damndaniel Posted June 7, 2020 Report Share Posted June 7, 2020 https://twitter.com/TheNotoriousMMA/status/1269492917317533696 lol I doubt it sticks but kinda funny, does he hold the record for most retirements in combat sports? Or is that Nick and Nate Diaz? Tito Ortiz has had a couple. I know Sugar Ray Leonard had quite a few and so did Floyd Mayweather in boxing. Anybody keeping count? lmao Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kenlow73 Posted June 7, 2020 Report Share Posted June 7, 2020 He does that every time He doesnt get what he wants. Though I did hear something last week of him possibly signing with WWE. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ashbourne Posted June 7, 2020 Report Share Posted June 7, 2020 Not that it will happen but can you imagine if they lost Conor, Jones and Masvidal? That would be a pretty big loss all at once. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OptimalMMAPicks Posted June 7, 2020 Report Share Posted June 7, 2020 He must be in negotiations for a fight and using it as leverage to get a better deal. Smart dude for all the shit he gets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rambo Posted June 7, 2020 Report Share Posted June 7, 2020 Not that it will happen but can you imagine if they lost Conor, Jones and Masvidal? That would be a pretty big loss all at once. Those 3 could probably lead the charge for increased fighter pay. They have enough following to reach out to all fighters and form a collective hold out. UFC won't try to sell a PPV w/ 20 people nobody ever heard of. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cobb Posted June 7, 2020 Report Share Posted June 7, 2020 Negotiation tactic is my guess. He was calling out or fighting several people in the last couple of weeks. Personally I wanted to see Masvidal vs McGregor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bjornmma1 Posted June 7, 2020 Report Share Posted June 7, 2020 McGregor is more a (odd) business guy now than a fighter. Never liked the guy and now even less, unless he actually stays retired. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monsieur.Camara Posted June 8, 2020 Report Share Posted June 8, 2020 McChicken is a clown. Dana won`t let him do whatever he wants anymore so he is throwing a tantrum. He was a beast at 145, everything else except for that Khabib fight has been hand picked. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rambo Posted June 8, 2020 Report Share Posted June 8, 2020 McChicken is a clown. Dana won`t let him do whatever he wants anymore so he is throwing a tantrum. He was a beast at 145, everything else except for that Khabib fight has been hand picked. If you count hand selecting the champ at 145 in Aldo, then yeah...or taking short notice fight vs Chad Mendes, probably hand picked as well... like it or not, love em or hate em, pre-Floyd, pre-Eddie Conor was a fucking maniac. Conor went up in weight to fight RDA... who pulled... and we know he's a BIG LW... the dude is a fighter. or was. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bjornmma1 Posted June 8, 2020 Report Share Posted June 8, 2020 The 145lbs McGregor was a beast, a true spectacle. He looked drained as hell for his weigh ins, but he was far and beyond any other top 145lbs fighter at that time. Him going up in weight made him less effective. He must have felt that the money made sense and the easy weigh ins were a nice bonus. I would have liked to see him as a 145lbs fighter for many more years and dominate.

Zello Posted June 9, 2020 Report Share Posted June 9, 2020 Floyd vs Conor 2 maybe? Please no. I love Floyd but Floyd should either stay retired or fight someone real. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted June 9, 2020 Report Share Posted June 9, 2020 He is looking for the out-of-prime Anderson Silva fight ... so he can win and boast that he is the greatest.I hope he stays retired and especially that he keeps his mouth shut, and twitter locked about dissing great fighters Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
