Money money moneeeeyyyy, mmmooooonnnneeeyyyy.
I'm with on you on most of your posts. But I do think at this point Mcgregors name has enough weight that he makes good money without the UFC at this point in whatever venture he would pursue in that scenario. What that figure is, and whether it's near as good what he makes while partnered with them is definitely highly up for debate. But yeah, the re-signing making himself brand exclusive for the forseeable future seems to tell me he thinks he still makes more and gets more opportunity while staying partnered with them.I podsted this in another thread
Without Conor, UFC makes $200m + a year in MMA
Without UFC, Conor makes zero
Of course UFC will treat Conor better than others ... it is smart business.
But anybody with a calculator can see who needs who more.
They work together.
Because Conor is like a golden goose - anything he touches is worth a ton of money.
Money.
Money?money ?
