That had to do with making the fight happen, getting the ufc on board, making a date, world tour ect ect. What you're talking about is after, but at the time he was given the chance, it made sense.Oh, you mean the opportunity he got that Aldo didn't? He's literally never defended a title. Every other double champ has.
He sat out for a year before the Floyd fight happened.
the floyd thing was unforseen. Im not rating conor for it. but it's no wonder, to me atleast, why the UFC would give conor that chance and not Aldo. Even when Aldo got conor vs aldo canceled, that was one of the worst cancelations the ufc has had to deal with. they did a huge world tour for that fight and it was expensive. one of the biggest tours theyve done for a fight.
