregor as the next guy but that would be one h--- of a challenge
Nov 13, 2016 Great fight from Conor. Should stay off Woodley though. Would absolutely k--- him, not Conors weigthclass. It wasn't even Diaz weightclass in the first place. Khabib should be his next fight, even though I am quite sure he will avoid this, because Khabib's ground game is on whole nother level and he would batter Conor with it. Probably will fight Diaz or Ferguson next I THINK:
Nov 13, 2016 Maaaaan that was some solid, clean wook from McGregor. Gutted for the Chris and Wonderboy but 205 definitely lived up to the hype.
Nov 13, 2016 Only way McGregor fights in Dublin is if its in the American PPV time slot (see UFC 204) and i'm pretty sure there is some type of curfew that won't allow them to run a show that late. Plus the weather factor.
Nov 13, 2016 Nah, Woodley is too big and explosive for him. Diaz is tough as h--- but you saw how Conor's shots weren't as impactful with the added weight. But it seems like the UFC would explore allowing him to be the first fighter to challenge for 3 titles if he really wanted to. He definitely makes them a lot of money but I'd like to see a title defense now and not a trilogy of Nate Diaz. I'd be frustrated if I was Aldo at this point to. He'd have a chance with the stand up against Khabib. MJ rocked Khabib though MJ has some pretty quick hands. I do believe though if Khabib got a hold of him he'd be f-----. Khabib pushed and ragdolled Johnson like he was nothing. It was like watching DC verse Dan Henderson all over lol.
Nov 13, 2016 So for both of those match ups all he needs to do is not get hit once by Woodley for 25 minutes and lay out Khabib in 30 seconds. Sounds like great odds
Nov 15, 2016 Agreed Conor needs to drop the FW belt, he's leagues ahead of everybody in that division and it would be a waste of everyone's time if he continued fighting down there. I think Khabib should be next, but Ferguson has a strong case.
Nov 15, 2016 I wouldn't be surprised if the UFC creates another Interim Title and has Ferguson/Khabib fight. Have a feeling McGregor and the UFC are gonna be in some big Contract dispute, Conor was talking about equity at the presser. Plus his GF is pregnant and due in May, so i wouldn't be surprised if hes out until Summer or so. Gonna be interesting next few months to see how this plays out, because the UFC kinda looks like s--- if they don't take his FW belt away but at the same time you know they don't want to piss him off too badly.
Nov 15, 2016 Yeah Conor had a good point about Khabib being a pull out threat based on the last 2 years. I hope he's not out until the summer but I don't blame him for wanting to take a break. What did you think about that Woodley/Wonderboy decision?
Nov 15, 2016 Could still have him defend FW at 209 than take off until sometime in the Summer to defend LW championship vs winner of Ferg/Khabib Everybody wins
Nov 15, 2016 I think it was the right decision based on the judging system. Wonderboy won the 2nd, 3rd and 5th rounds 10-9 and Woodley won the 1st 10-9 and 4th 10-8. Hard to not look at that fight as a whole and think Woodley should have won though and its more proof that the 10 point must system doesn't work in MMA. Wishful, i think this McGregor/WME fued might go on for a bit. I also don't really see Conor going back to 145.
