Makes sense. They will do whatever they can to make Conor/Khabib happen instead, but make sure Khabib is injured like he always is but force him to fight anyways.
Yeah we get that. The question is, why is he still champion then? I think that's the main complaint people have. I don't care who he fights, just move on with the division already.Cant make a man fight when he already has 10 life fortunes, could very possibly lose/take damage, already has a secured legacy/accomplishments, and could make twice as much fighting Nate for a 3rd time who he knows he could beat.
its just reality. you can say all you want about Conor but hes not "scared" of anybody. hes just more of a business at this point rather than fighter. Nate brings more money. De La Hoya or Floyd2 brings more money. At the end of the day what is this sport? Prize fighting. Conor is going to go for the biggest prize, regardless what hardcore fans feel about it.
Ok great. He's rich. He can do all of that if he wants. Go get his ass kicked by retired boxers, get smashed by GSP, etc. all for a ton of money. But why is he holding on to a belt and holding up a division still if he has no intentions of defending or being a legitimate champ?Cant make a man fight when he already has 10 life fortunes, could very possibly lose/take damage, already has a secured legacy/accomplishments, and could make twice as much fighting Nate for a 3rd time who he knows he could beat.

hahah.sorry man love ya
I thought we already established you're not a real personLmao at all the dorks saying Conor won't fight Tony because DC said Conor won't fight Tony AT UFC 219. Fucking casuals.
No, you're correct. But he's an AKA member, which means he doesn't think he ever has to beat anyone and the UFC will just give him things no matter how inactive he is.Khabib is scheduled to fight Barboza next month right? Or did I miss something?
JJ = Juice Junkie
Lol at Conor being afraid of anybody. Looked to me like he was all in for the end of the year vs. Tony then he went and did some stupid shit and fucked it up. He lost his temper and lost the end of year spot.
Not to mention that DC fought well before Tony and hasn't done shit since the UFC gave him his paper belt back. Seems he could go ahead and give this card a main event, unless he's still recovering from that concussion Jones gave him.Khabib signed to fight Edson. Sit the fuck down, DC. Your boy has a likely chance to not make weight and you want to throw him to the interim champ already? DC needs to gtfo. If Tony didn't beef it up with him he wouldn't be posting idiotic comments like that.
I agree, DC should be fully recovered now. Volkan vs DC sounds good to me. They might just leave cyborg vs holly as the main event though.Not to mention that DC fought well before Tony and hasn't done shit since the UFC gave him his paper belt back.

Well, Volkan might not be a go after getting arrested over the weekend, but I'd be willing to bet Gus, OSP, Manuwa, Glover or someone else would be happy to step in, if it's not beneath DC to defend his 'title' after 5 months.I agree, DC should be fully recovered now.

Your probably right but Volkan seems he will post bail soon... I hope I am right about that. Gus vs DC 2 would be amazing too and you know OSP always brings it.Well, Volkan might not be a go after getting arrested over the weekend, but I'd be willing to bet Gus, OSP, Manuwa, Glover or someone else would be happy to step in, if it's not beneath DC to defend his 'title' after 5 months.
