This ? was literally like the real life version of the movie "The Great White Hype"
Floyd was James "the reaper" roper and Conor was "Irish" Terry Conklin.

Never say never ?
Conor got paid the highest purse for an MMA fighter, even though he went to boxing to do it
You dont think he wont try to change his position and gain leverage in the negotiations?
Ronda had crossover appeal, true
But Ronda never struck me for having business savy
And ? was mentally weak
Once she got beat, she was never the same
Conor can talk that ? , be humble in defeat and come right back to it
As a real champion should
He has way more leverage after this fight than that cave ? rousey
At this point, the UFC needs Conor
Not the other way around -

No other mma organization is touching ufc money wise, what really ? ufc fighthers(besides dana being greedy)is that wack ass rebok deal they got

Watching this fight in mixed company was the best thing I've done in a minute. Had a white guy tell me he bet on Floyd but hoped McGregor won. I was like, "OK... that's a first. Betting with the hopes of LOSING money."
His wife, who is white but has like 4 mixed kids, was all for Floyd. Her parents were there for McGregor and the rest of us was black, so you know what it was. Dude won crazy money off his co-workers but sat there mad as ? over the win with her parents. He started packing up ? as soon as the stop happened, grabbed the beers he brought, and started telling the kids to get in the car. Funniest. ? . Ever.
The ref needed to have his ass beat for allowing all the hammer fists and shoulder/wrist/arm locks. -

They really can't hold that ? L
They want that participation trophy so bad lol

Which he seems to be at least
If he goes back to the UFC, he needs to renegotiate his contract ASAP
He is the face of MMA
He has charisma, humourous and he dont give a ?
The white MMA version of Mayweather
He should look Dana in the eye, buy himself out his contract
And say im not signing another contract till i sit down with you and the other bosses
Then do a deal from now on under his promo company with the UFC
That way instead of taking home that 3 milli he used to get
It will be like 20-30 guaranteed
Bolded... uh, no -

Probley way easier said than done, ronda rousey had all that and was way bigger than conor is atm plus she had crossover appeal like crazy so if she wasnt able to do that then i doubt conor would dana aint bout to pay them dudes A level boxer money, besides what they gon do, leave if he wont? And go to bellator?? If you wanna be a star and make good money doing mma you pretty much have to ? wit ufc
crossover to what? -

a good way to do it is to give Connor room to breathe
...appear like be had a chance...
an your fighters can negotiate higher pay which puts money in his pocket...while ? on Dana in the process
I really don't see how this does anything for UFC/MMA at all.
Once everything's tallied up, Conor could end up with $100 million................FROM BOXING.
Not MMA.
This should shut down any debate people have been having about MMA being on the same level as boxing from a financial standpoint.
The money's in boxing, not MMA.
If anything, I could see more MMA fighters giving up MMA altogether and getting into boxing.
Either that or they're going to try to duplicate what Floyd and Conor did.
Only problem is, there's no other boxer out there who would be that big of a draw outside of Mike Tyson.
Yeah, I said Tyson.
Simply because dude could come out of retirement today and be the biggest draw in the sport.
ever heard of " getting in at the ground level?"
it's not about what "is" presently
it's about..what could be.
conor is talker an seller...as is Floyd.
future promotional ? for them both.
hyping fighters under their banner....creating a mma/boxing tournament... merging rules....creating a hybrid sport...
I can see this going plenty of ways.
this is not the end like y'all think it is.
I bet more mma fighhters concentrate more on boxing...having dual sport belts....an less on wrestling..
I can see wrestlers being phased out...for crossover money.
Dana didn't look like that for no reason.
that's the look of a ? seeing the loss of power an control.
all the fukkery an not listening is an will come to bite him in the ass. no more leverage. golden boy an arum losing their control in boxing Dana will soon lose control of mma...
guess who's next in line?
y'all watching a change in guard.
let's revisit this in a year -
