Conor can’t be serious with 8 fights

Surprised, someone with as much leverage as he has shouldve signed a shorter deal and then walkaway when his stock is still high. Though given what khabib does to him that would be rather risky.

I thought he was going to be this entrepreneur excepting endorsements left and right. Anyways hes essentially done what anderson silva did which means if khabib embarasses him and its so bad hes not even the same fighter standing up hes going to be quite a pricey bum

At some point during that contract we will all say remember when mcgregor was the biggest star the sport had Its what the ufc deserve though

Wouldnt mind seeing him derail lionheartsmith's hypetrain (if he beats no time) as a tune up tho

I think Smith's gettin' smoked. I'm counting on the hype train to make me a pretty betting line for Oezdemir.

He gets a whiskey ad on the octagon for every event he's in. This dude got himself paid to advertise his whiskey . That contract really does make me wonder if he was worried about how the Khabib fight would effect his value. A win against Khabib would blow his value up, so why negotiate a long term deal beforehand?

lol connor peddling cheap booze now? Remember when everyone clowned 50 for his? Hope yall keep that same energy

He stated in the press conference that they were going to promote his Whisky and have it plastered on the canvas in everyone of his fights starting with the Khabib fight. If he lays Khabib out over his own logo - If Khabib lays him out over his own logo.

i saw the presser and irrespective of that detail going from demanding a stake in the company to signing an 8fight deal/having them peddle your whiskey is still a comedown. Hes backed by an arab so i can only imagine what he is on per fight but that still places him as another chuck liddell, ronda, gsp when he has the power right now to be co-promoter

Havent liked this fight since it was rumoured, i suppose it gives the title the much needed prestige its previous owner lacked however its a no win situation for jj. And once she fails here her career is going to be uriah faber post barao level irreleventwho does valentina even have to face afterwards, was hearing chookagian say shes no 1 contender

The stakes are high for JJ especially. If she loses (with Val being the betting favorite) does she stay at 125 or go back down to 115 and wait for someone to beat Rose. If she wins though, she becomes the 1st womens double champ and bounces back nicely from those 2 losses to Rose.

Bellator has another event tonight.
Bellator 205: McKee vs. Macapa | MMAjunkie

McKee continues to be one of the better young talents the company has.

 

[aceboon]

Roger Huerta looks like a completely different person compared to his UFC days

 

[Skooby]

Dammit Denise why did you rush her? Stay on your feet...you're a kickboxer.

 

[Supreme]

McKee's next fight should be for the belt​
