[Vincent Van Goat]

Can McGregor beat Usman?

If Usman decided to fight Conor like he fought Colby, then yes

 

[af1 1982]

Can McGregor beat Usman?

Look what Khabib did.

think of that but with a much much much bigger man

 

[af1 1982]

If Usman decided to fight Conor like he fought Colby, then yes

But he probably wouldn’t. Only reason he fought Colby like that is because their wresting basically cancelled each other out

Can McGregor beat Usman?

he can beat the usman that fought colby, he cant beat the usman that fought woodley

 

[boxer15]

Look what Khabib did.

But, but, but, but look what he just did to jobber.

Yeah, I was being a bit sarcastic lol

 

[corgan]

Conor robbing money out of all people left and right with this kind of fight

 

[spizike231]

was thinking the same thing... jorge is legit and is really good... is there anyone that can stop him?

Conor McGregor

Srs.

 

[danger style]

If Usman decided to fight Conor like he fought Colby, then yes

Even if Usman decided to fight like that again, hard to see Conor actually beating him, but they dont think like he thinks so who knows.

What I was on during this fight

Damn, prolly ain’t even get a chance to take a sip of the glass

 

[big van vader]

It's basically going to go like this:

Masvidal fight

if he wins Masvidal fight; title shot
if he loses Masvidal fight; Diaz trilogy

if he wins either; Khabib rematch
if he loses both; retirement

 

[finessesosa]

Has options. Usman. Jorge. Gaethje. Pretty much anything's possible

he needs to stay away from Usman.

 

[af1 1982]

Conor robbing money out of all people left and right with this kind of fight

How was it robbing? It’s the UFC.
People complain when the fight goes the distance. People complain when a fights too short. The unpredictability is the reason to tune it. Not every single fight gonna be on the level of say Usman vs Colby

 

[you go boy]

we acting like jorge hasn't chalked up Ls before
not saying conor is going to win but he's a great striker as well

obviously jorge is not undefeated but he has looked dominate recently... and as far as L's hes only been knocked out once with all his loses came in decisions... so dude can fight and wont just get TKO... i am a fan of his but he can be a little arrogant so to see him be humbled in a fight would be hilarious... kinda want him to fight khabib and see what happens

 

[af1 1982]

It's basically going to go like this:

Masvidal fight

if he loses Masvidal fight; Diaz trilogy

if he wins either; Khabib rematch
if he loses both; retirement

Agreed. Or maybe the Pac-Man fight instead of retirement. His contracts are now on a per fight basis to give him flexibility and monetary leverage

 

[daprescription]

guy takes the perfect matchups. has people thinking he can take out top welterweights after he beats a guy that had to move down after facing legit welterweights . UFC continues feeding the man easy wins like Mickey did Rocky.

 

[ForNarnia]

I know someone that grew up in McGregor's town and they've even bumped into him a couple of times when she goes back home on vacation.

She says that McGregor is actually a nice dude and is just putting on a show most of the time.

I've always speculated this and I can't knock the dude for being a marketing genius.

Well yeah. Same thing about Mayweather.
Its all for Promo. But these dudes still scumbugs at times. But Floyd is laid back when he’s out in town. Got a cousin who works in the hotel industry and he’s told me Floyd a real generous tipper when him and his entourage are out on the strip

You realize, his last fights before this were Khabib and a champion Eddie Alvarez

 

[QU!K]

Damn, Pettis got subbed? I missed that, I thought he had good BJJ

 

[dman14]

conor could easily take another fight soon since he took zero damage
who is available right now that currently isn't booked?

 

[Barbados Slim]

Agree to disagree. Say cowboy won. Who does he fight next?

Ever since Aldo vs Cejudo was announced idk what a W really means as far as who you fight next. If Cowboy would have won I wouldn't be suprised if Conor fought for the title next.

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

Damn, Pettis got subbed? I missed that, I thought he had good BJJ

The first time he's ever been subbed in 13 years and 32 fights...

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

Jorge. Usman. Gaethje.
