So, is it safe to assume Conor denied the Mas fight?

[JkMMA]

... And if so, what is his plan for this "2020 season" now?

He'd have to wait for most of the year to fight the winner of Tony Khabib and that doesn't correlate with his plan of wanting to fight 3 times this year.

Conor x Gaethje announcement coming soon?

More like conor vs nate. Smart and safer idea to do nate instead of gathje.

lmao, there is no 2020 season, you just got conned, i am afraid... it's just conman's tactics. spreading bullshit propaganda, bullshit narratives, selling wolf tickets and piss poor whiskey. That's his 2020 season. That's his every season.

If you want to blindly hate on him like a hater...sure.

I can hate on him for being a loudmouth, rapist that cheap shots the elderly

 

[No Skill Gap]

Here's what everyone just simply doesn't get for some reason:

Conor >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> than every other fighter on the UFC roster in terms of generating money. PPV buys, views, attention, etc.

So yes he's not going to go through the grinder at LW or WW and fight Justin Gaethje for a number 1 contender spot, when he can simply just cut the line and wait for one of Tony or Khabib to drop out, or the winner. He's not about to fight Masvidal...for what? To fight Usman? McGregor fought at FW it's kind of ridiculous to expect him to fight a monster wrestler at WW. when he's not even cutting to get there.

Yes it's not exactly merit based anymore but there's a logical reason for it. It doesn't just cancel out McGregor's achievements though which are very impressive. Gotta give credit where credit is due.

Masvidal specifcally...why take that fight? What's the point? To appease random idiot hardcores? It makes zero sense. Masvidal is bigger than him, he's a true WW, he's not a big name or a money fight really at all, and there's no path to a title past Masvidal unless McGregor thinks he can beat Usman which is unlikely. Why wouldn't McGregor just rubber match Diaz? Makes more money than fighting Masvidal, easier fight, always gonna be there. He's waiting for the LW title right now.

He shook.

Huge duck

 

[The DanaWhite]

If he did it wasnt because he didnt want too. The guy isnt afraid of a challenge. I actually think he smokes masvidal. Jorge isnt some wrestler, the size wont mean shit. He likes to kick box at range and thats conors game. Go watch wonderboy vs jorge. Jorge isnt exactly some super elite kickboxer. He has never won 4 in a row his entire ufc career. Regardless who he fights his winstreak stops here. conor, usman and even colby all smoke jorge. That maia and wonderboy fight wasnt even long ago. Just ask yourself how relevant diaz, akren, and till are in the elite of the 170 division? Jorge is still journey man jorge. The ufc PR team has just got all the casuals fooled into thinking he is elite

 

[ritchest_eva]

Conor get another tune up fight vs Gaethje or Diaz and then winner of khabib/Tony... then if gamebred gets the real belt Conor goes for that

Conor x Gaethje announcement coming soon?

Conor told everyone what he was going to do at the post fight press conference.

1 - He's going to Khabib/Ferg and making weight as a backup hoping one of them pulls out

2 - If that falls through he's fighting Masvidal

3 - If that falls through he may take a boxing match

 

[Deleted member 571517]

As Dana once said "Masvidal is too big for Conor!"

 

[Liquid Samurai]

There’s always hope that Ferguson or Khabib take a good beating and bribe the loser with a ton of cash to fight Conor on short notice

What is this rambling? If either "takes a good beating", more than likely they'll be on a medical suspension, which would prevent them from being bribed to "fight Conor on short notice"

 

[Koro_11]

When Masvidal wins a real belt then he can get his red panty night, until then Conor will wait for his title shot at 155

Oh ya, cause Conor only fights dudes with real belts, like gatekeeper Nate, and washed up gatekeeper Cerrone.

Seriously, how do you guys still manage to do it, how do you convince yourself of the shameless nonsense you post?

 

[DrTrouble]

Dana has literally said no this whole time, he doesn't like it. Why would he be offered he fight?

Because Connor gets to pick and choose who he wants to fight. Don't be fooled by the idea that Dana chooses the opponent.

 

[TAK47]

@BryanSchaub
He does not like it = Conor is not winning.

= Masvidal declined to take a dive

 

[frye666]

Conor is pretty clearly ducking Masvidal and you have to be delusional to believe otherwise. He was ready and willing to fight Nate if he beat Masvidal, but now that Masvidal destroyed Nate...

When the Mas fight got offered............................

 

[benebox]

He probably hopes Masvidal can win the title before he fights him. If I was his promoter I would wait to see if Ferguson or Masvidal are successful in their title shots then take on the winner.

how is Masvidal not a name? There is a reason why he's getting a shot at Usman, Usman needs challengers that draw fans in.

Especially after Masivdal beat Diaz at MSG in a really high profile fight - he's certainly a name now. I mean if he's not a name because he's not as big as McGregor, who is?

What 's wrong with you for calling ppl random idiot for willing to watch Masvidal vs mcg..
Oh you' d prefere watching fights that only makes sense financially?... For you? Obviously not you fool

We're no dana white, we're no Sean Selby we're no Joe Silva. We only care about the fights we want to see...
