He just said this on Twitter. Hopefully true. An interim title would be embarrassing.
 
It was discussed ad naseum here on Sherdog.

Bunch of pointless, time wasting threads.
 
Obviously. RDA just defended two months ago, and has never pulled out of a UFC fight before. Aldo was a totally different situation.
 
Bunch of jackoff fanbois expecting more special treatment for McG. RDA fought more recently than Conor.

Speaking of, when is Conor going to defend the 145 belt? Kavanaugh says he can't make 145 anymore. Time to strip that belt, right?
 
Hopefully RDA will get Khabib after not showing up to fight Conor.

People on here don't wait for facts.

It was discussed here because it was headlined on major MMA news sites, like

Dana White reacts to Rafael dos Anjos injury, won't rule out interim title fight for Conor McGregor
 
I find this tidbit interesting. Without a "belt" on line the does Conor still headline? Because if not, a short camp wrestlers chance of layNpray to a 3 round decision get a helluva lot better than if it were a 5 round main. I think they'll avoid a wrestler match up at all costs regardless. my mind wanders.

How do they justify Conor vs Nate over a title fight with holly and meisha? Just say fuck it tough luck ladies this fights a bigger draw? lol. And if its not the main event it loses 5 rounds and everyone would be pissed.

That is correct.

They gave Chael Sonnen a shot at Jon fucking Jones. There's really nothing that can be perceived as a surprise anymore in this new dickrider era.

But you really think it's past them to do something like that for Conor?
 
until the numbers tell different, conor is only main events with DW. tho it wouldnt surprise me if UFC trot out an interim belt to boost numbers, its absurd. and interim belt vs anyone except alvarez is a huge stretch even for DW. i suspect if conor says, "no fight except for interim belt", Dana will make it for an interim belt.
