Will his big money and microphone talk be done enlarge? I know for me it will. I think his next fight will solidify his fate. I truly wish him well. If he beat Frankie, I am a fan for life. Heck, if he beats Aldo twice I am a fan for life.
If Mcgregor loses again...

I suspect he will lose his next fight. He put on a lot of muscle and was already having a hard time making 145. If he comes into his division again everyone knows his tanks gonna be on E and plan around it. I still think he'll climb back up the ladder though. I'll still be a fan too.

On a serious note, he has majority of Ireland backing him and showing up to every damn event he's on and brings a lot of casual fans along for the ride. They'll continue using him until he's completely dried up. I think a few more losses would have to happen before majority start jumping off the wagon.

I could see him going the way of Dan Hardy, I don't think he'd lose that many consecutive, more along the lines of he could and due to his geographic draw he wouldn't get cut regardless.

Mcgregor isn't going anywhere. There are throngs of people who will continue to pay to see him take an ass whooping. Myself included. Whether we like him or not, the guy draws a crowd.

he loses one more and he will (should) NEVER have the audacity to talk shit about money and fighting skills again
yeah, thats something unknown
not only he put up muscle to go to LW but he tasted how it is to cut minimal weight (since the last 10 days were not cutting at all, rather maybe eating lots of food)

Win or lose he'll be a draw...He has a country behind him and his charisma makes him stand out among a crowd of pretty dull characters.
As long as his fights are exciting I'll be a fan.
So you're only a fan if he wins?

IMO the more interesting question is, who does he have to beat to get back the same aura he had, and the same hype?
I think Edgar/Aldo in his next fight, then Nate in a rematch, then RDA. If he wins those three fights, his hype train will be back on track. If he loses any of them, I think his hype train is pretty screwed.

I don't think is an option fighting in an another weight class. I do believe he is totally lost. He will have a lot pressure on his shoulders when he fights for the 1st time defending his title. He knows he can't lose, otherwise; as somebody said here: Dana White will make him sit on the floor outside the door.
