If Conor and Ronda were on the same card, who would headline?

LOL all that salt from mcnuggets balls is affecting your mind.

Ronda is the biggest draw in the UFC period, mcnugget is almost as self centered as the daze bros so just more fail from you.
 
Common--Conor would be fighting a top lw where the odds wouldn't be -1400 like Ronda..
Not even close-Ronda co headlines then the main event.
 
Conor would headline no matter who Ronda was fighting.
 
Good question TS. I vote Ronda Rowdy since she could beat Conor Mc in a fight so therefore she should headline over him.
 
Depends on location. If vegas 50/50 depending on how the promotion of the fight went and the opponent.

If california, definitely ronda. If Boston or Anywhere in Europe, Mcgregor.

Based on the severely limited talent pool at WBW, I would favor Mcgregor.

It has already been said Conor, even if it were Cyborg. People just don't understand reality outside there little bubbles or tweets that they read. How quickly people forget the magnitude, the electricity that Conor brings and the 7.2 million he brings when he headlines. The Irish will leave as soon as he fights, you can bet your bottom dollar, even if it is Ronda...UFC learned there lesson the hard way from UFC 178.

Do people honestly think Ronda "fans" will be willing to shell out 5k a seat for a Ronda fight? Ha! The Irish will for Conor. Conor is worshippped in his country, he is not just a tabloid, troll bait, flash in the pan. Asking who serves as headliner is as silly as asking if one should eat their steak first an salad later.

Exactly. Conor would headline for the simple fact that everyone, even Ronda, is asking to be on his undercard. Everyone knows a Conor card is where it's at.
 
If it goes by weight Conor would headline a fight with Aldo and Ronda would headline otherwise since her fight would be a fight for an undisputed championship.

If the UFC orders the fight card by biggest draw then Ronda unless the fight is in Ireland.
 
I think it's pretty simple. Rousey would headline.

Conor's fans will tune in regardless of whether he headlines the card or not. They already know who Conor is and his supporters are going to go out of their way to make sure that his potential supporters view the fight regardless of card position.

Rousey reaches far deeper into the mainstream, which means she gets far more exposure than the actual number of fans that have purchased her PPV's. There are a significant number of people among casual viewers that will see the PPV listed as Conor-McGregor and will simply keep scrolling to another channel. However, they'll see Rousey-Cyborg and all the media coverage and they'll purchase it as event television.

If the UFC wants the absolute maximum coverage and conversion of passing interest to buys, then they put Rousey at the top of the card. Also, from a fighter exposure point of view it makes sense to have Rousey as the last fight of the night.

Rousey viewers may tune out of the Conor fight if it's after the Rousey fight. That doesn't go the other way nearly as much because pretty much everyone assumes that the Rousey fight will be short.

If it's 1am and you're there for Conor, you'll likely hang around the extra 3-5 minutes for the expected Rousey win. If it's 1am and you're there for Rousey, you might just turn off the set as a significant portion of viewers will be completely new to the sport and have no vested interest in Conor or Aldo.
 
This is silly. There are little to no chance that the UFC would put both of their biggest cash cows on the same card.

If he was a better fighter he wouldnt have 2 losses and would be somewhat capable on the ground. Plus hes a fake champ...Ronda is the real deal, not to mention shes more well known then the irish chael sonnen.

And when conor loses, all the kings horses and all the kings men wont be able to put him together again.

Ronda is the better investment overall cause she is now a complete fighter who dominates in the way anderson and george did back in the day. Conor still has holes and they will be exposed soon enough. Irish luck.
 
Ronda would headline, but Conor's fight would be the final one on the card.

It would be a situation where the 2nd to last event was dubbed the 'main event'. :p

Kinda like when OJ Simpson told Robert Shapiro that he'd be the quarterback of their defense team (head lawyer) and Johnny Cochran would be the running back (junior lawyer) -- but it would be a running game they played, not a passing game. :)
 
In order of priority

1. Ronda/Cyborg

2. Ronda/Tate IV(If Tate pulled the upset)

2. Conor title fight

3. Ronda/Any other WBW
