What is Conor McGregor waiting for?

[theincognito]

Conor McGregor’s return to the UFC is the gargantuan sized elephant in the room that resides front and center inside Dana White’s office. The large elephant also shows at various UFC events, press conferences, and anywhere else the UFC goes. Until the McGregor return is finalized and announced, it will inevitably remain as a looming shadow within the company.




In a perfect world, Dana White would relish at the chance to book the return fight sooner than later. It rids the company of the McGregor shadow and also generates a massive amount of revenue for the UFC. McGregor’s return to the octagon will undoubtedly be the biggest and most lucrative fight of the year. So, what’s taking McGregor so long? He has discussed regularly and openly about wanting to fight again, Dana White says big money is there for him to take, and there is an abundance or premiere opponents that he can match up with. What gives?

Waiting for khabib and Tony to get injured or retire.

 

[Sakuraba7]

Want's to see if his career as an Instagram model takes off.

Conor knows Khabib will not falle for his shit talk.i dont know about Tony as i cant afford any PPVs.

 

[Draxton]

If he comes back now he will have to fight Tony and then Khabib.

If he waits until they fight each other he can come back and only have to fight the winner and then dismiss the loser saying they need to earn another title shot.

That way he only has to face 1 killer, not 2. I thought this was obvious.

 

[Rea_ctor]

He has a family and 100million spending money, wonder what it could be?

Long negotiations is not what we're into. We'd rather see him Defend or Vacate and go away.

There's just no-one at LW who deserves a title shot at the minute. It's a dead division.

And there you have it, folks.

She's waiting for someone to get on their knees and beg him. He's a true competitor and wants to be certain that the next contender deserves a title shot so that the integrity of the belt is maintained and that the challenger isn't gifted an unmerited shot. After holding it for such a long time, he wants to be 100% absolutely guaranteed that when he does lose it, it goes to a good home.
Connie is also waiting for Ireland to make a moon landing.

Last MMA fight: 2016

After winning the belt, he takes a break...says he comes back 6 month later...now it is 2018 and still nothing signed yet.

Stop making excuses...and stop living in the past

The fact they refer to that fight being 16 weeks ago is credible evidence of actually living in the past. Do we need to start a gofundme page to buy Conor fans a calendar now?
