The BMF title was specifically made for the purpose of giving McGregor a fast pass to the WW title, since he wouldn't be able to do it the honorable way. If Diaz would've beat Masvidal, it would've been the same manufactured path to greatness. When McGregor beats Masvidal, just remember that neither Masvidal nor Diaz were title shot contenders.
Also, I don't believe Dana when he says that McGregor would get a rematch against Khabib for beating Cerrone. I think the reason why he says that is because if Tony wins, then the matchmakers could justify Ferguson vs McGregor, since "he was going to get a title shot anyways".
If Khabib wins, they would just make the fight against Masvidal. Unfortunately, Masvidal is too busy living in the moment to realize that he is getting used.
Lame excuses to put McGregor on top by any means necessary.
