Dana Says He Doesn't Know If Conor Will Ever Fight Again = scare tactic to lowball Nate an offer

Pac-Man just called out Conor to a boxing match . I wouldn’t be surprised if we don’t see him again in the UFC
 
So he is officially a year out from his fight with Alvarez. Time to strip him of the 155 strap. Or is the UFC not following its own rules any longer?

He will fight again, but only against Nate.
 
Everyone knew that the UFC was never going to give Conor co promoter or an ownership stake so him never fight again was a very, very likely outcome.

But yeah now Nate Diaz needs to decide if he's ever going to fight again because Conor's not coming back.

It's more a tactic to get Tony to fight Khabib. Then once booked. Book the Nate fight and say those guys are tied up. Or even better for UFC Khabib wins and Conor is scott free because Conor has "pull out merchant" excuse ready, not to mention Khabib can't fight months before and months after ramadan. Like 6 months of the year Khabib is unable to fight and thats if he's healthy. Conor can book all sorts of fights during that time.

Nate, Boxers, Refs, Swimmers anything but defend against killers he stepped over.

Yup. I love it when Conor Nuthuggers use the excuse that the legitimate opponents are busy or tied up. Well yeah why the fuck do you think they are tied up? Because that's the way Dana and Conor wanted it.
 
Just you wait until they have no choice but to strip him. After that what can he do in his prime asides from sit out? Conor is the perfect example of believing your own hype. Never mind the fact he is coming if a tko loss. Hopefully they strip him and order is restored. The belts need to mean something. Stripping him would be a good start in restoring confidence in the belt system.
 
So if you're not even sure if he will fight ever again how did you kick him off the Dec 30 card?

In what book can he not fight months BEFORE Ramadan, you making things up as you go. He can't fight Ramadan and the month immediately after. So 2 months at most, since he won't be training as much.

Right before that he's good, there's no fasting/starving going on. He could take a fight 2 days before the month starts if he wants to.
 
I see his recent statement as a negotiating tactic with Conor rather than Nate.

He's trying to give the impression he's not that bothered if Conor comes back.

"before It's too late!"... right? Lol!

Simple negotiation tactic.

Conor is making too much money to be going anywhere anytime soon.

Don't believe Dana White's lies. He is simply using his old negotiation tactics.

and to send the message to Conor and his mangement: drop this Conor should get a piece of the company. They don't want him as a buisness partner in that way.

If we view things in a longer term pespective it is not impossible for someone else in LW to fly up as contendor and high profile name, there are a couple of other guys in that division that could become high profile names with help of the UFC hype machine, and who knows the media might be able to convey a sellable beef between him and Conor?

Well, the problem is that Ferguson is the interim champ waiting to fight the champ.

Then, we also have Khabib as the #1 contender.

Conor doesn't want to fight either one of these guys, because everyone knows they would wreck him.
 
There is no thing in the world that Dana White enjoys doing more than fucking people around for a nickel.
