Conor doesn't deserve this fight at any weight. There's no solution to be had.
If you are implying that I am a Conor fan, you might well check my post history, Lmao. I am definitely not a fan of Conor.
You are being too naive. UFC did this in 2016, they passed Khabib because of Conor in 2016 and made Khabib wait for 2 years for a title shot. They can do it again, as the other contenders are not even close to Khabib.
If UFC can pass Khabib and give title shot to Conor, do you really think they can't pass Gaethje, Islam and Dariush?
This is UFC, they can do this and no one can say anything about this. See what happened in 2016.
I hate the idea of this fight happening, but I am afraid it will happen.
So this can be the only solution to Oliveira vs. Conor fight, if it happens at 155 it will be even worse.
The point of the fight is that Olivera is the champion. Without the belt on the line it's pointless. They want Conor as champion. He may get the chance since Olivera seems open to the money fight with Conor. Which he deserves so people shouldn't be too upset with his choice. Others will get their chance after.They can fight at 170 lbs Welterweight, without the LW belt on the line.
Similar to Conor's Nate Diaz and Cerrone fights. Poirier actually wanted to fight Conor at 170 lbs in the third fight as well, but it didn't happen.
Oliveira gets his money fight and Conor can talk about fighting a champion again, and if Conor wins, he wouldn't get the LW belt.
Nate beat Conor while Conor was still the 145 lbs Featherweight champ, Nate didn't become the FW champ. If Conor wins against Oliveira at 170 lbs, Conor would get a very shiny win but he wouldn't get the belt, and LW division can keep moving quickly without Conor getting an undeserved title shot.
They aren’t going to hold up the LW division for a fuckery fight between Oliveira and Conor. That division has moved in slo-mo since Conor won the belt. I think they’d prefer a title fight more than once a year. That’s about the pace of the last 5 years. That’s why they keep making interim belts. Which is lame.Are you sure you know how UFC operates? Conor definitely can get the title shot because this is UFC. And title fights are not given to the people who deserves it, UFC history proves it.
And I don't like the idea Conor fighting Oliveira at all, but at least if they are going to do it, it should be at 170 without the belt on the line.
I don’t think they want Conor as champ at all. Just so he can then never defend it?? I think they want him in title fights. But, I bet they’d prefer he lose them. That way he keeps fighting, but is still in the biggest fights. The UFC makes no money from Conor when he sits out.The point of the fight is that Olivera is the champion.

He would defend it now. He has no reason not to. He wouldn't be going after welterweight belt, he's not beating Usman. He's not going to boxing. He would defend the belt if he wins.I don’t think they want Conor as champ at all. Just so he can then never defend it?? I think they want him in title fights. But, I bet they’d prefer he lose them.

There has been 0 good turkish fighter in the history of the UFC
Gokhan Saki got killed by khalil after behaving like an animal before the fight.
Volkan is not turkish, he is kurdish.
Sorry man
Seriously.... how the hell could anyone possibly be in the favor oliveria NOT defending the LW title nextNah.
I see no problem in doing Charles vs Conor for the LW Belt
