Memes and jokes aside I knew that Donald stood no damn choice. This was a very easy fight for Conor.
1000% this.
No other choice, Dana. Masvidal vs McGregor needs to happen.

I would give him like zero chance against Usman. The Masvidal fight is so fun because its actually a close fight and its gonna be a firefight
Those shoulders and the speed just fucked Cowboy up. To the eye, the nose and back to the eye.
Now lets get him against Masvidal and Usman.

Don't know why thinking about that fight puts me to sleep, I would rather watch him against Masvidal
Masvidal is definitely next, but if he wins that he'll get his choice of Usman or Khabib/Tony
I mean yeah just think about how easily Usman ragdolled Woodley, nightmare matchup.
Fair and fair I'd just love to see it
Conor/Jorge would probably do something close to Conor/Nate numbers. UFC has next to zero other draws. ESPN would kidnap Dana White's children if he tried to make any other matchup.
I had hope it would at least last outside the first. Cowboy should've at least attempted a single after dodging the opening punch, but those shoulders did a huge number and Conor kept the pressure.
If he gets on the card he wants, it would make that March show huge. Conor/Masvidal, Izzy/Romero, Zhang/Joanna. Or they could put it on the April card with Khabib and Tony.
I agree if he wants to stay in the division. As if an then straight to Usman. Where usman should destroy him.
OP
OP
it would be over quicker than Khabib presuming Usman doesn't mess around on the feet like he did against Colby.
Conor's only place fighting highly ranked opponents is at Lightweight.
They'll probably put it on its own like with this one. UFC is spread thin. They can't really stack cards. Conor/Jorge sells itself. No reason to throw in an Adesanya or Khabib for free.
I remember way back in the day when Tyson lost his winning ways, some people blamed it on being successful. It's easy to hit the gym at 5 am when you're dirt poor, it's a lot harder when you're sleeping in silk sheets.
I wondered if McGregor had hit that - too much money, too many distractions, too much taking his attention - scattered as it already was between promotion and training - for him to get that edge back.
Guess not.

Guess not.
The only reason I don't see that is because they already have main events announced through May and they aren't gonna hold Conor out that long. If he wants to fight again soon, which he says he does, they'll have to put him with another big fight.
They're not gonna hold it out that long I don't think, especially considering the quick finish here. Conor has said he wants to fight more often than that this year.
Theoretically, he's fighting Tony Ferguson in April. Theoretically...
Dana white setting up booby traps for Tony as we speak,.
249 is Khabib so thats a no go. 250 is in Brazil, again so no go. Making the Masvidal fight in 7 weeks seems way to little time. That's a 4-5 week fight camp
Given Conor took zero damage and Masvidal is healthy, it's really not a ridiculous turnaround. Conor threw out March as a possibility a few days ago. Plus if he fights on that card, he almost definitely could turn around again for Fight Week. Then you get two paydays instead of one.
