realistically conor has no belts......after next Saturday anyway.
the champs will be Holloway at 45 , and khabib at 55.
the rankings will have to reflect as such.
conor might even be ready to go, but the amount of money WME would lose from lack of promotion is real vs what conors salary demands,.

I'm sure the UFC would love to pay Conor a wack and only have 6 days to sell it.

So nobody thinks Conor can sell a PPV on short notice? The guy calls himself the PPV King, always running on about his numbers....

Yeah that’s the most ridiculous thing I’ve heard in trying to defend McGregor. They put McGregor vs Diaz together in ten days. And it sold 1.6M supposedly.
GTFO here with this not enough time to sell the fight rubbish.

Then it'd make no sense for Khabib, because, win or lose, he'd still have the belt.

Would Khabib accept anything besides a fight for the belt? Plus the money for the gate and other things that the ufc wouldn’t be able to capitalize on from Conor in such short notice... I’m sure the PPVs would break 1M not sure if it would top his Diaz 2 fight... but there’s more to the business overall besides PPVs... like commercials and sponsors who would pay more for a Conor fight

True.
I just remember when Conor gave Jose' his re-match opportunity, at a different weight class, for no belt.
Then why promote the fact you'd be a replacement if one of the two pull out?
He couldn't just stay in hiding? Weird how he suddenly showed up AFTER the Tony-Khabib fight was finalized. But had to put the "Stay ready.... ill fill in if you don't" bullshit out there but now he's gone in hiding again.

No
Nobody think the UFC will short change themselves like that
6 days vs 2-3 months is gonna have a huge effect no matter who you are
The casual crowd that Conor attracts don't keep up with current MMA affairs regularly.
He tried to step in for Max vs Franke, the UFC told him no because there isn't enough time to promote it, with even less time to promote it why bother offering again? You know the answer

I know Khabib would fight Conor for no belt, and for free. To think otherwise is ignorant of Khabibs true warrior attitude.

Conor was already scheduled on the card for months, the opponent didn't matter

All Khabib has said and talked bout is he wants the belt he don’t care who’s it for as long as he gets the belt... I’m just going off of what he’s said in the past... damn that’s legit you tight with Khabib like that!

Conor walking away from a threat is nothing new:
