Conor McGregor can indeed legally book a Boxing match without Zuffas permission (proof inside)

[Guy Smith]

He'd earn more in 1 boxing fight than these MMA dudes would earn in their entire careers, and then some....

More like he'll be a WINNER in this situation, while all of these other UFC fighters gets f'd over by Dana and the Lorenzo brothers by risking permanent brain damage to get paid chump change.

Mayweather's simply taking advantage of this UFC bum-ass pay situation. Win-win for both Connor and Mayweather.

These type of things happen when you pay your fighters like shyt.

If UFC co-promotes, cool. If not, Con will be sued for what he earned. A millionaire's lawyer would go against a billionaires.

 

[Guy Smith]

UFC would be obligated to offer him a fight every so often or else they would be breaching their contractual obligation and would get into even bigger shit because Connor could then sue them and seek financial relief without even having to fight.

They can offer him a prelim. It would be interesting to see how he would react. They probably wouldn't, but the option is there if they want to fuck him.

 

[MATT DAMON]

I assume you know the 'didn't read ' is coming

I actually read it.


Here my problem with the UFC's contract:

3.5 During the Term, ZUFFA shall have the exclusive right to promote all of Fighter's bouts and Fighter shall not participate in or render his services as a professional fighter or in any other capacity to any other mixed martial art, martial art, boxing, professional wrestling, or any other fighting competition or exhibition, except as otherwise expressly permitted by this Agreement.

So far, Floyd Mayweather, and McGregor can sidestep this for promotion purposes by having only Money Mayweather, and Mayweather MMA to promote the idea of a fight between himself, and Conor McGregor.

Conor McGregor can't be sued for what another individual is saying about him. Thus, this fight can first be promoted as an idea of a fight between these two people. Then, once the actual fight is signed, and a contract exists for the fight, the official fight promotion between the relevant parties can begin.

As of right now, the UFC, or Zuffa, cannot stop Money Mayweather nor Conor McGregor from entertaining the idea of fighting each other. Zuffa would basically be trying to sue Money Mayweather, and McGregor for a "thought crime".

All Dana White, and Company can do is what they have been doing, which is deny all rumors of a fight until the fight has officially been signed, and controlled by ZUFFA.

So, Conor McGregor wins. Money Mayweather win this. End of story.

Because CSAC is going to approve of a fight between an 0-0 professional boxer against someone 49-0........ idiots

This right here.

There's no fucking way the CASC or the NYSAC will sanction this bout.

We have not made it that far for CSAC to be involved in this situation. Look at CM PUnk. He is a signed UFC fighter, and that's all that matters.


He more than likely hasn't fought because CSAC is going to really scrutinize his fight to make sure the UFC doesn't match him up with a killer. This would basically be sanctioned murder.

You are thinking way too far ahead.

CSAC, and any other agency should not get in the way of promoting a fight, or promoting the idea of a fight.


As of right now, Money Mayweather, and McGregor are promoting the idea of a fight, and are not actually promoting the fight itself. There is a big difference here.

 

[THECYNDlCATE]

No one bit. Sad face.

It's great to have a lawyer's opinion on this, since everyone else has been confused as to whether or not this fight could actually happen.

I'll point out that the experts consulted in the article did say this approach is not guaranteed; they said it was a strategy that might work.

 

[Etherized]

Actually.......

oh god i remember that guy.. what is his name again?

It can work, but in the mean time, before the fight is officially promoted, you can still promote the idea of the fight between two athletes.

Tons of Conor fans are bandwagon'ers that are just on his nuts as much as you because of his mystic ora and how he always wins. Those "noob" fans are on his nuts because of his star power. Most of those "noobs" aren't even MMA fans. Those "noob" fans are why he sells a million pay per's.They see him as a "fighter" and him talking the shit he would talk to Money then getting his arse served wouldn't see him the same way anymore. Yeah nut huggers like you would cup his nuts ever so gently regardless, but not everybody that is a "Conor" fan is ride or die. Get his life like penis cloned dong out your butt.

Say what you will... but it will be kind of hard to hype/ promote Conor in MMA after getting schooled in boxing (if he was to return) baddest mofo at 145, one of the worlds best fighters...
wait? THAT guy? Did he not get raped schooled, humiliated in boxing?
Yeah. A loss is almost always bad.

 

[empsim]

Conor would get KO'd the first counter from Floyd.

yes but he'll make a lot of money getting KO'd

 

[lsa]

Anderson was supposed to be setting up a Boxing match with Roy Jones Jr. before his loss to Weidman. So I believe.

Yes... and how did that go?
Oh thats right he was not allowed by the UFC to do it.
So it never happened

Yes and so has others.. But CM Punk is not (if he ever fights) going up against some one that is 10 - 0.
He will get a guy with very few fights. So it will be similar in experience.
Nobody that is 0-0 will get a former champ or very experiences guy.

How ever.... Brock got Mir in his second fight and it was sanctioned.
James Toney got sanctioned against Randy with out any problems.
So.. Better examples?

 

[knight]

Isn't there some sort of champion clause oer something? Anderson Silva never could do his desired boxingmatch with RJJ? Both competitors actually wanted it.

 

[Number1StockBroker]

He'll get sued for everything.

The casuals who are on his nuts because of his mouth and "winning streak" will give up on him due to another loss. His shit talking will be devalued. That would fuck his career. On top of getting sued by UFC and them really sticking it to him, he'll be a "was"

Who cares of he loses a fight in a boxing ring, he is suppose to lose especially to an alltime great like Mayweather. It will be like Mayweather losing an MMA match to Mcgregor, will that shock you? No and if he did I dont believe it will devalue Mayweather's talent in the ring, I might be wrong so I might give you that though, since not everyone thinks like me.

100+ million to get knocked the absolute fuck out in 3 minutes

Bro, was your previous account FallonFoxGOAT by any chance?

 

[Noah]

Would be great to see Dana sitting ring side to the fight he bought tix for and never made a penny off the event.

 

[KONE]

Bro, was your previous account FallonFoxGOAT by any chance?

Hahahaha fuck no, why?
