Is there even demand for Conor in 2025???

[Rampage_Jackson]

What evidence do we have to believe him coming back would draw at this point? I know most "real" MMA fans don't want to see it. Are casuals who don't follow MMA really going to perk up and pay for a PPV because this bozo is back? I'm not buying it. The theory, or the PPV.

He won't be fighting in 2025 and the the PPV model is gone from January onwards.

I’d love to see him gas before getting KOd one, two… three more times!!!

Wasn't UFC 303 set for a $20M+ record gate for the McGregor vs Chandler fight before he pulled out? I'd say that's pretty good evidence.

Nobody is arguing he's a championship level fighter still. But he still brings in the numbers, that's undeniable.

Not really. We only had to delete 30 threads dedicated to his dong..

 

[Kevster]

“Real fans” brag on Sherdog about streaming fights for free, seriously doubt the bean counters gives the tiniest fuck what they think.

would be funny to see him break his other leg and turn into a southpark character yapping while crawling on the floor. But other than that i think he belongs on real housewives or jersey shore more than mma at this point.

Chael is still staring at it!

 

[loisestrad]

See, what you (TS) don't get is that Conor has entered the realm of "world wide, general famous" and not only "MMA famous".

No other MMA fighter has entered that zone. Ronda came close, but then got kicked in her head.

If Conor had a fight in like 3 months, it would add to his list of being part of the biggest PPV's ever.

That's just how it is.

who cares? he's a glorifed check casher, Almost 10 years past expiration

people dedicate threads to ask if wmma is popular it doesn't make it popular

 

[Jawth]

He definitely still has pull, but I dont know that its enough for the UFC to pay him what it would take to get him back.

Looking at past PPVs of his, he kinda has to have lost the ability to put up those numbers because of you know, one win since 2016.

has WMMA ever been popular? Except for Ronda fights that lasted 15 seconds, it really hasn't been.

You're comparing the biggest star in the sport to WMMA now.

Never change sherbro

Yes, I demand he decline an invitation to a Roadhouse sequel.

Roadhouse was hugely succesful.

 

[Only Here for Attachments]

In Daner’s mind, absolutely. In the real world, probably not so much.

Connor is only relevant to a handfull of gold digging bimbos looking for that meal ticket....
