Either one of those fights would be the biggest ppv in the history of ppv's.

Are you ready for the return of Conor?
Conor vs Islam?
Conor vs Khabib II ?
I agree, but I still don't think he would have beat Khabib. I really think he convinced himself that he would beat Floyd.Boxing Floyd was the end, I will be clowned on but I still dont believe that Conor that fought Khabib was anywhere near as good as the Conor that fought Eddie, or even Nate
Him losing then barely winning the next nate fight confirmed my forever judgement that conor is only elite at marketing vs striking.It started after Nate choked him out
This is the gist of it.
Conor played the bigger game -- making money off of Wins and Losses and Biz opportunities, whilst leveraging his ascent and descent into social media madness.
He's playing and winning the BIGGER GAME - $$$,$$$,$$$.
And he's bigger than his UFC Character.
BUT -- can he survive it?

American Kickboxing Academy coach Javier Mendez believes Conor McGregor hasn’t been the same since fighting Khabib Nurmagomedov.
Javier Mendez: Conor McGregor Not the Same Since Khabib Nurmagomedov Loss
American Kickboxing Academy coach Javier Mendez believes Conor McGregor hasn’t been the same since fighting Khabib Nurmagomedov.www.sherdog.com
Islam Makhachev recently expressed interest in facing McGregor, backtracking on his previous stance. Asked about the reason behind Makhachev’s interest in McGregor, Mendez, who has coached both Makhachev and Nurmagomedov at AKA, stated the obvious: a massive payday and instant stardom.
“Massive fight, massive amount of money. And at the end of the day when you’re a champion, when you’re a prize fighter, you fight for the prize, the money,” Mendez told Submission Radio. “So, it’s a massive fight for Islam, it will bring up his stock tremendously. Conor definitely brings that to the table regardless of whether you like him or don’t like him.”
While Makhachev is open to fighting McGregor, the lightweight champ is extremely dismissive of the Irishman, who he believes is well past his prime., Mendez also believes “Notorious” hasn’t been the same since his title loss against Nurmagomedov at UFC 229 in 2018.
“He’s [McGregor] the lottery ticket for a lot of these guys, you know," Mendez said. "Why do you even have guys that are much heavier calling him out, ‘Oh he’s heavy now, let me call him out.’ Yeah you know, he changes their lives because of the money and the fame that comes with the fight. It’s a big deal, we all want that prize. He has it, he is that prize, he knows it. But the problem is, like Islam has said, he doesn’t think he [McGregor] is the same fighter he was way back then when he was beating Jose Aldo, Chad Mendes and all those other guys, Eddie Alvarez. He was the man and then he met the hype, Khabib, that was the real hype. And so then I don’t think he’s been the same since. I really don’t. Maybe I’m wrong, but I don’t think I am. I think he hasn’t been the same since the Khabib fight.”
agreed. the major tell was him drinking whiskey and appearing pretty buzzed at the press conference. Dana was like "wtf that is actuality whiskey" when Conor gave him the flask.Boxing Floyd was the end, I will be clowned on but I still dont believe that Conor that fought Khabib was anywhere near as good as the Conor that fought Eddie, or even Nate
I think the motivation to beat Khabib was still great, his karate stance was still there when he was standing, the TDD was decent for the first few shots before he started cheating even and he wasn't as boxing oriented as he was against Poirier. Not that it would have mattered that night.Boxing Floyd was the end, I will be clowned on but I still dont believe that Conor that fought Khabib was anywhere near as good as the Conor that fought Eddie, or even Nate
