Media Mcgregor contacts Disney CEO over his lack of fights

What fights are Conor asking for? For some reason I doubt the UFC doesn't wanna make money off their cash cow

Actually Conor could have a legit case here, if he wants to fight and they are refusing to book him, it could lead to legal troubles for the UFC.

Is Disney a UFC owner??...he barked to the wrong tree.
 
As far as being an actual competitor in the sport of Mixed Martial Arts, Conor McGregor is fucking irrelevant and he either needs to stop trying to strongarm the promotion he fights for and fight when they can schedule him or go fuck off and retire.

I'm not buying any of this shit and the way this dude has been acting gives me zero reason to believe him.

A better question is, how the fuck is he still ranked... both on the p4p ranking and the LW ranking.

Because when casuals see someone ranked above Conor McGregor- they go “whoa that guy must be good! He’s above Conor!”
 
I’m calling bs on connor. No way the ufc wouldn’t gladly have him fight, he’s their cash cow. Problem is it needs to make sense. Beating up cowboy then Diego sanchez without a live gate does nothing for his stock and even the numbers probably wouldn’t be typical connor numbers. Now give him masvidal and that makes sense.

But how does a retirement effect the contract? Is it "inactive" but still valid? I don't believe he left USADA pool. I don't think conor would win a court case, but if it were to become a legal issue the UFC would probably just have to have a strict definition of what retirement is.

Retired the same way Jones and Masvidal did. Dana wouldn’t give him a fight so he said fuck it.

Thats better for them, USADA stops testing, they dont need to offer him fights to keep him under contract, if anything that was the wrong move by him, that if he had officially retired, if he only posted it on twitter, then it is and its not, the UFC has the upper hand there, they realized they can still put big events without him, seems like it.
 
Don't the UFC have to offer you 3 fights a year? Not sure if that's legally binding or just some shit Dana says, but if he actually hasn't been offered any fights despite him asking maybe he has a case
 
Disney just let go of 28,000 employees. Doubt they want to meet Conor's outrageous demands.
