If Max wins, he becomes the real Champ-Champ, leaving Conor with nothing

[Fatback96]

If Holloway beats Khabib(which is unlikely), he becomes a champ champ just like Conor was.

Conor will be stripped of his LW title, and Max would have 2 titles.

Max is following in Conor's footsteps, except that Max actually defends the belt he has now.

Max has the chance to become a better champ champ than Conor ever was, and I bet Conor knows this.

If this indeed happens, what will Conor do to one-up Max, for legacy's sake, or will he not give a fook and retire?

 

[RoyJonesJr]

Too bad he wont

And Conor will still be richer than the whole UFC roster

 

[Jesus H. Sherdog]

He might actually beat Max again.

But I doubt it.

Conor beat him. And if the rematch happened probably would do it again.

You’re right though, it’s unlikely max wins

How did Conor earn a shot at the LW belt originally??
Oh yeah it was given to him while being 0-0 in the LW division.
If Max is a paper champ champ, so is Conor.

 

[YOLOGOGOPLATA]

Champ-Champ or not, Max already has an interim win(FW), a unification win(FW), and a defense(FW). Conor has an interim win(FW), a unification win(FW) and a LW championship win. Seems like they are even. Only one way to decide who is best....

EDIT: I know Conor won 4.5 years ago - both have evolved and improved since then. It would be an entirely different fight.

OR if Max wins Conor comes running back for a HUGE rematch between the only two UFC double-champs & against stylistically a very beatable opponent for Conor. None of that pesky grappling to worry about like with Khabib or Tony.

Nope.

Conor wants Max to win. Then he will fight Max and beat him again and then say Khabib and Tony are trash and Max is the real boss. That way he dodges both Khabib and Tony, while making it seem like hes the unbeatable champ of 2 divisions.

As much as I like Max, him winning will turn the UFC into an even bigger shit fest than it already is.

 

[CasterMard]

Nothing but 100 mil, and a very winnable match up if he returns

 

[DragRacer]

Then that’s what will probably happen

The UFC will be hoping Holloway wins, not gonna happen though.

Nothing but a hundred million... I wish I had nothing

 

[The Invisible]

Conor already kicked max' ass...

 

[Dionysos]

 

[MescalineDreams]

He might actually beat Max again.

But I doubt it.

depends what reality you live In.

I live In a place called earth

 

[JT RIPPER]

I’d love it if Max won, Conor chases him and Max only agrees to a Conor fight at FW...making him work harder and enduring the cut to 145

Khabib / conor is the biggest fight that can be made at the moment. The most Intriguing battle of styles. Don't think they'd be too upset of Khabib won.

Khabib Isn't indestructible. He has holes In his game that even I can see. A potential showdown with Conor is a pickem at best from where I'm sitting when you actually analyse It on a deep level. Would be silly, short sighted and unwise to sleep on either guy.

Small chance Max pulls the upset. Picking Khabib but It's entirely possible.

Full camp and time to prepare I would give Max a small chance, week notice with the weight class difference... Khabib will maul him into oblivion. Khabib is the worst stylistic match up for Mcgregor, brutal in the clinch on the ground with excellent cardio and a chin.
