McGregor being left off UFC 200 is good for him. He needs to recover.

I agree with Pettis - he's burned out. I can recognize it because I went through it. I remember after the Mendes fight thinking he looked burned out - when he was going on about how much he hated the media in the post-fight press conference. His wanting to retreat to the familiarity of his team and his old ways is a sign of it.

I think that he needs much longer to recover from that loss. It would be better for everyone if they bring him back in November.

I agree he's fought quite alot. He got tired kg doing so much press and that's understandable. Hell Ronda nearly lost her damn mind from it all.

Beating the man who stole his soul would be his only "recovery"...

In short, he'll never recover.

Says the very experienced fighter The Big Bang. I'm assuming you are an experienced fighter, of course, since you are so sure?

I got majorly burned out, too. You don't realize it at the time, and you think you can handle it, but it catches up on you.

Your username sums up Conor's chances against Nate pretty well.

Yeah, he definitely needs more time to rehabilitate that knee injury that I read about all day yesterday on Sherdog. That's the true issue here, right? Sherdog couldn't have been wrong, that would be unheard of!
