Wait until tomorrow or Friday I guess.There's not that much hype around this imo. I live in Vegas, and a lot of people don't even realize McGregor is back. At least on the casual side of the house.

That is fair. Sherdog hypes the shit out of any remotely big fight though lol
Fedor crushing a can sends this place into a frenzy
Ready for 246 to be over just so people can shut up about a McGregor fight against a guy who doesn’t even have a serious chance of getting a belt. It’s not even a “big return”. The dude hasn’t fought in 15 months, which isn’t that long of an absence compared to what some fighters take.
But seriously, I can’t remember any non-title bout that hasn’t included Conor that scratches the surface. Frankly, only a few title bouts have as well.
No. Here are the biggest non-Conor non-title fights in UFC history, in no particular order:
Brock/Reem
Brock/Mir 1
Brock/Herring
Brock/Hunto
Rampage/Rashad
Anderson/Nick
Diaz/Masvidal
Chuck/Tito 1
Chuck/Wand
Chuck/Shogun
Chuck/Rich
Ken/Tito 2
Hughes/Gracie
Anderson/Forrest
Anderson/Stephan
Punk/Gall (it's up there, as much as I hate to say it)
The boldest fights are the biggest imo. And they pale in hype in comparison to this fight.
I feel like it's more Sherdog hype than real world hype for this fight.

Yeah, not hating on anybody who's excited, but... What hype? This seems barely above standard.Fights is in a few days, other than some MMA websites I dont see anyone else really caring
