He’s got all the tools. If the UFC likes you they will give you the right fights. But the most important thing is he needs to keep winning. Not the biggest conor fan but regardless of the criticism people have for him he won every fight in his rise to stardom. He wouldn’t be who he is if he didn’t win in CW all the way until he KO’d Aldo in seconds. If Garry can keep winning and in spectacular fashion, I see no reason he can’t be a star.

Who would you give him for his first fight in the UFC?

 

[careto]

I think he can crack the top 10 in time but they need to ease his way up. Mason Jones looked every bit as impressive but has had a hard time in his first 2 fights in the UFC. I know he was winning his last fight but that was a gimme fight if we are being honest.

Idk honestly I mean 7-0 at 23 years old is still really young and inexperienced. At least Conor was 24 and had 14 fights or something.

 

[Hellowhosthat]

Id give him someone older with a bit of a name like Court McGee, I think he can get that done.

 

[Ares Black]

The sky is the limit with that kid. If he finds himself a good team and stays focused he can be a huge star.

Aw man, that would be a joke match up at this point.

To be fair, McGee looked pretty decent against Claudio. He's a pretty decent test for prospects because he's a tough gritty bastard who doesn't have huge glaring weaknesses. I remember him giving Sean Brady a nice fight in his debut.

He just recently got thrown out of his gym.

I don't think he'll have much of an issue finding another one tbh.

I wonder what the real story is?

Likely just a personality conflict.

His new girl seems very controlling. He even got her name tattooed on his arm after like 4 months dating…..

..... That seems like a mistake.

That’s the name of the game when you get with an older chick. She sees him as her money ticket and she’s running his life now.

Yup lol, and His former gym said it all started when she started dating him implying that it’s because off her

Yeah it seems like a power struggle between her and his former coach for control of his career.
